Apparently Headfirst will soon be no more. Well, actually, they are no more. Some devs also confirmed this on the boards. This is a seriously ****ed up industry.

However, it all smells of mismanagement. First the Simon3D desaster, then a full six year development cycle for the only game that actually got finished over that time. Who the hell actually thought they'd make a profit from this? I don't know if Headfirst was still run by Mike Woodroffe, but it seems to me that he never figured out a way to get into the industry after it became really huge during the mid/late 90s. He did just fine with Horrosoft/Adventuresoft, back in the times when it took a year and only a small team to produce a high quality game.

Well, sad.
