Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

the sagas of video game studios' decline and fall usually combine delicious drama with incredibly poor documentation, so it's always fun to hear The Stories from people who know them.

Well, I finally got it all figured out so we can stop this derail, but it was Krome Studios but it didn't drop them: it just bombed horribly and "almost" took them out. Got it mixed up for Pandemic, another Australian developer and creator of DAH!, somehow.

Looking into it, Pandemic went down for more business and political reasons. More banal really. Their sales weren't great for Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, Lord of the Rings: Conquest, and the Saboteur that EA decided to close the studio and EA absorbed the employees.

It's only forever, not long at all
Are we talking about Blade Kitten? The Furry Webcomic game?

We were, yeah. Got Pandemic and Krome mixed up because they are both Australian.

It's a fine line, but one that walks between the horrors of weeabo and moe and the horrors of furries and yiffing. One could argue it is simply trying one's best to avoid falling into either hell, but, in the effort, finds themselves stuck in an equally horrifying purgatory.

Unfortunately, this LP's gonna have to take a bit of a nap as our good friend Yapping Eevee has to go better himself for the next five months. Sit tight, humanity!

STAND TOGETHER.
FIGHT WITH HONOR.
RESTORE BALANCE.

Eevees play for free.
A hell of a way to start a LP, I know. But apparently my wit(?) is a key part of this project, and a full-time course doesn't leave much time where I can do commentary.

Also LizWiz is probably happy to have one less LP to juggle for a while, given the other half-dozen. :v:
