Former Prytania Media CEO Annie Delisi Strain has issued a statement regarding the closure of Crop Circle Games last month.
Strain’s comments appeared to be prompted by a forthcoming Kotaku article about the closure that she learned was to be published. In a post on its website, she explained the reasons behind the closure, noting that the studio’s unannounced project was uninvestable due to the current state of the industry.
“The game did not have core features that have emerged as requirements to be competitive in today’s hyper aggressive market,” she wrote. “The game was just fundamentally out of touch with emerging player tastes and not aligned with the portfolio strategies of any publishers or investors.”
