Galaxy on Fire bought the studio Fishlabs - MacNN

If

iPhone and iPad users are also gamers, all publishers are not fortune, far from it. German studio Fishlabs, to whom we owe the great intergalactic saga Galaxy on Fire, was sold to a third party even anonymous at the time of writing. The good news is that all jobs remain in place, however, the founders of the company, Michael Schade and Christian Lohr, began to pack their stuff and take the door shortly. Employees will be “automatically transferred ” to the new owner, according to Schade.

In October, the company had carried out a cart of layoffs, 25 employees, including marketing year, the art department and programming had to leave. This announcement comes as the latest installment of the saga Galaxy on Fire, Alliances, is available for download for a few days. This game, a pillar of Fishlabs, is recognized for its high quality and has a strong community of players. Alas, in a market where freemium games and micro-payments are the law, it has become difficult to sell games “ old “, even if Fishlabs had begun to put (Alliances is free to play ). The problem is that Galaxy on Fire was not designed as a freemium game -. The need to buy virtual goods do not feel it is less so than in other

Hopefully now that Fishlabs has not been acquired by Electronic Arts, which has a habit of distorting all its acquisitions.
