The new story he gave the game wasn't even based in Miami, and I'm pretty sure had no connection at all to Hotline Miami like the original version did.
As you can imagine this was as bad as it sounded.
Way back in December the game was cancelled due to the dev going through a massive break up or some ♥♥♥♥ that caused him to get so sad that he re opened the game in January as a mix of Persona (a Japanese jrpg and visual novel mix) mixed with Hotline Miami.
