Ontwikkelaar KO-OP heeft met de onderstaande verklaring bekendgemaakt dat de game Goodbye Volcano High niet meer uitkomt in 2021. Als reden wordt aangegeven dat het maken van een videogame tijdens de pandemie, extreem lastig is.
Goodbye Volcano High werd tijdens een recente State of Play-presentatie aangekondigd. Het verhaal gaat over achttienjarige, non-binaire dinosaurus die te maken krijgen met serieuze kwesties na het afstuderen.
Goodbye Volcano High komt in 2022 voor de PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 en de PC.
Verklaring KO-OP Studio:
Ok, so… about this!
Kinda goes without saying but making games during a pandemic is hard?
In addition to Global Events™️, 2020 saw us rebooting the narrative of our game (you can read more about that below). Those two factors have delayed our release timeline. So we are making what we’re sure is by now an expected announcement: Goodbye Volcano High will be a 2022 title, not a 2021 one.
It’s been a really hard year for many reasons, and the mental and physical health of the team has to come first. We don’t want to crunch, and we don’t want to put ourselves in stressful situations to finish the game by 2021 when we can take a little more time.
So ya! That’s that! Band-aid ripped!
We love the community that we’ve fostered through developing Goodbye Volcano High, and we hope it isn’t too much of a bummer to have to wait a little longer for the dino drama. Thank you to those who have been supporting us since day one and to those who have joined us along the way. We really appreciate you and your support. We love making this game and we’re lucky we have a chance to make it!
We’ll have some more fun updates we’ll be posting in the coming months that we hope you’ll like.
