Media Molecule has been making headlines once more this past week, as just recently, the British developer announced that it willEnding support for UGC title Dreams later this yearall so that it can focus resources on a new project.
But beyond that, Mark Healey, Media Molecule’s co-founder and creative director, announced in a Twitter thread that he’s leaving the developer following 17 years there.
“So, following seventeen incredible years of co-birthing and building the media molecule – I decided it was time for me to fly the nest – set sail and chart a new course – and today is my last day at MM.
“From LittleBigPlanet to Dreams and more – proud to play my part, and lucky to be jamming with some really smart people – and such a talented community, I will continue to be a fan of it…
“…but a strong cosmic breeze is tugging at me, and my pirate heart is awakened, and I am not getting any younger, so I’m going to indulge in the winds of my various curiosities for a while, and see them where will it take me…
“…so it’s new beginnings, following one’s heart, exploring the unknown – yo ho ho and a bottle of rum – I’m off to a pirate adventure! (one that involves crafting a game).
Healy is actually the second co-founder of Media Molecule to leave in 2023, as art director Karim Etuni also left the company earlier this year.
