Callisto Protocol developers left out of credits

TL;DR

Callisto Protocol developers left out of credits Former Striking Distance employees estimate around 20 omitted from game's credits roll, including senior devs and key contributors Last month's release of The Callisto Protocol was supposed to be an unmitigated victory for Striking Distance Studios, the culmination of a story that began with the studio's creation in 2019.GamesIndustry.biz has spoken with five former Striking Distance Studios developers who were omitted from the game's credits, and say they've got plenty of company."I made a good amount of contribution... To just not be there at all is shitty" While it's not unheard of for developers who leave a project before completion to be left out of the credits, our sources confirm that the studio had no such policy that was ever communicated to employees, and none of the people we speak with consider The Callisto Protocol's omissions normal.Last year as development on the game was wrapping up, Schofield was roundly criticized for posting on social media about how proud he was that the team was working 12-15 hour days, 6 or 7 days a week, despite exhaustion and even COVID.Another agrees, saying management was quick to pay lip service to self-care, but less so to make accommodations for it."
