If the company ceases to exist, then many of its usual responsibilities don’t exist either

  The company didn't cease to exist; they still had (have?) employees finishing existing contracts. They also tried to raise money to staff back up and finish off the Walking Dead games.

    It sucks but if there is literally no money left then the company is simply not able to fulfill its obligations. Like if pay is owed where will that money come from? I don’t excuse management for a second; they must have known the coffers were bare while they were still hiring.

      If I'm not mistaken, here in Belgium first the assets of the company are sold off and from that money, first the employees are paid out their contracts. After that the money goes to other instances (like the loan by the bank etc). EDIT: They are paid out their outstanding wage for their performed work, not to the end of their contracts

      It is a criminal offense in Germany to not file for insolvency in time.

      In Quebec, administrators are personally liable for owed wages.
