The full story is much more complex, and dark. Even one of the main contributor Argo Tuulik, went bankrupt and had to do gofundme for legal expenses. The CEO of the studio ZA/UM successfully created a narrative infront of well known YouTube channels like People Make Games, (On a side note, I always felt that particular reporter was so bad at his job), that the original creators were problematic to work with. A main reason behind the comoany going down is a convicted scammer who is a friend of ZA/UM's CEO. People who left the studio and tried to spin up successor peojects. I think there were three different projects announced as the successor. None materialized. Several other opportunists tried to exploit the people behind the original game.
The whole story can be made in to several seasons long TV Drama.
They're starting to materialize. I think there was a trailer for one of the successor studios that came out recently. I doubt any will be as good without uniting all those creatives again.
