Developer still around?

Their website appears to be down, and it looks like they haven't posted on Steam or Twitter in over a year. A shame -- I'm enjoying the game and was wondering if they're working on anything new. Clearly a talented crew.

i think they care about killing floor 2 more than 1 just like valve do they care about their latest games and the old ones are to be forgotten

It's a shame. I remember reading somewhere (maybe on their website when I last visited after finishing the game) that they were working on another title. I enjoyed 39 Steps so much, it hurts to have it become just a one-off gem :(

Hi there, wanted to mention that there's a new game from the developer of 39 Steps (that's me) on Steam. It's called Beckett (http://store.steampowered.com/app/588230/Beckett/). Hope you liked it and thanks for your support.

Looks good, will definitely check it out!

I would like to know more about the development team that created The 39 Steps, especially the great art and sound design. As far as I can tell, there is no page of credits, in the game, and the steam store website link goes to a sketchy asian drugstore.
(Update: I used the power of the interwebs, to find an archive of their webpage, when the game was first released. Lots of good information there, for people like me who missed it...

Would your team be able to get the steam achievements working for this game? There has been a thread on here for years but no response and they still do not work. Had I know previous to purchasing, I would not have. Thanks.
