"Doctor Who: The Adventure Games has been shelved by the BBC. Executive producer Simon Harris said that the firm will now focus on other Doctor Who game projects instead. &amp;quot;Right now there are no current plans to develop any more Adventure Games, so [The Eternity Clock] is the next Doctor Who gaming exercise and we&amp;#039;re doing other things,&amp;quot; he told Digital Spy.   &amp;quot;Obviously we&amp;#039;ve got the browser-based MMO Doctor Who: Worlds In Time, we have other plans for other platforms and formats and we&amp;#039;ll be announcing those. &amp;quot;But right now The Adventure Games have done a great job, and they&amp;#039;ve been done, we&amp;#039;re now going to move forward with the The Eternity Clock and we&amp;#039;ll continue to develop those plans as we go ahead.&amp;quot; Harris added that the BBC will continue to look into offering public service content for UK licence fee payers. &amp;quot;The Adventure Games are actually done by the production team down in Cardiff, and there&amp;#039;s a question about now BBC Worldwide is focusing and investing in these developments, that providing audience expansion and providing something that&amp;#039;s going to hopefully broaden the Doctor Who audience,&amp;quot; he explained.   &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s something we&amp;#039;re going to pick up on in gaming for the foreseeable future, and the team down in Cardiff are going to concentrate on some other things - which I&amp;#039;ve seen some of their ideas they haven&amp;#039;t announced yet - but there is going to be some cool things around that to continue developing what they do around public service, around audience expansion for the UK licence payers.&amp;quot; Doctor Who: The Adventure Games saw half a million downloads in its first fortnight, and more than 2.6 million downloads since its release in 2010. The last episode, titled &amp;#039;Gunpowder Plot&amp;#039;, was released in October and billed as the start of a second series. Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock, which offers Continuation Play between PS3 and Vita and DLC, will be available next month.
