Crazy to be paying a team. He needs to stop that and work on it alone in his shed. Get it making profit.

He should've listened to advice

Today I remembered about this game. And given what has been posted lately, it was better if I had forgotten about it.

Well personally I was rooting for this project despite it being composed out of nothing but red flags.

Making games is hard. Business is harder. Such is life.

But $40k a month to pay your team is ridiculous for a project of this size. Wtf.

Wait nvm, did this guy not pay his employees for 7 months?

Bro, wut.

And he wrote this in a public statement?!

Many indie games fail to complete for 3 or 4 common reasons. None of those threaten this game.

I'm making this game because I want to, I'm capable of doing so, and I have the finances to see it through.
Short of me being hit by a bus, this game will come out and have all the promised features!

Reading the first page before jumping to the recent posts makes for a real plot twist.

He was ready for the 3 or 4 commons reasons. He just never expected it had far more than just 4.

The blog post sounds like the employees were so loyal they stayed 7 months unpaid, in reality he probably lied to them about the funding and keep reeling the payday.

If any of them sue, he's fucked basically
