Tons of games get cancelled for tons of reasons. In the first ten years of my PC/console career, I worked on over ten games, but only five of them shipped.

Late night chat thread: what’s your favorite game project that’s been cancelled or abandoned — yours or otherwise? (Was asked this by @SamPotasz earlier today)

I got to talk about some of my lost loves... like the original M-rated design for “Guilty Party”, and “Pegasus”, the 2D adventure game I prototyped after playing hundreds of hours of Threes.

I feel like the batting average is getting better now though. Making games is cheaper and easier, you can get to a fun prototype sooner, and there’s way more room for games in the market that aren’t aiming for the bleachers.

I’ve worked on my share of abandoned indie, mobile, and web games. But more often than not, they eventually get finished and released! 😌
