League Of Geeks Halts Jumplight Odyssey Development, Lays Off Staff

League Of Geeks, the developers behind Armello, have announced the indefinite suspension of their spaceship colony roguelike game, Jumplight Odyssey, due to rising operation costs, poor early access sales, and the withdrawal of funding opportunities. Over 50% of staff, including the entire Jumplight Odyssey team, have been affected, leading to mass redundancies. The studio assures that this decision will not impact the release of Solium Infernum or ongoing support for Armello. League Of Geeks plans to release one final patch for Jumplight Odyssey and will distribute half of the profits from every copy sold to the affected team members. They express hope for future investment to resume development of the game.
