Good news has emerged from the fallout of the Realtime Worlds closure – as the promising looking title ‘MyWorld‘ has found a buyer. Former MyWorld lead artist, and now co-company director and art department head at Electric TopHat, Tahir Rashid has said the following:
“MyWorld was bought a few weeks back by Kimble Operations which is basically Ian Hetherington as he wanted the project to get to market.
There are 20 people left from the original MyWorld team that decided to stay with it. We are very pleased the project is not dead and look forward to them getting it out the door.”
Ian Hetherington was the chairman and chief strategy officer at Realtime Worlds.

Seemed like a really interesting idea so let’s hope it sees the light of day eventually.

is it just me, but every time i see the trailer i am reminded of LittleBigPlanet.
Media Molecule should have bought it and developed LittleBigPlanet3 around that concept :-D

Looked like it could be really interesting so I’m pleased it looks like development is continuing on this.
