Aer Memories Of Old

Forgotten Key, the small indie developer behind 2017's Aer: Memories of Old is sadly shutting up shop in the very near future unless there's a "dramatic turn of events".

"It’s with a heavy heart we have decided to prepare a shutdown of Forgotten Key, the place we have called home for the last 7 years," studio head Robin Hjelte writes.

"We have grown from 4 to 14, had the pleasure to receive several prestigious awards, and we have worked with some of the industries biggest and finest. Now we are at roads end, and without a dramatic turn of events we will very soon close the doors to our studio."

The team had two new projects in the works, but they're likely never going to be completed now. The blog post does contain links to free demos, though, if you're interested in finding out more.

We actually really enjoyed the aforementioned Aer: Memories of Old, comparing it to the likes of Journey in our 8/10 review. It's always a shame to hear of a developer's imminent closure, but as we know at this point, being an independent studio certainly isn't easy.

Naturally, we wish the folks at Forgotten Key all the best for the future.
