Outgoing CEO Jesse Sutton wrote in a letter to shareholders that Majesco Entertainment, in an effort to become profitable, has appointed David Rector as the new CEO. In addition, it is reducing staff and shifting away from producing retail games to focus exclusively on digital and mobile content.This includes Glue and the next A Boy and His Blob title, both of which the company expects to launch within the next two fiscal quarters. According to Sutton, the two games will be released on "all next generation consoles and in some cases, PC."A Boy and His Blob, an interesting tale about a jiggly little alien who needs a boy's help to save his home planet, is a 2D puzzle platformer with a a long history. Originally, it was the brainchild of Pitfall creator, David Crane, who created the game for the Nintendo Entertainment System.In 2009, WayForward Technologies and Majesco collaborated to create a full-blown re-imagining of the title for the Wii. This included brand new levels, new gameplay mechanics, and new hand-drawn art and animation. IGN gave this version of the game a 7.6 out of 10 , praising its art style and brain-teasing challenges.
