Brash Entertainment struggles, lays of 20 staff

By on November 7, 2008

Brash Entertainment has made 20 employees redundant.

The company raised $400 million to make games based on movies, but its first titles – Alvin and the Chipmunks, Jumper, Space Chimps – all flopped.

Twenty staff have been laid off, and Variety believes this may be the tip of the iceberg.
