Wtf I didn't realize that it was daedalic games
They have a lot of experience in 2d point and click games with limited 3d, a project like this is insane
Goodbye Deponia...
They only published the Point and Click games and they will continue to publish games. A new Deponia game (surviving Deponia) was just recently announced
No the point and click adventures where (often) developed in-house. They also served as a publisher for games by other studios but the Edna + Harvey series, the Deponia games, A new beginning, the whispered world and it's sequel, the two The Dark Eye games and the adaptation of The Pillars of the Earth all came from internal teams.
Man the two the dark eye games (Chains of Satinav and Memoria) were really good point and click games with a good plot.
To be fair: Most of the P&C designers left the studio years ago, so I Deadalic closing its studio isn't that much of a loss.
Interesting, didn't know that.
The biggest loss was Poki leaving a few years back.
