Eat Sleep Play will now transition into the Mobile/iOS Gaming market. Co-Founder Scott Campbell had this to say about the transition. "It's a platform that is in our pockets almost 24/7, It’s kind of the size and types of games we’re playing,".
Scott Campbell also said that David Jaffe was leaving to start work in casual games (ie. Farmville, Angry Birds) but according Jaffe's Twitter account that is not the case. Jaffe states:
|
"I have zero plans to make games like FARMVILLE and ANGRY BIRDS. I never said what I was doing post TM (and I'm still on TM along with ESP for the next months as we launch it and balance it in real time and make sure it's a perfect game and continue to support it)." |
Jaffe said on twitter that he missed the internal game development side. Understandable, especially when you are trying to run a company from 300 miles away.
Don't panic TM fans. Jaffe will remain with the company for the next 1.5 - 3 months to make sure the launch is successful. What do you guys think? Will this hurt next week's Twisted Metal launch sales? Are you excited that David Jaffe is launching a new studio?
