Yet Another Game Studio Is Shutting Down After Making A Good Game

So far, 2024 has been a brutal year for the video game industry, and it’s not showing any signs of letting up. Now, Galvanic Games, the developer behind Wizard with a Gun, is the latest studio to shut down.

Yet Another Game Studio Is Shutting Down After Making A Good Game

Galvanic Games founder and president Patrick Morgan shared the news on social media. And he noted that despite the fact that Wizard with a Gun was well-received, the game’s sales weren’t high enough to save the studio.

“It is with a heavy heart that I announce the closure of Galvanic Games,” wrote Morgan. “Despite the promising start of Wizard with a Gun, sales are not strong enough to sustain our studio. The last year has been particularly tough for games. While we had numerous encouraging conversations at DICE and GDC, the process of signing new projects, in a good year, takes longer than the runway we had left.”
