    Two Tribes were proud of their achievements as an indie developer but Toki Tori 2′s delay & its lack of sales led to the company’s downfall.

    Indie Founders Martijn Reuvers & Collin van Ginkel will remain to handle parent Co Two Tribes Publishing; will continue to publish all previous games incl. Toki Tori, Edge, Rush, & any future games

    Both Reuvers & Ginkel will reboot game development under a new daughter company with a smaller team, focusing on readily available technology.

    They said: "As a result we’ll be working with a much smaller team on our next game, a 2D side scrolling shooter, which will be re-using the existing Toki Tori 2+ engine"

    @ Luigi yes and sad but the good news is the developers are not stopping support for the games made already, have plans for more games, and will reopen as a smaller more dedicated company

    I recommend they consider a merger with Nintendo as a 2nd Party Nintendo exclusive developer since a lot of their games have been for Nintendo with ports to things like PC/Mac. With Nintendo as their

    They've done a lot of mobile games I.e. 3DS, DS, GBA, GBC, and it would behoove Nintendo not to make them a 2nd Party Studio if they're open for it.
