Yesterday I’ve been told that my job is “at risk of redundancy”. I’d been working on a prototype for a new game for the studio, which has been put on ice. And they didn’t immediately have another work for me within the studio. On top of that our studio was hit harder than any other (20 people out of 80), likely because the studio doesn’t have any projects of its own yet (and instead all personnel is helping out on other projects such as Heavenly Sword and Killzone).
Now, this doesn’t necessarily mean I’m out of a job. They have hopes that they might be able to find a spot for me within another studio (the London studio) to help out on the SingStar games. But the only certainty I have at the moment is that I’m in for some major changes. And I have every intention to start applying for jobs with other companies.
What does this have to do with you or the site? Well, nothing except that it’s something big that’s affecting me. I’m not in any financial problems or anything and I’m sure that whatever happens I can keep the site going for years to come. So on that end there’s nothing to worry about.
So why am I posting this? I’m not sure. I probably just felt the need to vent and wanted to let you know what’s going on with me. In a way I consider all of you my friends.
Maybe I just wanted a hug.

Anyway, if you’re interested I’ll keep you informed of what’s going on.
