In an email to friends, sent to GamesIndustry.biz, Beard wrote of his disappointment at the predicament, but noted that he was currently building a new studio “from the ground up”. . . “It is with deep regret that I have to inform you of the closure of BottleRocket,” he wrote. “After fighting to keep the doors open for the past six months we have decided to close and move on. . . “BottleRocket was in business for seven years and I feel that we developed a sound reputation for quality and creativity. I was once told that we ‘zigged while others zagged,’ and I like to think that we shall be remembered this way.

Hopefully, Beard gets the new things rolling soon. Carlsbadistan is loaded with video game talent
