The game is a tactical, action racing game. Please pay attention to that first word. If this game is not approached with caution and with some wisdom it can be extremely evil and brutal. Demon Souls is the only other game in this generation that made me feel the way this game did. It’s a action racing game with beautifully drawn characters in a post-apocalyptic world where our nuclear, fossil fuel burning love has finally caused the earth to vomit on us, forcing us to race to gain access to the only thing that can save us.
As much as we love to read stories (and write them!) about indie success, as it means that the developer is living out the creative dream, there are many more examples of failed investments than there are of runaway successes.
Here's one story about a developer that only managed to sell 600 copies worldwide of a PSN game.
As we sit on the precipice of Grand Theft Auto V’s midnight release, with millions of sales sure to accompany it, Skander Djerbi of I-Friqiya has some sad news about Fuel Overdose, which was released in December 2012 in Europe and March 2013 in North America. - PSLS
Wow, I never would have thought this was possible. Hopefully they get it up on other platforms to increase sales.
How could a game that critics said "isn’t satisfying in the least" end up also not being interesting enough for people to buy? It's like the game isn't satisfying or something :O
(Also the price should be lower.)
Skander Djerbi from the Fuel Overdose team has announced that Fuel Overdose will be 1.99€ instead of 11.99€. This limited time offer will last until September 18th and is only for the PlayStation®Store.
