**Vlambeer: From Ashes to Revival**
**Nuclear Throne Studio Resurrects After Premature Shutdown**
In a surprising turn of events, indie studio Vlambeer has announced its triumphant return from the grave. After bidding farewell in 2020, the studio responsible for cult classics like Nuclear Throne and Ridiculous Fishing has been resurrected under the sole ownership of co-founder Jan Willem Nijman.
Nijman, who now holds the Vlambeer name, has pledged to continue developing games under the beloved label. Not resting on their laurels, the studio is already hard at work on the much-anticipated shooter Ultrabugs.
**The Closure and Its Aftermath**
Vlambeer’s 2020 closure sent shockwaves through the gaming community. Co-founders Nijman and Rami Ismail had announced their intention to shut down, citing a sense of accomplishment and a desire to pursue other endeavors.
However, as Ismail later revealed, the shutdown was not as definitive as it seemed. The studio continued to support and maintain its existing games, while Nijman and Ismail grappled with the lingering legacy of Vlambeer.
**Breathing New Life into Vlambeer’s Legacy**
To prevent Vlambeer’s games from fading into obscurity, Nijman recognized the need to preserve their legacy. By purchasing Ismail’s share of the company, he has taken on the responsibility of keeping Vlambeer’s games alive and accessible.
Nijman’s vision for the future includes updates for Ridiculous Fishing EX, as well as ensuring that classic Vlambeer titles remain playable for years to come. He believes that games are deserving of longevity and should not be forgotten.
**Ultrabugs: A New Chapter**
Ultrabugs, the first game to emerge from the revived Vlambeer, is a testament to the studio’s enduring spirit. The arcade shooter promises to deliver intense action and quirky humor, trademarks of the Vlambeer experience.
With Ultrabugs on the horizon and plans for additional updates and preservation projects, Vlambeer is poised to write a new chapter in its history. As they navigate this resurrection, gamers can eagerly anticipate the return of their beloved indie studio.
