Telltale Games underwent a "majority closure" in September that saw the elimination of all but a "skeleton crew" of 25 employees. CEO Pete Hawley insisted in the wake of the layoffs that Telltale wasn't actually closing, but would continue operating for the foreseeable future. Today, however, narrative designer Rachel Noel revealed on Twitter that the remaining employees have now been let go. 

Noel said in a September tweet that she's legally barred from talking about the situation at Telltale, but in more recent tweets she's made her feelings clear. "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe," she wrote today, paraphrasing Rutger Hauer's famous Blade Runner monologue. "80-hour crunch weeks. Mismanagement of some of the industry's top talent. All of those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
