A popular Steam game has been taken down by a massive attack!
The developers of one of the most popular games on Steam have confirmed servers had to be taken down this morning due to a"massive attack." If you've noticed servers issues lately and fewer people playing Goose Goose Duck, it's because the game has been under constant attack since last month when it began to explode in popularity, which explains how it went from 640,324 players -- the 8th highest on Steam ever -- to just 1,413.
"Our success has been incredible, and I want to thank all our players once again," reads the update."We underwent a massive attack this morning and subsequently took our servers down to maintain and reinforce them. None of your data was compromised." Hopefully, the worse of it is now behind Gaggle Studios and players of the game, as the former has hired cybersecurity specialists. Until then, servers won't be back proper until Wednesday.
