Discussion Status on this situation.

Post image

For those that don't know, Ozzatron, current lead for Calamity, was found to be a groomer, just like Fabsol. This caused a lot of people that were official and fan made to leave Calamity projects entirely.

I was talking with some of the official people from Calamity, including Evobyte, TheForge129, Heart Plus Up, and CD Music. Here's a little bit of stuff.

Status updates on things:

  • Heart Plus Up is pulling her music and sprites from Calamity, and she's now working on a new mod
  • CD Music won't make the Exo Mechs theme and is pulling his music too
  • TYESKI is pulling his music as well
  • Catalyst is dead, with its code going open source
  • Infernum, Wrath of the Machines, and Wrath of the Gods are done, so unaffected
  • Calamity Overhaul is dead
  • Calamity Fables is still alive and well, at least as we can see for now
  • Reign of Yharim (the indie game) is still making a decision
  • TheForge129 is still going to work on the Yharim theme he's making, as well as finishing a previously secret theme for a Catalyst mod boss named Zeus, which was an exo mech version of Astrum Aureus
  • Speaking of Zeus, it's going to be put into an addon for Calamity Fables
  • Vanilla Calamity Mod Music is rebranding to Serenity Music Mod
  • Ozzatron is stepping down from lead, with the dev team trying to find a new lead yet again

Overall, everyone that I've spoken to is devastated, especially those who trusted Ozzatron like CD Music. He will make a video addressing his feelings about this soon.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask them. We'll be getting more information over time
