The studio's intended third release, A Vampyre Story 2: A Bat's Tale, is on indefinite hold due to financial issues with its publisher, Crimson Cow.[2] With the distribution rights to the sequel still held by the publisher, Autumn Moon launched a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for an episodic, independent prequel to the A Vampyre Story saga called A Vampyre Story: Year One, which was unsuccessful. However, the game remains in development.[3]

Autumn Moon Entertainment will be licensing the Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island intellectual property to Bill Tiller's new company (which was co-founded by Gene Mocsy and Jeremiah Grant), Venture Moon Industries, for the spin-off Duke Grabowski: Mighty Swashbuckler![4]

Company strategy

Autumn Moon Entertainment is dedicated to creating original adventure games. Their staff includes a number of former LucasArts employees,[5] and as such, their games frequently reference LucasArts properties such as Monkey Island.[6]
