Unfortunately, while trying to put together funding for the company, Wright got bogged down in a <a href="http://venturebeat.com/2012/06/03/game-pioneer-will-wrights-personal-gaming-startup-falls-apart-in-litigation-exclusive/">legal dispute</a> with co-founder Jawad Ansari. Now, says VentureBeat, those issues have been <a href="http://venturebeat.com/2012/11/01/simcity-pioneer-will-wright-settles-game-startup-hive-mind-lawsuit/">all cleared up</a>.<br /><br />"We are pleased to have reached a friendly and respectful resolution," says Wright in a statement. Ansari will go on to work at a firm called GCube Capital, and while the official status of Hive Mind isn't yet known, Wright is continuing his work with another startup, called <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/10/07/will-wrights-stupid-fun-club-has-three-projects-that-you-cant/">Super Fun Club</a>, and says that the plan for Hive Mind is getting to "where the operating team can take the company forward."<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/11/06/will-wright-resolves-lawsuit-with-hive-mind-co-founder/">Will Wright resolves lawsuit with Hive Mind co-founder</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Tue, 06 Nov 2012 02:00:00 EST.
