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.

    NotSanguine, ladies and gents. He thirsts for your blood, thus his dislike of speech used freely.

    Also note that his earlier retort to claimed facts by the ex-dev was to completely dismiss them... using mere ad hominem.

    Interesting that you employ the same tactics of which you accuse me. Please review my posting history [soylentnews.org] and show me where I've expressed anything even remotely like what you claim.

    You won't be able to because I've never expressed such a thing.

    In fact, I've even mentioned just that in this thread [soylentnews.org].

    It's actually kind of cute reading your weak attempt to be derisive. Surely you can do better that that, can't you?

    Kissy kissy honey!
