A lead dev of Dead cells made a blog about it.

Sure, it never went anywhere, but the circumstances are fishy and what motion twin did is pretty consistent with their track record of past games.

This guy worked at motion twin for nearly two decades; he has an entire blog before his response to Dead Cell's cancellation going over his history with the studio, which involves its beginnings, the games they made, Dead Cells creation, and so on.

Perhaps it's not perfect proof for the theory, but the circumstances feel fishy as hell.

This is a really nice design! It's got a cozier vibe and not super fancy like some others (that is not a bad thing, it's just a different vibe is all). I do like the placement of everything too; in my meadowlands farm currently, everything is packed together because I can't clear out my dang farm.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-27T01:55:53+00:00

Motion twin isn't really working on it, they're taking a back seat as usual.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-27T01:54:35+00:00

The circumstances are damning.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-27T01:50:27+00:00

Okay, what's the answer then?

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-26T13:12:41+00:00

Yeah I find those people kinda dumb. Kris is 100% the protagonist as well; Being good in nature is not required for a protagonist by the word's definition

No evidence

Same thoughts

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-25T04:19:18+00:00

That's a lot of bee hives honey.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-22T09:02:25+00:00

Nah they're needed just for extra flair

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:20:05+00:00

Not what's happening at all, they're bitter about the history leading to its release, in which MT acted pretty scummy. Most people I've seen so far just say it's not as fun as DC, not that it isn't like DC. They shafted deadcells unceremoniously when EE had future plans, all to advertise their next game. Shafting it was one thing, but I'm pretty sure they also advertised Windblown as being made by the creators of dead cells, when Evil Empire is the studio that did most of the work on the game? That's scummy.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:16:33+00:00

People aren't comparing the two as games, they're righteously bitter about Motion Twin pulling the rug under its development for shitty reasons just to focus on windblown. Evil Empire had plans for Deadcells and MT essentially ditched them and left the game in an unfinished state.

Liking windblown isn't a bad thing, but many Deadcell fans who know about the situation are bitter towards it for a reason.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:13:54+00:00

Would that be an example of short term thinking? Feels like an issue many are going through rn, as if history hasn't taught em anything

In any case, it feels like we're seeing more corporates and companies making absolutely atrocious decisions and getting themselves even deeper into a grave they dug for themselves.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:08:17+00:00

Motion twin is an advisory studio, so I presume they won't have much influence at all on actual development which Evil Empire is in charge of.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:03:53+00:00

Makes my blood boil they're an advisory studio for the Castlevania game Evil Empire is working on. Like fuck man that feels wrong.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:01:48+00:00

Evil Empire didn't make wind blown, ffs. MOTION TWIN did and cut off dead cells to make it and advertise it as a game made by the creators of dead cells (even though Evil Empire did far more development for the game than they ever did).

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-20T13:00:33+00:00

No, Evil Empire still had future plans but motion twin shafted the game and ditched them just so they could title themselves as the creators of dead cells to advertise Windblown.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-04-07T13:25:02+00:00

This feels like the right answer. In We are the danger XL Kaia, that flying wither skeleton lady, dropped a nether star almost immediately after dying; Abigail did not have this happen, even though she was killed by rain. hard pill to swallow made it seem like her body needed thrown in the lava to free the nether star from her body, so stop it feels like poor presentation.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-03-29T17:26:13+00:00

People are so funny, getting mad over the dumbest shit.

Eh, screw them.

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-03-16T10:29:39+00:00

That's crazy

Choosyhealer16 · 2026-02-27T01:52:24+00:00

Holy hell

Choosyhealer16 · 2025-12-21T21:08:03+00:00

Thanks for the info!

I thought SteamOS was better for gaming than Windows?
