I’ve written about Glorious Leader! before now. No, I don’t mean our Glorious Leader (for those of you who don’t tune into the shows (why not?) it’s a term we jokingly apply to the station owner), rather a sidescroller game featuring North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Yes, really.

The game was in development by Moneyhorse Games, and they had a Kickstarter going to fund it. I say ‘had’ because… well, it’s been cancelled after a hack meant someone gained access to the files related to the game and “destroyed data pertaining to Glorious Leader! and other projects we had in development” according to Moneyhorse. They have said though that no user information was compromised.

“As many of you know, over the holidays we were victims of a hack inspired by the attack on Sony,” a statement posted to the Kickstarter page read. “The hackers destroyed data pertaining to Glorious Leader! and other projects we had in development and locked us out of our own computers and website… It is now evident that our funding goals will not be met, so we are cancelling our Kickstarter campaign.”

Moneyhorse also said that it wasn’t the first time they’d received threats because of the game and so were reevaluating their commitment to it. They thanked all the fans and backers for their commitment, saying they were sorry to have let them down.

At close Glorious Leader! had attracted $16,816 of its $55,000 Kickstarter goal.
