The developer also recommended that people don’t buy the game for the time being, calling the available versions “not up to the standards” of what he believes players expect from Conradical Games. Grindheim said that Conradical Games are “currently studying the appropriate legal actions, and will do all that is necessary to resolve this situation and protect the game”. Grindheim says he’s trying to reclaim the publishing rights to The Outbound Ghost, and promised “an additional reward” for Kickstarter backers if he did. “They refuse to hand back control of the relevant pages and are profiting from the situation.” On the flip side of that, Digerati alleges that Grindheim “unlawfully tampered” with The Outbound Ghost’s Steam page and tried to interfere with pages for the game’s console versions. “The past few weeks have been incredibly stressful due to many factors, but the main reason is that my relationship with the game's publisher has been dissolved,” Grindheim said in his video. Digerati later shared their own video response on Twitter, with owner Sarah Alfieri saying Digerati have been “blindsided” by Grindheim’s statement. Grindheim posted a video to YouTube and Twitter that alleged the publisher’s recent business practices towards the game haven’t been “ethically correct”. Paper Mario-style indie RPG The Outbound Ghost has been delisted from Steam by Valve, following lead developer Conrad Grindheim issuing a statement that claimed his relationship with publisher Digerati had 'dissolved'.
