This is a game to be enjoyed by everyone, and the last thing I wanted to do was create division within the fanbase.” “I let the backers down, I let our amazing Discord moderating team down by putting them into an impossible situation, and I let our fans down. “Instead of leading the team with competency, I let conflicting messages, posts and statements appear on our communication channels,” Tibor writes. Instead of directly addressing this, Tibor argues “the devs did nothing wrong” and promises to “promote the game by letting the team do what they do best-animate awesome videos and trailers.” However, throughout the apology, Tibor does not address the core issue behind the Subverse controversy: The studio provided an exclusive gameplay preview to Arch, a far-right YouTuber known for racist and fascist political beliefs.

In the post, Tibor explains his role as Studio FOW’s software and financial lead and how he is “just a regular old software guy who sailed into some very uncharted waters.” He also takes “full personal responsibility” for “the incompetency” from “multiple mistakes with communication,” he writes in the post.

On Tuesday, Studio FOW CTO Tibor published a post on the Subverse Kickstarter entitled “Public Apology,” which was also emailed to the game’s 58,730 backers.
But after the studio published another public statement on Kickstarter, backers across the political spectrum threatened to pull their support from Subverse. Initial backlash was confined to the Subverse fandom. Studio FOW’s upcoming adult game Subverse was embroiled in controversy last weekend after the studio partnered with a far-right YouTuber for an exclusive gameplay preview.
