It was dumb of Tim Morten to just pretend that everything was sorta-fine, that all he needed was a "partner" and everything would just proceed normally, when he knew the reality of the situation. He could have been honest. He chose not to be.
Morten's moves are very calculated.
For legal reasons has to appear to be "this close" to nailing a deal. This way he won't have to refund any players' money even though the game lacks a substantial portion of the promised feature set.
I don't think this is true. I don't think Tim Morten is legally obligated to issue refunds to Kickstarter backers. He delivered a "product". Yes, it sucked, and the company went under, but he did "ship" the game he said he would ship. And IGN even gave it a 8/10!
i think Steam will get pissed off at him for only half fhe product working as promised. Steam doesn't like outright frauds on their store. It harms the Steam brand. I think Steam is the big obstacle here not the kickstarter donors. It is also an image thing for Tim ... he has to "die with his boots on". He can't look like he "took the money and ran".
Poor little timmy. poor tim. poor, sad, sweet tim.
