Can Build A Rocket Boy save itself?

Can Build A Rocket Boy save itself? As the company installs monitoring software to root out "saboteurs" while attempting a "reset" for troubled debut MindsEye, insiders tell of long-running problems The latest twist in the MindsEye story came last week when staff at the Edinburgh-based studio discovered that the company had installed surveillance software on their PCs without their knowledge. According to Slack messages seen by GamesIndustry.biz, workers at the studio discovered that management had installed monitoring software called Teramind on their machines. Although the Rockstar veteran was very successful in attracting investment for the studio on the back of his previous track record – including a $110 million cash injection at the start of 2024 – staff say that he struggled to delegate responsibility and appeared to lack clarity in the vision for the game.
