Sadly they made some mistakes. Inspired by the sucess of Exo:Mankind Reborn (249% funded) the put another game on Kickstarter before the first one was fully fulfilled, which they believed would be a sucess and it seems they needed more money than the founding goal to be a sucess and probably quiet a bit more to make money for their company.
And they invest such a amount of money that the failure of said project would endanger their company.

And they did all this as a company that is practically unknown in the boardgaming market and on Kickstarter. Yes some people probably got their copies of Exo: Mankind Reborn before the launch of their new KS but it was not enough the create hype for the game and get them known as a company that makes good boardgames.
So all in all in my opinion this was a very risky move they made and sadly it backfired.
