I volunteer time for a project called The Shotbow Network - it's a Minecraft game network. We've got lots of projects, and there are features etc that we hype up and then either cancel or don't release.

Inevitably, though, everything that went into building either those mini-games or that feature for another game ends up in all of our future projects.

This sort of thing makes it look like those projects are completely dead, despite the fact that they live on either in full or in part under rebranded names or driving Google's next big feature.
