10 Times Crowdfunded Video Games Slapped You In The Face

10. Yogventures

Yogcast is the ridiculously popular YouTube channel with 7 million-plus subscribers. This would explain then, how a proposed open-world Minecraft-lite game based on their characters and concepts, doubled its $250,000 price tag in a brief crowdfunding campaign.

It was full-steam ahead then as the channel hired Winterkewl Games to take on the game's development. Although a rough Beta eventual came out, the title was otherwise delayed numerous times over a two year period. Not surprisingly, it was eventually axed as the cash ran out in 2014.

Plenty of angry backers naturally fired off in forums, and then things went really ugly in a sand-throwing competition between Winterkewl and Yogcast concerning over $150,000 of the game's budget being 'unaccounted' for.

Backers were eventually given access to a new Yogcast's backed game called TUG as a consultation - ironically, that had its own ugly crowdfunding tale. Not to mention, it was a sub-par title that is proposed to go free-to-play...if it ever releases.
