This month has been packed with significant game releases, with the recent addition being “Death Stranding 2: On the Beach” from Kojima Productions. However, it all started with a notable flop. After much anticipation, “MindsEye” by Build A Rocket Boy was finally released and met with universal disapproval due to its poor performance, numerous bugs, and underwhelming gameplay.
It appears that poor word-of-mouth has negatively affected its sales prospects, as Ampere Analysis (via The Game Business) reported approximately 250,000 players overall, with 150,000 on PS5 – an irony given that Sony had to offer refunds. However, only 35,000 players are reported on Steam, which is problematic because the developer’s strategy relies heavily on Build.MindsEye, a tool for user-generated content, which is exclusively available on PC.
Build A Rocket Boy has rolled out updates to enhance the game’s performance, but it might not be enough at this stage. Rumors suggest they are planning large-scale layoffs, impacting more than 100 employees. The consequences for the project’s future plans, such as free missions, multiplayer mode, and a potential sequel, are still uncertain.
