Timothy Gerritsen leaves Human Head

No, this article has nothing to do with decapitated heads.

But Wisconsin-based game developer Human Head Studios did lose its head, and by that we mean their CEO Timothy Gerritsen. During his tenure as CEO, Human Head successfully developed Rune, a third person viking game; Blair Witch II: Legend of Coffin Rock, an action adventure game based on the movie; Dead Man’s Hand, a wild west FPS; and Prey, where they collaborated with 3D Realms.

Gerritsen left the company around November last year and sold his part of the company because the other owners decided to take the company in a different direction. Human Head curiously hasn’t released any comment regarding this, considering Gerritsen described his departure “amicable”. Gerritsen had been with the company for eight years, joining Human Head shortly after it was conceived.

Co-founder and Human Head president, Paul MacArthur is currently interim CEO. Human Head hasn’t announced any future projects since Prey.
