The website claiming to represent Fntastic is asking for a "second chance."​

Remember The Day Before, the once-hyped game that had such a disastrous early access launch that the Singapore-based studio that developed it, Fntastic, announced its closure just days later? Well, Fntastic appears to be back, and they're asking for a second chance — and your money.

In yet another bizarre development to what was already a strange saga, the X/Twitter account for Fntastic resurfaced today, announcing a Kickstarter campaign and asking for "your help again to bring Fntastic back." The post links to a website which claims to lay out the details for Fntastic's next moves.

Once, you helped us create Fntastic through Kickstarter.
Today, we need your help again to bring Fntastic back!

Only investing if they merge with Blue Box

Anyone that falls fie this again only have themselves to blame, lol.

 

[coachmcguirk91]

Scammers are some of the shittiest people in existence. Really messed up that there are regions in the world where it's a legitimate profession

 

[winjer]

Takes a lot of nerve to try the same scam again.
The only question is how many idiots are out there that will fall for it again.

 

[justiceiro]

Can you blame then? They set a standard for the industry, as we have seen what Sony did to Concord.

In all seriousness, there is no jail in Singapore? You mess with investors money, you better run far away...

They'll part at least some people from their money. Hype is almost never rational

People who throw money in their direction again:

 

[mansoor1980]

Only investing if they merge with Blue Box

 

[Reaseru]

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
