As a teen, there was a brief period where I thought that 5 Gum actually gave you full body hallucinations.

What about the rest of y'all? Any ads capture your imagination only to disappoint you? I mean more than usual.

    Tbf, back in 2012, the idea of promising to make a video game and collecting money for it and then just ... not doing it was almost completely unheard of.

      not doing it

      They're doing something but that something is deliberately not delivering a completed product because edging the bazingas keeps them hoping and paying "pledges" for overpriced spaceship jpegs.

        Yup, I find it most satisfying to refer to what they're doing as just "not making the game they said they'd make." The hope is that someone will get baited into saying "what do you mean they didn't make the game, I've played it" and I can be like "then why isn't it released more than 10 years later?" :comfy-cool:
