Chris Taylor's Kings and Castles "On Hold"

Here's a sliver of information from Big Download, that steaming roast carcass of news. For reasons Taylor summarises as "a timing thing", Gas Powered Games has "put the project on hold" after a year of development. Details on the game itself are still quite hazy. We know it's an RTS featuring airships, dragons, knights, chickens and (presumably) castles that will let players take on the role of a king, but that's all I've got. You can watch the latest Kings and Castles development video blog thingum after the jump. It was released back in the Octobertime and features Chris saying the studio will be taking "a bit of a break".

I reckon now's as good a time as any to reveal that I've met Chris Taylor, and he is really is the character he is in the video. Right down to the axe and the exploding.
