Isn't this the game where a scumbag bought the publishing company (possibly illegally using their own money), and then ousted the developers?

Edit; Yep.

Whoa, I didn’t know that. I thought the game was well crafted. So all that work has been for nothing and the actual creators of the game won’t profit from it anymore?

[–] Ganbat@lemmy.fmhy.net 14 points 1 year ago

Yep. IIRC, they also released the game's photo mode on exactly the same day the devs came forward about this, hoping it would overtake search results and hide what happened from the public.

Yes

possibly illegally using their own money

You make it sound like a normal thing :P like he used his money to buy the company.

To clarify what he means is that the guy used funds from the company to buy the company. For details of how that worked out look some videos or text... I do not remember the details, but yeah is as crazy as it sounds.

I wasn't trying to make it sound normal, I just genuinely couldn't remember the details.

Pirate this game, it's amazing and the developer got screwed over and doesn't receive money from any purchases

Agree with others are saying in here. Besides that though.

Can we talk about how amazing Kim is? I haven’t really cared about most any other video game character, as much as him. I’d like hear opinions on what other game characters come close in feeling like a real person compared to Kim.

Wow this really smells like an ad.

[–] mojo@lemm.ee 28 points 1 year ago

This is a community about a game store. This whole community is an ad lol.

Seems OP was a bot that posted deals. They had their account deleted since this post as well.

One of the best games ever made.
