Gamers can be a unforgiving bunch, but it seems that some of them are willing to give developers of The Day Before a second chance. Fntastic, the studio behind the ill-fated MMO survival game, has launched a new Kickstarter campaign for their latest project. The move has raised some eyebrows, given the controversy surrounding their previous game. The Day Before was initially met with excitement, but things quickly took a turn for the worse. The game's development was plagued by delays, lack of communication, and accusations of using free Unity assets and code without proper attribution.
Despite the setbacks, the developers seem determined to move forward and make amends. In a statement, they acknowledged their past mistakes and promised a fresh start. "From now on, our development and marketing will be based on the principle of honesty," they said. The new game, which is still in its early stages, is also built on free Unity assets and code. However, the developers claim that they have learned from their past mistakes and are committed to transparency and fair use.
Gamers have every right to be skeptical, but it seems that some of them are willing to give Fntastic another chance. The Kickstarter campaign has already raised a significant amount of money, with many backers expressing their support for the developers' newfound commitment to transparency. While it's too early to say whether the new game will be a success, it's clear that Fntastic is eager to prove themselves and regain the trust of the gaming community.
It remains to be seen whether Fntastic's new approach will pay off in the long run. The gaming community is known for its criticism and skepticism, and the developers will have to work hard to convince gamers that they are committed to honesty and transparency. However, if they manage to pull it off, it could be a major comeback story for the studio.
As for now, the ball is in Fntastic's court. They have been given a second chance by the gaming community, and it's up to them to prove that they can deliver on their promises. The new game is still in its early stages, but the developers' commitment to transparency and fair use is a step in the right direction. Only time will tell whether Fntastic's new approach will be enough to win back the trust of gamers, but for now, it's a promising start.
