The team behind The Day Before, the disastrous open-world MMO that was more in line with extraction shooters, are back and have rebranded. Oh, and they want more money.
Taking to Twitter, Fntastic shared that it is using Kickstarter to help generate funds in order to bring the studio back. A link to the studio's website houses the following statement:
We deeply apologize to everyone for The Day Before and take full responsibility for what happened.
There, the team has developed a "plan," which outlines how they'll overcome their past mistakes, as well as the next game they are developing. That game is called "Escape Factory," and it's "a physics-based multiplayer co-op escape game set in dangerous factories for 4–8 players."
If you have to stomp on other games to advertise your own, maybe rethink your strategy.
The plan, which can be accessed here, says that the team will use three principals to guide them — honesty, transparency and professionalism. Elsewhere, several "strategic objectives" have also been outlined, including a focus on community engagement, development standards and brand identity, among other goals.
