Kerbal Space Program will live on as key staff leave the rocket simulator behind

The Kerbal Space Program mission isn’t over despite some key developers leaving.

Nathan Kell, one of the producers of Kerbal Space Program, posted a message to the game’s forum on Reddit today to inform fans that eight members of the development team have ceased their work on the project. The game is entering into version 1.2 right now, and developer Squad is rolling that update out to players on PC and other platforms soon. This has prompted Squad to assure fans that it has new talent working on Kerbal Space Program. And the company is even promising to increase its profile at industry events and fan conventions going forward.
