Hyper Light Breaker is no longer a Sweet Baby project

[Niteχ]

It's no longer listed on their website so it seems like the developers pulled out at some point. A dev has responded and confirmed they are no longer working together as of at least a year ago. Game is in good hands it seems.

game is die?

I seen it on the sweet baby inc website too. Hopefully it means heart machine is avoiding them like a plague.

I don't think they can hide something like that legally but I'm also not sure.

I guess we have to search the credits once the game comes out

I hope it really isn't, but I'm too suspicious now to buy the game when it's out. I'll wait for it to release and read the reviews for any trace of identity politics.

Same, and i'll see if some known agenda pusher was involved with the development, if it had this game won't have my .

Nope still not buying it. My trust is already broken.

Don't go that far. We're better than these people. And this is sometimes made with the best of intentions.

If the game redeems itself by not bending to these politics, I'll be more than happy to purchase it.

Dude im not buying anything that Sweetbaby has been involved with. Why would I want to give money to people that hate me. Absolutely not.

Because at least some of these woke people don't see themselves as hating. They see themselves as heroes of the oppressed. They don't see the harm they cause.

Sweet Baby, Inc. are the consultants. Not the developers. If they were taken off Sweet Baby Inc.'s page, it might be that they've decided not to politicize their game. So they probably don't hate you.

This grudge of something that was "almost done" (tainting the game with identity politics) is too little to justify engaging against the developer. The woke developed cancel culture and that's creating feuds in society. We do not want to reinforce these feuds, it will make everything worse. Let's not cancel them.

Folx... without Sweet Baby to vet the story and gameplay for them, the developers - many of which aren't recognized Persons of Color - might allow their internalized hatred of minorities (conscious or unconscious) to bubble over into the game and cause untold harm to vulnerable groups.

Is that really what the gamer community wants? It's 2024. Let's have games that are inclusive and everyone can enjoy.

Sweet baby is hiding the games they have worked on out of shame. This game is already tainted.

How about we let people make games however the hell they want instead of outsiders forcing their political ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ down the developers throats. We don't want consulting groups changing art to adapt it to THEIR POLITICAL AGENDA. You need to take a hint and go away, you're politics are vile and the world is rejecting them. Continue to force your ideas on others at your own risk, your whole ideology will be obliterated unless you wake up and stop trying to force people to think like you.

The Sweet Baby site is now hiding the logos of all the companies they've worked with and deleted tweets mentioning the steam group they tried to take down. It's getting shadier. Be on the lookout, wouldn't be surprised if they rebranded to try to hide again.
