There is no fucking game. He doesn't know how to make a proper game, he never did, and he doesn't have a development team behind him.
He has simultaneously been stating that the game has not even started development ("Sony needed something to show NOW, he had absolutely nothing ready so he took random assets and sent those for the teaser") and that it has been in development for years with external funding. He keeps saying he's just an indie developer, but he also says he's working with 7 other studios.
He's a clueless idiot who is just faking it till he makes it. The only thing he made, however, is attract FAR more attention than he can manage, and now he doesn't know what to do, so he's buying himself time while trying to defuse the situation (pretty unsuccessfully, I might add). "Oh, you'll see the game on the 22nd." "Oh, the app is delayed." "Oh, even when it launches the app will be empty, the game will come later".
The reason why everybody who tries to speak with him comes out more confused than before is that they expect to be talking to the head of a developer studio with a project in the pipeline, but he has so little of a clue of what he's doing and saying that he can't even come up with a straight story about his non-existent game that doesn't contradict itself multiple times over. Imagine calling an architect for an interview about their new bridge project, but picking up the phone is a baker who attempts to bullshit his way through the discussion by saying that his budget is 10 times what you would expect for a similar work, that he is being helped by 20 aides but can't produce the name of a single one of them, and that he outsourced the concrete-casting process to what turns out to be a car dealer.
The only unsolved mystery in all of this is how can Sony's vetting process to decide which indie games are admitted on their store have gotten even worse than in the PS4 era, despite the very loud alarm bell that must have rung in some higher-up's ears after Life of Black tiger and the Gilson B. Pontes games became a meme for being even shittier than your average Steam Greenlight nonsense.
my bad!
