All support will go through keep in mind that now all hands are on Recipe for Disaster. This means that the game will never be updated by our studio, Dapper Penguins. I'm not even a moderator in my own creation's forums, or received nor will receive a single cent of any sale that happened this year. It was sold for pennies, in a desperate move to keep paying everyone in the studio and not close the doors, preventing Recipe for Disaster to be left abandoned and unfinished.Īll this to say that everything related to Rise of Industry is no longer in my hands I don't even have access to the source code, art or music. I say this now, to let you know that some months ago, I had to do one of the most difficult things I've ever done: selling the Rise of Industry IP. Unfortunately, after over two years making Recipe for Disaster, the income from Rise of Industry has long since ran out, combined with the depressing, heartbreaking and saddeningly low sales and exposure the game is getting. The idea was to have a cyclic development: the success and income of one game, would fund the next one, endlessly. Of course, this would've never been possible without everyone's support, feedback and dedication over the years, ever since our humble beginnings on itch.io. Once finished, we spent an extra couple of years adding more free content and mechanics to what was an already entertaining and enjoyed game. Ended up taking over half a decade of our lives and countless debts and credit cards to make it see the light of day. It suffered many ups and downs, but in the end, it was an incredibly rewarding and telling experience. Rise of Industry was our first big project. This will be a difficult open letter to write. Just want to take some time to sit down and update you with the situation. Hey guys, hope you are all doing fine and you're safe at home.
