And I am taken to a place

Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

people pledged $100,000 for a dumb game about being a bear called Bear Simulator on kickstarter from a first-time game developer

well it came out and it's... all right, but nothing special. pewdiepie made a video about it saying how terrible it was and now he's getting loads of hatemail and bad reviews so it's dead.

quote:

Well the game didn’t have a great reception, has a stigma against it’s name and there’s plenty of other problems so making any updates or going further is basically a lost cause now. Plus not skilled enough to make the game better than it currently is or write better updates than previously.

Was really hoping the Steam release would go well but why would it, should have just gave the game to backers and not bother with Steam.

Also don’t want to deal with the drama anymore. Can’t ignore it because that causes more drama and can’t do anything about it because that causes more drama.

bear simulator seemed like that guy's first real project, and surprisingly he kept at it and released the game instead of just giving up two years ago. that alone makes him better than like 90% of every other kickstarter game developer

Lol at the hate mail the poor guy is getting, I thought Kickstarter backers knew what they were getting into when they pledged their precious money.
