    After the disaster that was Clockwork Empires, I haven't heard anything about Gaslamp for like the past year.

    I'm hoping things are still fine. And I am still hoping for Dredmor 2.

    Does anyone know anything about what's happening? I know GLG spent a lot of money on Clockwork Empires, but the game just didn't pan out.

    Long story short, it looks like they're dead! :(

    Alas, it would seem that CE was a “do or die” kind of thing, and with it being not best received the company flopped, one way or another. The last active news is from a bit over a year ago, and there is nothing from beyond that point.

    For what it's worth, some of the GLG people are known to now be working on different things/for different people, which is a tad telling.

    They apparently hid themselves in shame after their second game failed to be playable

    I guess that is true enough.

    Dredmor is polished, has mod support, and tons of replayability. It's as alive as a single player game ever needs to be. I always keep it installed. As for CE, I still plan to play it a bunch with the community patch.

    I do miss the blog posts, though. Good times. Oddly enough, if I had known CE was never going to be finished, I would have purchased it a lot sooner so I could follow the development (and give them some much-needed support).

    Does “not here” count as info? Because that's the most basic we have.

    (I'm still around on twitter at https://twitter.com/MOOMANiBE if any of ya'll wanna say hi. With the caveat that I don't know anything about GLG at this point, I haven't worked for them since 2016)
