Did Future Games go bankrupt or something?
I was really looking forward to the sequel to Alter Ego and other new games from them. I haven't seem any news from this company since the release of the game and their website seems to be dead(it is now a general gaming blog or something):
http://www.future-games.cz/ If it is true it is a shame.. they developed the first Black Mirror game. Also, a partially unrelated question: Anyone here knows if Cranberry Productions has another adventure game on the pipeline? Really loved their black mirror games. cheers |

I don't know about Future Games, but Cranberry Productions has a new adventure game they've been working on called 'The Lost Chronicles of Zerzura'-due out in early 2012. Here's a link for more info-

Lost chronicles of zerzura sounds and looks awesome. Thanks, I had missed that announcement.
I hope someone knows about what is up with Future Games... I hate it when a good developer goes down, it is even worse when it does so unnanounced. |

Yes, I made some research and seems that Future Games is gone. It was closed down due financial problems in Sept 2011.
There is no inf in English. But google.translate helps to understand following links: http://www.gamau.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1744&Ite mid=146 http://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_Games http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_Games_%28entreprise%29 |

Well if Alter Ego is anything to go by, their disappearance won't be a huge loss. That game was incredibly abysmal. Black Mirror was great, though.

And then there's the other issue of objectivity. I am not happy when an adventure game developer goes under, not even when their games weren't my cup of tea.

Big loss indeed with Black Mirror,Nibiru,Next Life and Alter Ego Future games delivered solid quality agaming(in spite of their downbeat endings) since mid 2ks.
