Hell Yeah! Wrath of a Dead Rabbit and Big Bang Mini developer Arkedo is no longer the studio it once was. The company is moving away from games due to a lack of funds. On the bright side, Arkedo decided to “disband the team when there still was enough money to get good conditions for everyone”.

Writing about the new direction for Arkedo, co-founder Aurelien Regard said:

“It has been decided to disband the team when there still was enough money to get good conditions for everyone, rather than replace permanent positions with interns and a bad atmosphere. As in any human matter, it is important to know when to stop, to get a clean situation. It is precisely because we did this at this time that everyone from Arkedo is still having a good time together, even after it’s officially over.”

Arkedo still has “two small games” that have yet to be released. These are due out “soon.”
