What Happened To Neil deGrasse Tyson's Video Game?
🕑 Added 2022-04-08 15:57:24 +0000 UTCHey everybody, this video is a bit different for us: It's an investigative piece into what happened to 2017's Kickstarter project called Space Odyssey: The Video Game, presented and promoted by astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. What started as an ambitious pitch about an educational game travels through some extremely dark territory and resulted in thousands of Neil deGrasse Tyson/science fans feeling cheated. Warning: This video contains stories of sexual assault.
