Newsbrief: Prominent game designer Stuart Black, best known for his work on first-person shooter
Black, has parted ways with
Enemy Front developer and publisher City Interactive, and has formed his own indie studio.
Black joined City's London team nearly two years ago to serve as creative director on multiplatform shooter
Enemy Front, but the Warsaw-based company laid him off a few months ago, and has brought in art and cinematic director Mark Bristol (
Doom 4) in his place.
Black has gone on to form a new independent studio called Self, where he has two projects in mind: an iOS title that he's considering making with concept design studio Leading Light, and a more ambitious game for PC built with the Unreal Engine.
