According to reports confirmed by Build A Rocket Boy, the creators of MindsEye, the studio is undergoing layoffs due to the disappointing debut of their first title. This news about job cuts surfaced less than a month prior to the scheduled release date of MindsEye, which hit PC and console platforms on June 10th. Upon release, players took to social media to criticize the game’s problematic gameplay, riddled with numerous bugs. On Steam, the game has garnered fewer than 2,000 reviews, with a majority (37%) of negative ratings from gamers. In an unusual move, PlayStation even granted refunds to dissatisfied customers who had purchased the game.
The studio announced that it regrettably needs to inform its dedicated staff about some internal adjustments at Build A Rocket Boy. Although we’re trying to reposition roles for those affected by these modifications, we’ve started a formal consultation period that could lead to layoffs. This tough choice was not taken lightly, and we are determined to manage this transition with openness, fairness, and regard for each team member. More specifics will be shared with the team in the upcoming weeks.
The debut of MindsEye represents a significant achievement for Build A Rocket Boy, yet we recognize there’s still much work ahead as we aim to expand our community in the years to come. The hurdles we’ve encountered have only made us more determined. Despite being disappointed by today’s decision and deeply appreciative of our exceptional team, this adjustment enables us to concentrate on continuous improvements and performance enhancements for MindsEye, all while securing the lasting success of Build A Rocket Boy’s future aspirations.
MindsEye is a standalone game that offers a firsthand perspective in a third-person shooter setting. It’s set in the not-too-distant future, amidst the fictional desert city of Redrock. The game promises heart-pounding car chases and intense combat scenarios. You’ll assume the role of Jacob Diaz as you delve into the reality of sentient AI, a key to safeguarding humanity’s existence.
Previously, Build A Rocket Boy’s studio discussed enhancing performance and stability to ensure a fair playing experience for all gamers. However, the extent and intensity of potential layoffs could cast doubt on MindsEye’s future prospects regarding post-launch updates and bug fixes.
