Everquest co-creator John Smedley’s new studio, Pixelmage Games, has closed, taking procedurally generated multiplayer RPG Hero’s Song [official site] with it. The game, which received almost $100,000 of crowdfunding via indiegogo last year, had been showing off the skeleton of its simulated worlds – think Dwarf Fortress Adventure mode lite – in Early Access for a couple of months, but on Boxing Day, a statement from the team explained that development had ended. Sales fell short of what was needed and all purchasers will now be able to claim a refund.
