honestly this whole office type thing is getting really fishy to me bc i searched the company that’s developing it on google and the only things that popped up are their twitter, facebook, and tag on tumblr. like it’s rlly weird that they don’t have a website or anything after they’ve been developing the game for a few months now?
not to mention they’re doing their fundraising for the game through paypal and they have ‘tiers’ like you would for a kickstarter and that’s just.. really suspicious to me especially because they’re super early in development. i don’t trust it
can y'all reblog this tho because i don’t want people giving their money to this when it’s suspicious as hell
Worth noting that they don’t have an address either! The only point of contact listed on their pages is their email, and twitter/tumblr/facebook handle, none of which actually have a named contact (it’s just the company name). There’s no available press material, no business address, no… portfolio material or anything to suggest they’re actually a legit company putting out original material? I mean, as far as I’m concerned, I’m sort of imagining them as like a group of people meeting up in someone’s living room to build this game on Ren’Py or whatever. I don’t think they’re acting in bad faith, but like, this whole thing seems far less legit than most people talking about it seem to think.
I also find it particularly sketch that their justification for making their black characters Angry Scary SJW caricatures is “we’ve worked with these communities” (yikes) when literally the only location info they list is “Chicago.” Like, this city is incredibly segregated and large and living in Chicago doesn’t automatically mean you live somewhere racially diverse. Watch them turn out to be based out of like, Lincoln Park or Andersonville….
can someone give some context as to what company it is?
The Office type was a dating sim btw
Okay that clears it up. i wasnt sure if this was an actual warning against something or some elaborate pepe sylvia-esque shiptpost.
