Phil Fish Selling Polytron and Rights to Fez

Phil Fish, the creator of Fez, is no stranger to drama. As such, it should come as no surprise to you that the troubled game developer has once again made headlines, this time making it perfectly clear that he is done with the video game business for good.

After expressing support for Depression Quest developer Zoe Quinn on Twitter, Fish found himself the victim of a hacker attack in which a whole bunch of his personal information was exposed. Following the incident, he announced that he's selling both the rights to Fez and the studio that created it.

He posted the following message on Twitter before deleting his account entirely:

this is videogames. this is what i get. this is unacceptable. this is not okay. terrorist. never again, you hear me? never again. this is videogames. this is your audience. to every aspiring game developer out there: don’t. give up. it’s not worth it. nothing is worth this. give up on your dreams. they are actually nightmares. just don’t do it. RUN AWAY

Any buyers interested in making Fez 2 a reality?
