Former BUNGIE Staff Create Moonshot Games

While I personally am not a fan of the Halo series (BLASPHEMY!!), it’s undeniable that the Halo universe has heavily-influenced the current generation of gamers and single-handedly sold hundreds of MILLIONS of Xbox’s and Xbox 360′s. Well, three former Halo developers have founded a new studio called Moonshot Games. Quoted from the press release:

“stars need not be limited to multimillion-dollar projects supported by armies of ground crew. There is a place in history for that small, nimble craft, built smartly on a modest budget, and piloted by expert hands.”

Moonshot Games plans to focus its efforts on developing high-quality downloadable titles. I’m hoping to see titles akin to Braid, Shadow Complex, and the just-released Lucidity. Here’s hoping that they can put their great minds and development talents together and crank out great titles.

    I’m very curious to see what they churn out and to see if they can have success making games that are not like Halo.
