“Although Sweet Bandits had to close their doors, we don’t believe Deceive Inc. should quietly disappear because the services behind it aren’t sustainable forever,” the unsigned post reads. "We’re actively rebuilding Deceive Inc.’s backend to be sustainable indefinitely and support community-hosted dedicated servers.

Good guy devs and count me in for self-hosting a dedicated server.

    Studio is shut down anyways. They are literally just leaving their legacy alive instead of allowing it to be buried with them. I don’t think any costs are gonna be recouped.

      By they I meant the publisher. The studio is shut down but the rights are owned by the publisher and considering the article mentions the studio coming to an agreement with the publisher it’s very likely the publisher is footing some (if not all) of the bill.
