Black Forest Games, German developer of early Kickstarter success Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, as well as remakes of the first two Destroy All Humans games, and, er, Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back, has announced it's leaving THQ Nordic after nine years within the Embracer Group subsidiary.
Following a management buyout, Black Forest has founded an indie studio group called Third Signal. "Some of the best games of the last decade came from teams of fifty, not five hundred," said Third Signal's founder and CEO Andreas Tobler. "Black Forest Games is one of them, and the right studio to launch Third Signal. Our vision is to build a developer-driven group and give teams the independence, resources and creative freedom to continue their creative legacy and bring their own ideas to life."
