Rust developer Facepunch Studios has stirred the hornets' nest by announcing a prototype for a new game: an arcade space shooter (with action-RPG elements) called Riftlight, and it's bright and colourful.
Why are people angry about that? Because Rust is an unfinished game - it's still in Early Access on Steam. How dare Facepunch work on a new game when the other one isn't finished yet?
Money from Garry's Mod went into making Rust, remember. But why should Rust players be footing the bill for Riftlight?
In a blog post written this morning, Facepunch leader Garry Newman addressed exactly that concern, after sharing some rather colourful feedback the company received when Riftlight was announced.
"How you gonna start a new game with the other one not even finished?" enquired one curious mind.
"That's like taking a dump, putting that dump on standby and starting a new one. With the old one still up in there."
Actually it turns out Facepunch has three other prototypes for games in development in addition to Rust and Riftlight.
"Are we crazy?" responded Newman. "Are we doing it wrong? Should every person in the company be working on the same thing? Should HBO make one TV show at a time? Should Warner Brothers make one movie at a time?
