The Nethernet Moving Forward

Author: justin | Filed under: Content

The Nethernet is the product of GameLayers, Inc. The Nethernet is fun, but it’s too expensive for us to fix and maintain. We are working on other games, that we hope to play with you in the coming months.

So, with sadness, I have to tell you all that we’re facing a tough choice. We can leave The Nethernet online, and there will be technical issues that may prevent basic activities. Basically, a limping The Nethernet. Or, we can take The Nethernet down, and save the slow pain with a swift goodbye.

Maybe, some day, if our other efforts pan out, and the stars align, we can come back here and hack away to make this game work right. For now, I’ve asked my team not to spend any more time fixing bugs on The Nethernet, because we have other fun we are building.

So for the people who have been playing, and the people who love this game, would you rather we shut it down, or leave it up without fixing it? Post your thoughts in the Forums, if you can get through.
