Indie Darling 'Starfall' Acquired by Juggernaut Publisher for

In a landmark deal for the independent development scene, RetroForge Games, the celebrated studio behind the hit rogue-like 'Starfall', has been acquired by a major, unnamed publisher. Sources close to the deal, which is reportedly valued at million, say that the acquisition will provide RetroForge with the resources to work on a much larger, more ambitious follow-up project.

Fans of 'Starfall' have expressed both excitement and trepidation. While the prospect of a bigger, better-funded game is enticing, many are concerned that the studio's unique creative vision could be compromised under corporate ownership. The publisher has stated that RetroForge will retain 'full creative autonomy'.
