Lost Planet 3 developer Spark Unlimited ceases game development, lays off employees

Spark Unlimited, the team responsible for Lost Planet 3 (better than most people think), Legendary (great, ridiculous concept but a pretty crap final product) and Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z (no idea, but people generally seemed to hate it) has ceased game development and laid-off most of its team, according to a former employee of the company that contacted Polygon. The news first emerged on NeoGAF, where it was revealed that assets from the studio's offices were being auctioned off. Spark's chief technical officer John Butrovich subsequently confirmed the reports.
