humble bungle has been Mostly Consistently Worse since ign started wearing its skin. nothing good can stay, i guess.
Like the only thing they have done a poor job in recent memory is maybe dropping the ball on getting Signalis in front of the Game Awards committee, but even that isn't a huge fuckup. There has to be more to this.
Update: Humble has now provided a statement saying Humble Games hasn't been shut down, but just restructured.
Update (7/23/24): In a statement provided to Game Developer, Humble said its games label is "undergoing restructuring" rather than fully shutting down. This restructure "involved much deliberation and careful thought, with the goal of ensuring the stability and support of our developers and ongoing projects."

...but it sounds like they still fired everyone? What on earth.
yeah I think this is damage control for the fact that they very obviously fired everyone
my stability is assured. i have never felt more supported in my new role of 'person unceremoniously laid off'
