Recently released Steam game Dark Matter released for $15 has a totally abrupt ending, shown in the video above, that I find hilarious and that has made people who bought the game pretty frustrated because of how amazing it is.
The game can apparently be finished in 4.5 hours according to the NeoGAF thread and the developers of the game had this to say when commenting about its unfinished state:
Hello, just to answer all these questions.
No, the full story is indeed not complete yet because originally we wanted a longer game (12-16 hours) but couldnt finish it completely due to time and money (and Kickstarter failing). So, we choose to go with a 6-8 hour game instead to bring something out to the world and show everyone the world of Dark Matter. We are going to change the "to be continued" text to something else, to make sure this will be the end of the game as is in a clear msg to everyone...
Apparently it's an incomplete game in general:
It's just plain insulting that the developers keep insisting the game is complete. This is NOT a complete game, not in terms of story OR gameplay. Obviously the story is incomplete, that much is clear from the completely random and out of left field ending. However, I also hear that there are numerous gameplay elements that were introduced throughout the game's development and even playable during the TUTORIAL that are never used in the game. It actually introduces you to cool stuff and builds you up to use it later but that never comes!
