I expect to see many videos exploring the failures of this project in the future, maybe a few lawsuits. It would be a miracle if a good complete game worth this investment was created.

Eh, I think CIG has enough true believers buying JPEGs for this to continue pretty much until the whales die of old age or just run out of money to send him. I wouldn't be shocked if we're still talking about this in another decade, except this time it's $1.2 billion in funding.

After a couple trillions in funding maybe we will see a true 1 to 1 to real life physics engine lol

After that much funding it would have been cheaper to build a real space program.

Yes but would a real space program have you fall through the floor of your toilet and spin off out into space? I don't think so.

Give me an extra trillion and I can make it happen for you.

| you fall through the floor of your toilet and spin off out into space

$40 worth of the right mushroom variety can get you the same effect.

How many mushrooms can I get in exchange for these stupid spaceship jpegs?
