Stargate Worlds News - Source: August 1st License Deadline
Posted by Dana Massey on Jul 23, 2009 | 57 comments in our forums
The ongoing saga of Stargate Worlds may soon come to an conclusion. According to a source who recently left Firesky, the company has an August 1st deadline to get into financial shape or MGM is going to pull the license. Their last hope comes in the form of a potential $8 million cash infusion from private investors.
We also spoke to Shane Hensley of Firesky about this report and got his reaction.
“MGM certainly isn't thrilled with our current situation, but neither do we have any specific indication they're pulling the license on any particular date,” Hensley told us.
Firesky, which had several projects on the go, essentially ran out of money last fall, but rather than pull the plug, has continued to move forward. Most of the key personnel have moved onto other projects and many are behind on pay.
At this time, according to our sources, there is only one member of the client team and one member of the server team still at work on the game.
