In a sudden change of events, it appears that Frontline Studios have ceased the development of Sadness for the Wii.

A recent email conversation between a concerned fan called Ryan and Marcin Machel from Frontline Studios has revealed that Frontline have quite literally dropped their interest in developing Sadness for the Wii. Sadness is a survival horror game set pre-World War I and presented in black and white, like an old movie. Although this is a rumour for now and we need official confirmation from Nibris, it might be interesting to note that we haven't heard any news of this game or seen any screenshots or video in months. Here is the email conversation:

Dear Frontline Studios, NIBRIS claims that you are programming the game called Sadness for the Nintendo Wii. Most of us believe that this game is nothing but a scam - a big joke that NIBRIS is trying to pull over on us. The artwork and concept of the game seem too good to be true, and the lack of information on it give us the conclusion that the game is actually not in development at all and is just to gain attention from Nintendo consumers. I was just wondering if you can confirm that you are programming the game Sadness for NIBRIS and can for a fact say that the game is not fake. Thanks for your time! Sincerely, Ryan

And the response:

Hello Ryan, I can confirm that FRONTLINE is no longer interested in developing Sadness game based on Nibris' concept, and also Nibris is not authorized to claim anything on behalf of FRONTLINE. Best regards, Marcin Machel

Stay tuned for the latest developments.
