On October 29th, a [https://youtu.be/6B_ylKcePfc YouTube video] was posted in which Francis got on camera and was interviewed about his game.<ref name=":1">https://kiwifarms.st/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/page-50#post-19691216</ref> The interview itself and the build shown was on the 19th. In the video, he stated a TDM mode was planned, but was not meant to replace the base FFA mode. He also stated interest in adding a "build mode" due to another Battlegrounds game adding it, a ''Pillar Chase 2'' inspired mode, and said his ultimate goal was for it to be an "everything game." The business model was to have new characters locked behind the paid game pass, which would be available for free on weekends and then forever once enough time had passed since their introduction. An official [sic] collaboration character from the game ''Pressure'' was also announced. Being the tranny chaser he is, Francis included wave dashing as a movement option in a bid to attract as many stinkditchers to his game as possible. | On October 29th, a [https://youtu.be/6B_ylKcePfc YouTube video] was posted in which Francis got on camera and was interviewed about his game.<ref name=":1">https://kiwifarms.st/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/page-50#post-19691216</ref> The interview itself and the build shown was on the 19th.

Somehow, Francis had amassed at least 4000 dollars for the project.<ref>https://kiwifarms.net/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/post-19533463</ref> It would later be revealed that all of it went to Doordash. | |||
According to dev testimonials, Francis' only real contribution to the project was his 2D art. The only other thing he did was write movesets, seethe at his [[Kiwifarms|'Farms]] thread, and add and remove characters from the roster, confusing and delaying the rest of the team.<ref name=":2">https://kiwifarms.net/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/post-21107729</ref> Much of his communications with the team consisted of them trying and failing to give him [[Advice]], as well as talking him out of suicide at least once. Francis would ignore all feedback unless heavily pressured by the team. The team would work in his absence whenever he was having a sperg meltdown (ie, all the time). There was common frustration about Francis underpaying or not paying the team at all.<ref name=":3">https://kiwifarms.net/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/post-21109176</ref> [[Zach]] states that he paid some of the devs out of pocket, and that only one person was ever paid by Francis.<ref>https://kiwifarms.net/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/post-21107434</ref><ref>https://kiwifarms.net/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/post-21109657</ref><ref name=":4">https://kiwifarms.net/threads/francis-joseph-benditt-iv-fallenchungus-datsmojo-mojo-thatsmojo-agony-arena-dunkbunko-datsactuallymojo-noircaveat.196329/post-19735633</ref> | According to dev testimonials, Francis' only real contribution to the project was his 2D art.
