Myst’s Anglerfish and the Vanishing Middle Market | Tech News
Description
The creators of Myst are back with a haunting new trailer for Anglerfish, a darker sequel voiced by Noshir Dalal — but it’s already dead. Cyan couldn’t raise the $1–10 million needed, publishers passed on the demo, and layoffs followed. This is just one symptom of a broken middle market: studios between big-budget blockbusters and tiny indies are starving for funding as VC money dries up, interest rates soar, and Steam floods with AI-made games. Even Cyan, riding on legacy success with Mudfish, can’t escape the crunch — and many others won’t survive.
