This may seem like a silly question, but before I or somebody else changes some of the article to past tense (i.e "Cyan Worlds was a computer game company), is it yet confirmed that Cyan is gone for good? -207.199.209.110
Cyan laid off all of its employees, but it still exists as of now, according to http://www.uruobsession.com/?page=CyanFAQ.
- Officially it still exists, however asides from Myst V there likely won't be any new releases, I am afraid, unless they get funding. Jordi·✆ 18:25, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
- There's been unofficial word that Cyan is back, and has received at least minimal funding. -T2X 15:08, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
- Here is the latest rumor supposedly from an email that Rand sent out to someone http://www.totalvideogames.com/news/Cyan_Worlds_Survives_8584_0_0.htm - 71.112.195.87 00:23, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Music CD comment
I don't think the comment about Ambo belongs in the intro paragraph. It breaks the flow, and isn't related to Cyan Worlds at all. Ambo is linked in the Robyn Miller article, as it should be. OK to remove?
- OK by me. -- Jason Jones 07:52, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Older Cyan games
I guess this must be why I haven't found any of Cyan's old games like Spelunx, Cosmo Osmo, and such. I guess their issue with the company seeming to go under, must be why they were acting so stingy towards me in asking..why they claimed they'd re-release their older games, yet they haven't. As well as insisting that The Underdogs website take their downloads of the games off, because they promised a re-release. I mean, I hate to be like cranky. I've tried every reasonable outlet though, and have gotten no answers. Please explain what is up with this, if you know.
[edit] List of cyan employees?
Maybe it would be a good idea to have a list of people related to Cyan how have an article of their own on wikipedia? There are at least a handful. 84.217.129.165 11:28, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Spelunx release date
This page currently says 1992, while Home of the Underdogs says 1991. I'm not sure which is right. (The Macintosh Garden says 1993, but I assume that's referring to the 1993 colorized release mentioned here.) --DocumentN (talk) 23:26, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Insertion of firing text
71.37.132.16 (talk · contribs) has been inserting text (see here) saying that the development staff has been laid off. This addition is being sourced by http://www.spokesmanreview.com/business/story.asp?ID=230680&cookie=allowed, an article that is locked behind their website and only viewable if you have an account. The problem here is that in order to sign up for an account, you need to pay $7/mo. Since this article is basically unverifiable, it can't be used.I also can't find any other articles to back up this alleged firing, so until we can find some verifiable information from reliable sources, this text can't be added. Two users, myself and Islander, have been reverting this addition, and since we're both on the same page on this issue, I think a slight WP:CONSENSUS has been formed. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 23:20, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
