Lovely to see him take on a new game
Earlier this year, Valve said goodbye to Chet Faliszek, a long-time writer for the company who worked on theHalf-Life 2episodes,Portal, its sequel, and bothLeft 4 Deadgames. At the time,he said his departurewasn’t “exciting or drama filled,” and he didn’t announce where he’d be heading to next.
Now we know! Faliszekhas joinedBossa Studios to direct “an unannounced PC action co-op game trying to do something new in the narrative space using AI.” The London-based developer is known for titles likeSurgeon Simulator,I Am Bread, and more recentlyWorlds Adrift.

Faliszek added in follow-up tweets that the project “is not VR” and that he’ll be staying put in Seattle.

I think all hiring news should be proceeded by pet reactions.
