"Behind the Scenes of Skull Island: Rise of Kong - Devs Reveal Struggles and Controversies"

TL;DR Summary
Developers at IguanaBee, the studio behind the poorly received game Skull Island: Rise of Kong, have accused publisher GameMill Entertainment of providing insufficient development time and funding. The anonymous staff members claim that the game had only a year of development, leading to technical issues and outdated gameplay. They also allege that GameMill often withheld necessary information, forcing the studio to improvise. The lack of resources and funding has hindered IguanaBee's ability to pursue original projects, leaving them trapped in a "love/hate relationship" with licensed games.
