Absolutely gutted to hear of Tim Curry’s passing today. So many of his roles defined my childhood, from Rocky Horror to Nigel Thornberry to Anatoly in C&C. Oof. A lot of legends lost this week 😣

Today, Double Fine Productions let go of 23 members of its staff.

As a small, tightly knit team, these actions are not taken lightly. Only the survival of our studio would ever make us consider such a painful action. Our transition to becoming an independent company means becoming a size that we can sustain.

The people we are losing were all important. They all made an impact on our games and culture, and they will be missed.

We are committed to supporting each affected person as best as we can, and we thank them for their hard work and commitment to the creative spirit we cherish here at Double Fine.
