Yep. IIRC, they also released the game’s photo mode on exactly the same day the devs came forward about this, hoping it would overtake search results and hide what happened from the public.

Isn’t this the game where a scumbag bought the publishing company (possibly illegally using their own money), and then ousted the developers?

Edit; Yep.
