It’s important for their mental enrichment.

They’re an indigonious species so the effects will be beneficial to native biodiversity in the long run as they form an important part of the food web for inland animals during their breeding season. The whole purpose of the project is to reinforce their numbers which have been reduced by fishing.

They were being transported to a specific river for release, so they’d return to that river to spawn. As juviniles they swim downstream and spend 3 years at sea, where food is much more plentiful - any that stick around in the river would die of starvation.
- Comment on Hormones are powerful drugs. Taken by everybody. Creating massive aggresstion, obsession and mental disturbance. What would freedom from its influences look like for a society? An individual? 1 year ago:
You body begins to die a painful but probably mercifully quick death. Hormones are vital to your bodies continual survival and even if you targeted specific ones, you’d just be creating problems for yourself. Elimated dopamine? Congrats you’ve given yourself ADHD and a host of other personality problems. Melotnon? Oops no more sleep for you, enjoy your sudden weight gain and compromised immune system. We don’t take hormones, we are hormones.

A shame, especially to be shut down a second time, the time splitters games defined my childhood.

You might also enjoy bitburner which is free on steam. It’s a JavaScript based hacking game with a focus on automation.
- Comment on Callisto Protocol Publisher Confirms 32 Striking Distance Studios Layoffs to 'Realign Priorities' 1 year ago:
End of contract stuff is an issue in the industry, with 15-18% being contractors, but that’s it’s a separate one - if you’re a contractor you’re going to need to find a new job no matter what at the end of the project unless you get lucky enough to snag a permanent role.
Layoffs for salaried employees at the end of a project is a systematic problem in the industry - This is a really (good article)[kotaku.com/why-game-developers-keep-getting-laid-…] from 2014 that’s covers a lot of the issues.

That’s not unusual for games studios after shipping a game unfortunately. It likely means that they don’t have another project ramping up after finishing the Callisto Protocol DLC.
