In which game genre could you even begin to fit such a marvel? Welp, it seems like in the scam genre. The apparently ambitious project turned out to be completely unplayable, but not before raking in $62,000. Now, sure, $62k isn’t that much in exchange for a world-changing game, but getting any amount in non-monopoly bills is an astounding achievement when your product never looked better than this.
The only actually impressive aspect of this “game to make all games obsolete” is that it really does look not like an incomplete game but rather a mishmash of many incomplete ones. And that’s because it is. Skeptics initially found out most of the assets had been used without crediting the creators, but now they suspect some of them might be straight-up stolen.
Luckily, to make up for the game we didn’t get, the tale of DreamWorld‘s development really does contain every different kind of stupid imaginable.
The game’s mod team was composed of kids the devs reportedly promised actual jobs to, and there are accusations that the game got shady extra funding through nepotism at a startup accelerator. Stix, a popular streamer, also claims to have been asked to promote the game as if it weren’t total crap in exchange for a 20% of the game’s revenue.
