What do you think about this?

Before I begin, this topic is seriously edgy and may upset some people based on the content.
Steam Greenlight is a service on Steam where game developers can showcase their games and the community votes for them to be on the store. This game popped up a few days ago before being taken down. I don't want to summarise it in my own words but this video seems fairly appropriate and self-explanatory. Pretty crude and offensive language is used, tread lightly especially if you are easily offended:

Originally this was only going to be a part of the other game, but I decided to release it on Greenlight to see people's reactions. The reason behind this particular game is because of how tired I am of people being overly sensitive and how easily offended people are by every little thing, especially with LGBT issues. I have worked in the game industry since 2007, so I know that's how the game industry pretty much is. I didn't make this game to attack LGBT people personally, but I made this game just to piss off those people that are way too sensitive, which includes straight people. These people that think if you are even remotely homophobic, you are "hateful" and a "bigot", and do everything they can to destroy you in every vicious way possible.. So I decided to go down a path that most developers are afraid to go down: to piss these people off by making the most overly offensive game possible to these idiots to prove a point.
As for an apology. Ain't gonna happen. To everyone that got overly offended. Good, thats what we were going for. Just wait for our next game we are working on, its gonna be way more offensive as this one.
This is disgusting.
