Over the past few years, the indie scene has brought the 2D platformer back to life. Super Meat Boy, Fez, and several other throwback games have definitely aided the revival, delivering challenge and gimmickry to keep the modern gamer invested in a dated concept.

Development studio Renegade Kid is shutting down after its two co-founders have decided to go their separate ways. They will both continue to develop games.
Very sad news, because they made some great games. I do have to wonder though if the closing has anything to do with them not making many games for systems other than Nintendo ones. Because sadly not many people have been buying games on Nintendo one recently.
