I'm one of the folks affected. *Many* on the list are gifted; their work was crucial to the weird little miracle that is ZP. Please, consider hiring them. Dust is still settling on my end, but my inbox is open.

You all know about the news already but our entire audio team has been made redundant. I'm incredibly sad and endlessly grateful for the people I got to work with and everything we created together. Don't hesitate hiring @eliforster.bsky.social @soundbear.bsky.social @rubenrincon.bsky.social

Unfortunately me and a lot of other programmers have been made redundant. A lot of talented people I've had the pleasure of working with over these past 4 years have been affected as well. If anyone's looking for gameplay programmers, designers, audio, etc. please do reach out to us 🙏🖤
