As a part of the partnership, Gala supplied Gamedia funding, promotion, and publishing assist, however Gamedia quickly grew involved over Gala’s unfulfilled commitments. Gala expanded into “film and music, spending millions on fruitless celebrity partnerships, jets, and real estate” whereas failing in its “support, and revenue payments” to Gamedia. Following a number of failed makes an attempt to lift these considerations with Gala, Gamedia withdrew from additional funding into the sport. Gala responded with authorized motion, public defamation, and efforts to amass the Spider Tanks IP.
