About

Day One: Garry's Incident is a PC survival game developed and published by Wild Games Studio in Mascouche, Québec, Canada and released on 25 September 2013. The game received primarily negative reviews from critics for its unstable and unpolished gameplay, including TotalBiscuit, who published his review on YouTube; Wild Games Studio then had the video taken down using the site's automated copyright complaints system. In response, TotalBiscuit uploaded a response/follow-up video claiming that the copyright complaint was part of a deliberate attempt to censor online criticisms. After receiving negative attention for their copyright complaint, the game's developers apologized and withdrew the complaint. The developers were also accused of astroturfing online reviews on Metacritic.
