So what was his next move? To make a fucking documentary about it and charge TEN DOLLARS for it on Steam.

It wasn't that, it was a narrated story of "THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO HAVE A KID WITH CANCER, IT FEELS SUPER SHITTY, DOESN'T IT?"

I would have left it at that, but it's fucking obvious now he was actually in it for the money if he's yelling out about streamers costing him money, so he's a fucking shitbag who deserves all the hate that can be heaped upon him for profiteering off his dead kid.

Wouldn't say it's a cash grab a lot of work went into it. But some can be. I could watch a lot of games like dreaming Sarah, Lisa etc but I don't to support the dev. If you don't want to pay much get them on sale.

He already has two other kids.

He isn't fighting anyone. He voiced his opinion once about what the causes of the low sales were. Asked streamers to add a link to the game and a link to give a donation. What's the big fucking overreaction about this for. I hate entitled youtuber cunts.

In no way should anyone pay $10 to hop on this greedy cunt's pity party for internet handouts. His story is not unique. It's not a good film. He is nothing and for being a Christfag, it's painfully ironic that he let his own son die for his sins and still hasn't learned anything.

People woudlve taken this seriously if it was a short animation. Making a non game was a big mistake, and actually quite distasteful actually, people go into games expecting gameplay of some variety, and when its not there, no matter what the backstory of the game is, its just a bad game, people will start to attack it because its bad, theres no hiding behidn the reason the game was made, the game is bad and youre going to get accosted for making a bad game.
Again, if this was an animation it wouldve been treated with more respect and actually a decent little thing, much like most story driven vidya really, just make a fucking animation, why make a fucking game without gameplay.

Jesus fucking christ are you fucking serious.

Do you really think that anything that is made by a lot of time of someone must be compensated?

What about the quality and what that shit offers to the customer?

What the fuck i am going to get out of this "hurr durr i feel sad" game?

Its not a fucking movie, is not a fucking game and its sure as fuck aint worth 9 US dollars.

I am a researcher in my third world country and let me tell you, you can sink 2 fucking years of your life and your money to get a research started and if they dont like the final product, you aint going to get shit in the end.

This guy dosent deserve shit, i watched this shitty ass game in a youtube channel and holy fuck is boring, i left with nothing.
>>
>>332442629
The problem is that shitty indies spend so much time on story during pre-production that their money is almost gone before they actually get into the meat of the game.
This leads to tons of shitty walking simulators that take 2 hours to complete.
The devs realise this and ham it up and leave endings open ended and conflicts unresolved. They claim that "its art! You wouldnt understand. Go back to COD!" When contested by critics for the lack of gameplay.
There are good indie games out there with plenty of gameplay and bang for your buck( Like Stardew Valley)
This whining about how they arent getting their 29 bucks for 10.minute games is a sign of things to come. Soon these pretencious faggota will leave the scene and the market gets purified of shit.

I don't think there's enough room left in this thread to explain the wrong in your view on this. Jesus. He worked on something, sure, but it has no value and he's certainly not owed anything for it, least of all sympathy and money. He chose poorly and continues to do so in the name of monetary gain and recognition for being only one in billions of people who have lost someone they love to cancer (myself included). He made a poor attempt at a video game from the experience and expects everyone to pay him for the privilege of listening to his totally unique snowflake message about faith and loss. The words "grow up" somehow don't even begin to cover it with this guy.

It's cancer dude, first world countries have fucked up with our processed food and pollution and electronics and shit before anyone knew that cancer was a thing. Not that I'm condemning it, it's just too late to do much about it at this point.

No, worse, he hired someone to do it for him because he's that much a vain egotist. It's just fucking pathetic.

No donations to cancer research or charities. No spreading awareness for the disease. Nothing but trying to put money in his pocket and feed his vanity with attention and sympathy.

Cancer is just losing a genetic gamble. It's a mutation that can happen at any time and in any part of the body where cells are dividing (all parts). However you're more likely to get it in particular parts of the body where cells are dividing more often (testicles, breasts) or are more susceptible to damage (lungs, skin), and your DNA gets shittier as you get older because it's mutating all the time.

Maybe he feels like his tribute to his son was a failure. He watched his child die and was unable to do anything about it then he poured his heart into this game that no one cared about so perhaps he's feeling like that's a rejection of his son, something else he created that died without many people caring.

He and his wife were working on the game and collecting Kickstarter money for it before the kid died. Instead of spending time with their child, who was in pain and dying, they were using that time to create this walking simulator to profit off his inevitable death.

>>332447794

Because that would take effort; you have to make sure games are balanced and shit. It's much easier to load up unity or whatever and make a walking simulator.

Plus, walking simulators are what's fresh and cool. This way he gets cred with the hipster douchebag crowd.
>>
>>332447802
Maybe it has to do with them starting up development of the game before the kid was even dead, and then showcasing it at PAX before the kid was dead, and then selling it after the kid was dead, and then bitching about profits after selling it after the kid is dead.

I dunno anon, you tell me.

Would be, if those two things weren't largely subjective. You can't really quantify being "put together" or "thoughtful" in the same way you can objective quality or tactfulness.

Having played the game myself, I personally think it's ugly, boring, garbage.

Movies are only worth about ten cents a person. I dont understand why people cant understand this. Movie tickets cost so much because of middle men and exclusivity through limiting access to the content. Even then though the value of the movie rapidly drops after the first week or so as rips and cams come out. There is a reason movies stores went out of business and DVD's are sold a buck a pop now at walmart.

Movies are inherently worthless as entertainment in this day and age. Get over yourselves and sell them for what they are really worth to today's consumer or stop bitching.

I don't think it's a good idea, honestly. While your kid getting cancer is undoubtedly tragic, cancer is pretty common as far as tragedies go, and most people have had to deal with cancer affecting family/friends/themselves at one point or another. To be marketable your tragedy needs to have farther reaching implications.

I watched this documentary called Dear Zachary recently, and I wont spoil it for people who haven't seen it, but it was insanely tragic, to the point where you're a little shell shocked at the end, but the documentary was successful because it detailed an extremely bizarre legal situation that culminated in pure horror, and served as a powerful examination and criticism of the absolutely fucked Canadian justice system. Nobody wants to see/play depressing shit, but if there's a point to it in the end then people will be drawn towards it.

This guy is trying to sell his sad but common situation but it just isn't marketable because it's tragedy for the sake of tragedy, and I think it's a little disturbing how much he's trying to force it.

Genuinely nice guy gets dumped by his fiance and winds up dating a manipulative cunt who's over 10 years older than him. Eventually he starts to realize how shit she is, dumps her and puts her on a plan back home. She comes all the way back to his place from hundreds of miles away and murders him. She's able to manipulate the shitty Canadian legal system, get out on bail that never got paid, and walk the streets free of repercussion.
Eventually it's revealed that she's actually pregnant with the man's son, and is given full rights to raise him despite murdering his father. The father's parents do everything they can to give the kid a fulfilling life through 1-hour visits, but the woman still has the judicial system in her favor and they're unable to take the child from someone who is clearly mentally unstable and guilty of murder.
I'd recommend just watching it since there's more to it that even I don't want to spoil it.
