Anyone who is seeing this in 2026, read this.
This game had a huge scandal.
I'm an original backer who was in discord, but I haven't been updated until I remembered the game exist.
It had potential, but one of the owner (David) run off with the backers money, and there is no way to refund us.
Game won't happen and even their plush selling shop shut down.
I will copy paste a message from other users, feel free to read ;
"The CEO of the company (Fluffnest), David Pentland, was/is not a developer of the game. The co-founder of the company, Lily, says she was bought out in 2022 and hasn't had rights to her part since then. All of the development for the game was outsourced to Room8, a separate studio, who was frequently given different directions, different deadlines, and was NEVER PAID.
Currently, there are over a dozen lawsuits being filed against David, but a class action lawsuit is not possible because of the terms of how Kickstarter works. Refunds are not being given because the money isn't there, and in the paperwork of the lawsuits it says how David was using the money from the company to go on personal vacations and was embezzling funds from the plushie side as well as the game side for his personal wealth. Room8 has offered to finish the game FOR FREE if David paid them after the release, but David refused to pay them at all.
The court cases likely won't be seen until 2027, so if there is any legal resolution to this.
