Wanderstop Team Is The Latest Victim Of The Industry's Crash Out
"Wanderstop was a pretty and surprisingly poignant indie game about living with burnout, where players help a fighter navigate her complicated relationship with self-worth."
"Ivy Road was pitching publishers on a prototype called Engine Angel, which looks like Twisted Metal mixed with a Platinum Games hack-and-slash."
"While we tried to shop the concept around and find a publishing partner, unfortunately we weren't able to land a deal."
Ivy Road, co-founded in 2021, is shutting down on March 31, 2026, after failing to secure funding for its next game, Engine Angel. Wanderstop, a game about navigating self-worth through tea serving, received positive reviews but did not sell well enough to sustain the studio. Despite a promising prototype for Engine Angel, the studio could not find a publishing partner. A final update for Wanderstop will allow players to access chapters without busy work.
