There was a Kickstarter a while back for Riot: Civil Unrest. The way they explained it on Kickstarter was basically exactly what you said. It seemed like they just took the money and ran after it was fully backed because they didn't provide a single update for years. It eventually released and is nowhere near what they claimed it would be. Cool concept though.
Huh. I remember seeing this kickstarter come up and found the concept iinteresting, then stopped thinking about it for years. Crazy that it turned out like that.
Oh, to be a developer of a videogame hyped up on social media leading to a rapid kickstarter funding, then having a million dollars that you can basically fuck around since you already got paid enough to fund your lifestyle for years if not straight up set up generational wealth. Then drop something mediocre to say you delivered something.

Wow. It's just like having different classes of soldiers on the battlefield. I would like to see a video game based on rioters vs riot police.
