A new adventure game shaken by the accusation of the developer, four related companies announced an agreement and solved the situation. The accused distributor PQUBE withdrew

Publisher PUB / TONE PRODUCTIONS Worldwide and developer Moniker Studio announced on October 14 on agreements on the adventure game A Space for the Unbound developed by Moniker Studio. In this work, Tone Productions and Moniker Studio were accused of affiliated PUB's actions. This time, it has been reported that the problem has been solved.

First, let's look back on the background of this matter. Indonesia-based tone Productions and Moniker Studio announced on August 24 this year that the launch of A Space for the Unbound, which is being produced in cooperation, will be postponed. The reasons were PUB, which is in charge of the console version of the console version of this work.

According to the two studios, PUB did not hand over the facts while receiving funds and subsidies provided to support developers as a distributor. Not only that, PUB is set to the minimum guarantee that uses the subsidy to the developer (advance payment paid to developers from publishers before its release is offset from sales). 。 Instead, the profit distribution of this work received by PUB was set high. In other words, PUB has been pointed out that the developers used the subsidies to receive to make an unreasonably profitable profit.

In response to this act, Tone Productions and Moniker Studio have canceled the contract with PUB. However, PUB refused to return sales management rights on the console platform, and it seems that the release of the work has been incredible.

In response to the accusation, PUB claimed that the company has fulfilled all the obligations in the publishing agreement with Tone Productions, including the period in which the studio has postponed and difficult. He commented that the provided support includes a large amount of additional funds to support development, transplant, and marketing, and that the amount will exceed the subsidy (this time).

PUB also claims that TONE PRODUCTIONS has tried to change the absurd contract content. Although PUB has walked, he suggested that this was behind the accusation. On the other hand, we did not deny the use of the provided subsidy (related article).

Top About two months after the accusation, this statement reported that all four related publisher developers were satisfied with the release of A Space for the Unbound. The PC version will continue to sell the PC version, while the chorus worldwide, which was in charge of the Japanese version for the console version, will take over the world. In other words, PUB will be out of this work.

It has also been revealed that PUB has all been handed over to the Tone Productions. In addition, PUB will strive to return the rights of this work to the Tone Productions side. In addition, the agreement seems to have worked on chorus worldwide, and thanks to the company.
