Publisher kills a game over gen AI accusations, leading its developer to shut down while insisting it was "mistakenly accused": "Everything we built over the past 6 years, was canceled in just a few days"

Postal IP owner Running With Sicssors has cancelled a project called Postal: Bullet Paradise two days after it was announced due to negative fan feedback over the potential use of AI.

Earlier this week, developer Goonswarm Games announced Postal: Bullet Paradise – a Vampire Survivors-like FPS set in the Postal universe. However, the game was immediately slammed by fans, who pointed out the potential use of AI-generated art. Despite some pushback from the publisher's co-owner and other developers on Discord, Running With Scissors has cancelled the project following the negative feedback.
