South of Midnight received fairly good reviews scores when it originally released in April 2025 with many critics and gamers praising the game’s unique art style. South of Midnight is set to release on the Nintendo Switch 2 next week and the developers at Compulsion Games are gearing up for their next project looking to hire a Lead Gameplay Programmer and Engine Programmer. The position will see the successful applicants work on a brand-new project which is said to be a new IP.
South of Midnight studio hiring for new IP
How are they still open after this flop? Also why is this here the game would be Xbox exclusive. I mean then again who knows with Asha?
This studio isn’t closed yet is more reason why she is not the person to save Xbox. Halo, Coalition, Arkane, Compulsion, Double Fine, Turn10, Rare, Undead Labs, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Machine, all of them and maybe Inxile too depending on their game’s success should be closed down. The Activision studios like Raven can take Halo and Gears and the only good Xbox studio Playground can continue making games under Activision same with Bethesda and id. If Bethesda fails again shut them down too fire Todd Howard, Chris Avellone made Fallout big not Todd and he would have did the same for Elder Scrolls but Todd stopped that too.
Praised? Yeah no everyone saw it as trash and most passed on it. The game was a failure. The biggest issue was the weird spiderverse type animation they tried doing where the frames were slower. Heard the ending was some weird stuff like revelation the main character is part white and her grandma is a massive racist. Canadians should not be making games about black American characters actually any American characters they have no understanding of it. Go make a Toronto GTA game.
The article says they were praising it for it’s graphics, not the game itself. The graphics look cool, but the game looks super bland.
The visuals are bad it hurts your eyes. Depending on who you are it actually hurts to look at. The game looks like below 30 fps at times. Once again the people praising it probably like spiderverse it’s trying to emulate that and fails. Clearly did not have enough people that loved it because it flopped. Also Canadian studio they do not know how to write this stuff and We Happy Few was a mixed bag as well. The story is trash but the visuals are just ugly and painful to look at. I think Sony put out a animated movie from Steph Curry same animation style and it flopped.
I never said the graphics looked great, I just said they looked cool.
You referred to review praising graphics. Take your L maam. No one singled you out.
Did you get your panties in a twist or something no one is targeting you. Also you said the reviews praised the graphics. What are you defense force for this game? Game was trash and looks trash. You like it go play it. Still weird a flop studio is making more games when Microsoft is on a closure spree.
They might make a new game with blackrock funding because sales figures weren’t good.
Asha already failing.
The artstyle is fine. Sounds like the issue was a bad framerate speed. I can’t say anything good beyond that, though as I haven’t played it.
Why are they not closed?
Screw the studio, it’s run by racists like streamer Pikachulita that fired the original voice actress for the main character because she “didn’t sound black enough” even though she was black irl. I hope this studio goes under, serves them right.
You Xbox jerks deserve to be part of a dying ecosystem. The game was great and all of the babies complaining never even played it. I love you Xbots drowning in your own drool.
