    Fez 2 was announced as “one more thing” at the end of the June 2013 Horizon indie game press conference, held during the annual Electronic Entertainment Expo.[111] The project was canceled a month later following a Twitter argument between Fish and video game journalist Marcus Beer. In an episode of Beer’s GameTrailers show Invisible Walls, the journalist criticized Fish’s response to questions about Microsoft’s Xbox One self-publishing policy change. Fish replied on Twitter with condemnation for the industry’s negativity and, in a final tweet, announced both Fez 2’s cancellation and his exit from the industry.[110] The news came as a surprise to the rest of his company,[112] which has not commented on upcoming projects other than ports since the sequel’s cancellation.[113] Polygon listed Fish in their top 50 newsmakers of 2013 for the social power of his “caustic use of Twitter”.
