Jon Verrall – writer and cinematic designer at Retro Studios – has revealed on Twitter that he’s leaving the company after almost two years.
Verrall – who refers to himself as an “award-winning writer, cinematics director, voice director, choreographer, and performer for video games and Internet television” on this LinkedIn profile – previously wrote, produced and appeared in the web series LARPs.
He joined Retro in 2016. We assume he has been working on the company’s as-yet-unannounced new project; the studio’s last title was Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, released way back in 2014. An enhanced version of the game is about to launch on the Switch.
We wish Jon all the best in the future.
