Drama! Damn this game looks right up my alley. Says it's a 2 person team, I wonder if development will continue.

Average early access dev
The creator of Fortune’s Run, who goes by Dizzie on Steam, announced Tuesday night that her past had caught up with her. “I’ve been sentenced to prison for the next 3 years,” she wrote on the game’s Steam page. “It’s a long story, but I’ve lived a very different life before I was a game developer, and I wasn’t living very well. My case is about 5 years old now, I have been going through the legal process the whole time I’ve been working on this. I have finally been found guilty and sentenced, and I’m going away next month.”
“It’s a shame, but it’s the consequences of my actions,” the developer continued. “I was a very violent person and I hurt a lot of people in my life. Unfortunately, the sentence isn’t going to help with that at all, but I guess we all know that. So the game isn’t TOTALLY dead, but unfortunately due to even further bad things happening, it’s unclear what will happen.”
:(
Anyone know what she did?
Scamming people into investing in an early access game with no intent of finishing it.
ahem...
Just to be clear, I'm joking
They seem to allude to a violent crime, as they said they "were a different more violent person in the past."
I only clicked the article to find that out and it wasn't included. Annoying.
This has been an interesting game with an interesting story.
