People Can Fly CEO Sebastian Wojciechowski announced the developer has cancelled two in development games, as well as laying off employees.
The Square Enix published Project Gemini and the self-published virtual reality game Project Bifrost are the two cancelled games.
People Can Fly will continue to work on Gears of War: E-Day with The Coalition and the prototype Project Delta for Sony Interactive Entertainment.
"Today we made a very difficult decision to suspend the development of Project Gemini and Project Bifrost—the relevant current reports have been released to the market," said Wojciechowski.
"The suspension of the Gemini project is a consequence of the fact that the Publisher has not presented us with a draft of the subsequent content rider to the Publishing Agreement covering the terms and conditions of further milestones on project Gemini and the lack of communication from the Publisher as to its willingness to continue or terminate the Gemini project.
"Project Bifrost was suspended due to the above and the analysis of the Group’s cash flow, which showed a lack of prospects for securing organizational resources and funds necessary to continue the production and release of this project.
"As a result, we have to significantly regroup as a studio and scale down our teams, which hurts the most.
"We wish to express our deepest regret and sadness over how these events have unfolded and our sincere gratitude for everyone’s contribution up to this point."

It sucks they had to cancel two games but I'm more concerned about the employees being laid off than anything else.
PCF laid off like 150 just last year and now add on however many it is this time around. They said this may not be the last round of layoffs either. That's quite the freefall. They also previously cancelled 1 or 2 other games as well.
Damn that's a lot of layoffs and cancellations in a short period. Hopefully they can turn the ship around.
Bulletstorm 2 please
PCF own it.
People can't fly. :-/
