    What are the chances the other half of the dev team had all the technical know how and prison just became a really convenient cover for a bait and switch of an EAG?

      I think that it’s more likely that the other half of the dev team probably knew about the charges, saw this sentence likely coming and didn’t want to sink more time into the project. Which, I mean, I can understand if it’s a two person company. If you’re doing a company like this, you’re betting that the product is going to be successful, and “maybe half the company will vanish” is kind of a huge risk factor.

        from the articles it’s made pretty clear that the other dev just wasn’t up to it after multiple complications from a botched surgery.
