Seems that Tale of Tales have closed shop, that Sunset hasn't sold, pretty much at all
Their own site has gone down with all the traffic, but here's a google cache version of the blog (Thanks Patrick Klepek)
I backed Sunset on Kickstarter, but haven't gotten around to playing it yet.
It, like other stuff that came out recently (Life is Strange Episode 3) were put to one side while I played through the Witcher.
Sad to see this happen
P.S. It's 50% off on Steam.

After the barrage of sad tales about depression caused by indies turning into millionaires overnight, allow us to raise your spirits with a story about the liberating and energizing effects of complete commercial failure.
Having a sale is fun. Many people get to play your games who normally wouldn’t and you receive a lot of positive feedback.
But of course that’s not the reason for having a sale. The reason is always a need for money. And in our current economy, money tends to be collected from large amounts of tiny sources. It was a desperate move for us. An attempt to pay the debts caused by the production of Sunset and stay afloat while we figure out what to do with the rest of our lives.
So far a little over 4,000 copies of Sunset have changed hands. That includes the copies for our backers on Kickstarter. That includes the sale. There’s barely enough income to keep our company going while we look for ways to raise the funds to pay back our debts.
