MindsEye studio employees protest against a fan event

Despite a chaotic launch and several rounds of layoffs, Build A Rocket Boy has pulled out all the stops to welcome MindsEye fans this weekend. An all-expenses-paid event will allow community members to test out upcoming new features in the game.

This spending spree hasn’t gone over well with employees, who plan to protest their dissatisfaction outside their employer’s offices this Saturday, July 11, in Edinburgh. They will be joined by members of the Independent Workers’ Union of Great Britain (IWGB), as well as representatives from other unions and members of the public.

In addition to being hosted on-site, the players will also have their airfare fully covered.
