The Day Before developer Fntastic has shut down one week after the game’s Early Access launch, the company announced, citing the game’s financial failure as reason for the closure.

This is actually hilarious. Never trusted them for a minute, but didn’t expect the rugpull to happen after just a few days. Wonder if Steam will refund everyone.

I think they will. Steam keeps the money for something like 30 days before taking its cut, taxes etc and pays the devs.

So normally they still have all the not yet refunded money, they won’t lose anything except time and work force (so money yeah ok…)

Why would it be Steam’s responsibility?

Not saying it is, but they have done so before for games with particularly bad launches.
