Gamasutra has quotes from Kevin Balentine, senior marketing manager at Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment, responding to recent reports suggesting the troubled MMOG may not see the light of day. Balentine says the lights are still open, and they have people working on Stargate Worlds seven days a week, though he does grant they are dealing with tightened belts:

"It’s true that the production of Stargate Worlds has been significantly impacted by the greatest worldwide economic downturn in decades, but we are still raising enough money from angel investors to keep the dev team working.

"We are currently negotiating several deals that will cover our financial responsibilities and fund the remainder of development. When we sign those deals, you’ll hear about it. Until then, we’ll keep building Stargate Worlds, because right now, that’s the only thing that matters to us."
