Like, 'Oh, I have to suffer and go make hundreds of thousands of dollars at Facebook.' Chris Hecker I can program a computer in the Bay Area, I'm not gonna starve to death. No major publisher would rip him off they simply wouldn't want to take the risk. However, Hecker was always secure in the knowledge that SpyParty was a difficult game to make-a delicately poached egg of an idea that takes a little bit of madness to get right. There was also The Ship, originally a Half-Life 2 mod, and Murderous Pursuits (opens in new tab) by the same team.
Sure, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood took a crack at the concept with its tacked-on but surprisingly fun multiplayer mode (in which assassins attempt to stab each other on cobblestone Italian streets full of innocent bystanders dressed just like them). Over the course of those nine years, Hecker has never been afraid of people beating him to the punch. First as a closed-beta shipped out to hungry email accounts, then as a for-profit open-beta available from the website (opens in new tab). To be clear, SpyParty has been available in some form over the course of its protracted development.
