在2025年6月推出的“火箭男孩MindsEye”游戏中,尽管资金为233亿英镑,雇员为448人,但由于有毒文化和接待不良,该游戏仍失败。
Build a Rocket Boy's game MindsEye, launched in June 2025, failed despite £233M in funding and 448 employees, due to toxic culture and poor reception.
建造一个火箭男孩,由前大盗猎汽车架构师莱斯利·本齐斯于2016年创立,在经过多年的开发,大量投资和增长到448名员工后,于2025年6月推出了游戏MindsEye.
Build a Rocket Boy, founded by former Grand Theft Auto architect Leslie Benzies in 2016, launched its game MindsEye in June 2025 after years of development, significant investment, and growing to 448 employees.
尽管筹得超过2.33亿英镑,损失达2.026亿英镑,但这场比赛未能达到预期。
Despite raising over £233 million and posting £202.6 million in losses, the game failed to meet expectations.
前雇员列举了一种有毒的工作文化,其特点是领导不统一、最后一刻的改变和微观管理,包括无法解释的所谓“李斯利票”的指令。 93名被指控管理层无视反馈和强制实施不可持续的紧缩期的工作人员写了一封公开信,许多员工每周工作八小时不带薪超时。
Former employees cited a toxic work culture marked by inconsistent leadership, last-minute changes, and micro-management, including unexplained directives known as “Leslie tickets.” An open letter from 93 staff accused management of ignoring feedback and enforcing unsustainable crunch periods, with many working eight unpaid overtime hours weekly.
这场游戏的收视率很低,这标志着本齐斯后洛克斯(Rockstar)企业的一大挫折。
The game’s poor reception marks a major setback for Benzies’ post-Rockstar venture.
