* ''VideoGame/Fez'' creator and Polytron studio head Phil Fish had historically been a controversial and polarizing figure due to his caustic behavior on social media and incendiary takes on current events. Things came to a head during a highly publicized breakdown after Fish was insulted by game journalist Marcus Beer. This proved to be the straw that broke the camel's back, and Fish erupted into a furious Twitter tirade during which he angrily announced that ''Fez II'' was cancelled and that he was quitting the game industry, citing that the hate and abuse had become too much. A year later hackers compromised both his personal accounts as well as Polytron's. In response he reiterated that he was done with the video game industry and was putting Polytron up for sale. Fish has since only worked on [=SuperHyperCube=] in 2016 but admitted that he didn't have the desire or energy to make ''Fez II'' anyway.
