I'm really tempted to believe this claim from a 'disgruntled ex-employee.' There has been rumours for years that this kickstarter has been fudged and each time an accusation is made, the creator puts out an update with an 'apology' that usually includes some concept art or something etc.
Just to show I supported this project:
I sank $60 dollars into this when it was funded over
FOUR years ago now. Since then the team has been through major revisions, they've told us all about these other projects staff are committed too and asked us to check them out etc. 145 updates later and we are nowhere near any kind of deliverable target or product. I've just accepted that I lost my money and no game will ever come out.
Something has happened here and it really needs to be investigated. Especially when the kick starter creator is making comments like this in his updates:
"I'm sorry this update is a little rough, I've been working around the clock but I really had to get this update out. Feel free to comment about the game, leave feedback and I'll try and get back to everyone as much as I can. And I'll just ask one more time, please, don't beat me up this update. I'm almost at my breaking point."

I legitimately believe this project is dead and gone. There's no point in denying it further.
EDIT:
Jesus christ, have you seen this comment? I guess they just want to piss everyone off. I don't want to go to old topics that have been and gone, I just think it's pretty bad to make a comment like that in regards to a situation they are no part of.
