Brash Entertainment facing lawsuits from ex-developers

We saw this coming a mile away. Following word last week that 18 month old game publisher Brash Entertainment had basically shut its doors, Variety is now reporting that two of the company's third party developers are suing Brash to get back money they say are owed by the publisher. One is 7 Studios, who worked on the close-to-release Six Flags Fun Park and also another game based on an upcoming animated movie 9.

The other studio suing Brash is Zootfly, perhaps best known for a game it would never make; a proof-of-concept idea for a Ghostbusters game that was famously shown on the Internet via a Youtube video but then got "Foxed" by Sony because of their own plans for a Ghostbusters title. Zootfly apparently worked on a game based on the TV show Prison Break for Brash but now says Brash owes them $748,000 for their work. Brash CEO Mitch Davis has not commented on the lawsuits.
