Valve Acquires Risk of Rain Developers
Risk of Rain devs join Valve
Last night, Hopoo Games, known for creating Risk of Rain, announced on social media that they will now be developing games directly under Valve.
End of Unannounced Game
This likely means the team will halt work on their unannounced project, code-named Snail, and possibly marks the end of Hopoo Games as an independent studio.
Valve's Strategic Move
The move appears logical for Valve, a company already stretched thin with efforts to support existing projects, manage Steam, and develop titles like Deadlock and the much-speculated Half-Life 3.
