A Subnautica developer has reportedly been fired over controversial comments he previously posted to Twitter, with the game's sound designer Simon Chylinski tweeting that he has been ousted from his position at Unknown Worlds Entertainment.

Chylinski has come under fire recently after a number of recent comments he posted to Twitter were placed under the spotlight. The sound designer took to Twitter yesterday to post an update on his status with Unknown Worlds Entertainment, tweeting: "so. i just got fired.. :("

Isn't it illegal to fire someone for their political views in California? Unknown Worlds Entertainment may be in for one hell of an uncapped damages lawsuit.

    Correction: it's not even California's website for the second issue. It's still SN's shit programming. After fixing the ampersand in the URL, it included it in the visible portion but removed it from the HREF tag.

    Seriously, I'd link you guys to Perl's documentation on escaping/unescaping so you could fix this amateur hour nonsense, but the fucking URL probably wouldn't work.
