Former Striking Distance employees have not been credited for their work on The Callisto Protocol.
Multiple former Striking Distance employees have not been credited for their work on The Callisto Protocol, a decision described as « egregious » by one developer.
GamesIndustry.biz revealed that « roughly 20 people » who contributed their time and effort working on the game did not get mentioned in its end credits. This reportedly included senior developers, leads, directors and « really core people who built the studio up ».
When asked about this snub, one source told the publication it « stings » to not see their work credited.
« It sucks. I made a good amount of contribution and worked on it for [a length of time], » they stated. « To just not be there at all is shitty. »
One former developer said they would understand if someone such as a « contractor » did not receive credit for their work on a game if it had only been a « small amount… for a few months and [they were] let off ».
However, in this case, the same source stated those affected were « full-time employees with over a year invested in the title, and had a hand in significant parts of the product ».
