Games industry opens arms to Telltale employees with #telltalejobs

Developers have responded with support and job advertisements in the wake of the sudden closure of Telltale Games.

The California-based studio laid off roughly 225 employees at the end of last week, ahead of likely studio closure. Only a 25-person skeleton crew remains to tidy up remaining projects.

With developers made redundant without prior warning or severance pay, many in the industry have been attempting to help former staff find new jobs as quickly as possible.

Online, the hashtag #telltalejobs is full of offers from studios around the globe encouraging former Telltale staff to get in touch.
