Another independent mobile developer has bitten the dust. Danish firm 3rd Person has closed its doors, after failing to secure new investment.
The company was responsible for the innovative Misslead series (pictured), which were part mobile game and part soap opera, driven by narrative rather than gameplay.
3rd Person was hoping to develop the series, as well as work on other 'dialogue based mobile games', but without investment, the company has been forced to shut down.
According to former CEO Lars Loppnau, the company isn't the only Danish developer to have struggled, at a tough time for the industry there.
However, Loppnau hasn't left the mobile games industry entirely: he'll be giving a presentation at the Danish entrepreneurial conference Ivaerk08 titled 'Mobile Games Are Not For Kids'.
