Sparkplay Media Going Out Of Business

Hmm, it has been some time since i looked around in the "mud community" due to other interests.

So, one of the things I did remember was Matt from IRE doing this MMORPG earth eternal with a huge load of financing ("Sparkplay secured $4.25 million in financing in early 2008"). I was impressed and have dropped by the game site from time to time to check how the game was going. Unfortunately my character seemed to be mostly alone, which was a pity.

Now that i couldn't reach the site i googled to see what was happening and came to this news post
"Sparkplay Media Going Out Of Business"



That is sad. Hope that money wasn't wasted on nothing and that the game/work will be used by someone else.

I tried searching the forums for posts about it but couldn't find any. So I'm putting this up here for anyone else that might have missed it.

I enjoyed checking out the game from time to time, even though I did not really play it. I was sad to see this and hope Matt and the game crew good luck in the future! That which does not kill us makes us stronger!

That article is almost a year old.

Earth Eternal was sold to a Japanese company:
