One of the most noteworthy reveals at Microsoft's 2017 E3 conference was for The Last Night, a cyberpunk side-scroller with stunning neon art. Since its reveal almost two years ago, the game has been fairly quiet, until now. And it's not good news.

As reported by PCGamer, creator Tim Soret took to Twitter to reveal a range of issues hindering the game's development, while noting the desire for further funding.

Then...

- We encountered massive business, legal & funding issues we can't talk about.

- We had to cancel a new trailer of The Last Night at The Game Awards 😰

- We're currently raising funds, so get in touch: hello@oddtales.net — timsoret (@timsoret) December 31, 2018

Microsoft describes The Last Night as a 2D "open world" complete with a branching narrative.
