Yes; I thought this was the new team, but I may have gotten them mixed up. If the original team is gone then even worse - at least ksp is playable.
Sort-of related thought: seems a few projects have released games with serious performance issues (ksp2, Cities: skylines 2). Both use Unity. And they've hinted at a lack of expected engine features. I wonder if Unity promised multithreaded performance improvements on their roadmap to their customers and didn't deliver.
@jannem@glassbottommeg skylines 2 was horrifyingly bad, no way that was just a simple multithreading fix away from working, that thing was chopping between 5-40fps on my 4090+5950x w/ 128 gigs of ram even put down to 1080p... unity's performance IS pretty garbage but not THAT garbage, paradox/colossal rushed it out the door unfinished is all, i mean it doesn't even have actual simulation going on, none of the stats actually work.
@raptor85@jannem Yep, this. You could totally make Skylines 2 with Unity. I mean I ditched it, but that's due to future planning - right now, sure.
They just... uh... did not. Or I mean maybe they would have on a longer timeline, but they shipped it before putting in that last year of polishing and tightening.
They were literal contemporaries! OlliOlli launched like a year after I founded my studio. Their work inspired SkateBIRD a bit, then we were launching just a bit before OlliOlli World, just! Like. AAAAAAAAAAAA.
