Republik Games Hits Funding Snag; Company to Suspend Production on Spend the Night Game announces that Republic Games is suspending development of Spend the Night due to a failure to inspire a third round of funding for the "erotically-charged game" in spite of their best efforts:

"The past few weeks have been a rollercoaster for the company" said CEO, Robert Coshland. "We had a single day record of 1.8 million hits on our website, we're being included in a documentary on the future of video games, and we have over 100 people join our mailing list everyday. Unfortunately game development is expensive and attention doesn't translate into operational funds. " Coshland indicated that 12 people were affected by the shut down. "Republik Games intends to focus on raising new capital. It's not just an incredible product-it's a solid business proposition and we have the research, the materials, and the numbers to back it up."
