Steam FPS 游戏开发中断，开发人员因入狱 3 年而停工

The Steam FPS title, Fortune's Run, faces an indefinite delay due to its sole developer, Dizzie, receiving a three-year prison sentence. This unexpected setback puts the game, currently in early access with a "Very Positive" Steam rating, into a prolonged holding pattern.

While the game had initially enjoyed positive reception for its nostalgic art style and gameplay, development has ground to a halt. Dizzie revealed the sentence in a January 14th Steam update, stating the crime predated the game's development and occurred during a period of their life characterized by violence. Although the specific crime remains undisclosed, this situation is unusual in game development. While delays are common, they typically stem from financial or technical issues, not incarceration.

Prior to this announcement, Fortune's Run had a second team member, but they departed the project following a difficult surgery and subsequent loss of interest in game development. This leaves Dizzie as the sole developer, making the three-year prison sentence, beginning February 2025, a complete development standstill. The game's 2026 early access exit target is now highly improbable. However, lengthy early access periods are not uncommon in the indie game sphere, with some titles taking five years or more.

Dizzie assures fans that the game's completion remains a goal upon release from prison. The current early access build will remain playable, and players seeking similar titles can explore other early access shooters available on Steam. The future of Fortune's Run remains uncertain, but the possibility of its eventual completion persists.
