Apologies if this has been overdone/is a sore point in any way/pointless, but what happened to Gavin (the lead developer).

Did Jig ever get in contact with him? Was there any explanation of what happened?

It just seems strange considering the system Gavin worked on was so near DEMO completion and he was into interviews (so seeminly very serious about the issue).

Again apologies if this treads on toes in anyway. I'm just genuinely interested.

I guess we can see the benefits of his disappearance, in no longer one game but 4 (albeit looking to the future)

I presume life got in the way so put the project on hold till he had a less demanding life.
