Looking Glass Gone

Thief developer Looking Glass is closing its doors. The decision was made in a company meeting yesterday, and as of today the company has closed and all ongoing projects have been cancelled. Despite strong sales of Thief and Thief 2, Looking Glass has been struggling financially. The company's hopes for a capital infusion from publisher Eidos apparently fell victim of Eido's own financial problems. Amongst the cancelled titles is Thief 3, though in an open letter to fans, designer Randy Smith expressed doubts that the game would ever see the light of day.
