Warner Bros. has decided not to take that ball and return control to the original developer instead of going home with adult swimming games

Warner Bros.Remember that we modified the entire catalog of Adult Swim Games indies to be permanently sent to the shadow Realm.That fate seems to have been averted because it was too painful to keep processing developer loyalty checks.The game remains on Steam, and the creators say that they have regained full control.

"The duck game is safe," creator Landon Podbielsky wrote on Twitter. More details soon however, an email from Warner finally came. The game is being brought back to Corptron along with the store pages on all platforms, but it doesn't go anywhere.

"Thank you all...I hope everyone else received the same email."

It certainly looks like they did: As reported by game developers, small radio big TV developer Owen Deary tweeted that he was taking back ownership and control of the store list from WB as well. Browsing Adult Swim Games' publisher page shows that its catalog is alive despite reaching the 60-day delisting mark initially designated by wb, and other games on the initiative, like Soundodger+ and Kingsway, are still available for purchase.

Adult swimming games seem to have been rewound in 2020 and 21 years, and the last nail in the coffin is the pivot of parent developer Wb following the relative failure of the free-to-play and live-service game Suicide Squad: Kill Justice League. The publisher initially rejected the developer's request to transfer ownership of the game, arguing that it "made a universal decision not to return the game to its original studio and did not have the resources to do so.""

So I think everything will be fine, but publishers will stop threatening to do something very unpopular and hostile to consumers before reversing their decision in the last seconds."It's been an incredible few weeks to see that practice actually take place, and we believe it will make it up any time soon. There was no reason to do so.

Outside of the game, WB has in recent years announced that it will release a new version of Batgirl and Coyote vs.Acme has canceled the release of two big budget films that will go to vault in exchange for a tax write-off from Uncle Sam. Say, if my taxes effectively paid for those movies, why can't I watch them for free?
