What a great week!
Wow! We at Near Death Studios couldn’t be happier! The fan and press reaction to our purchase of Meridian 59 has been astounding. Our mailboxes are full of well wishes and offers to help. More people are subscribing to the mailing list every day. Thanks for the support and keep telling your friends that Meridian 59 is coming back!

Now the real work begins
Although the process of purchasing Meridian 59 took months of work, the real work starts now. We’ve received all of the physical assets and have begun going through them. Meridian 59 was in constant development for over 5 years so there’s tons of code, art, and documentation. As we go through the latest versions of the code and art we’re forming our plan and picking out showstopper bugs we need to address before going live. ...but of course, we’re not leaving you out!

While that’s going on, we’re also working on building our infrastructure for running the game service. That includes creating message boards and poll systems so that you can help us shape our re-launch and future updates. The existing “release news now” website will be replaced with a more functional and content rich website. The billing system is being built and customer service plans are being created.
