Reasons for Shutdown

Inappropriate Sexual Relationship

Williams had an inappropriate relationship with an employee.

Michael Williams started hitting on an employee, referred to as Ronnie.
Ronnie wondered if she might be able to take advantage of the situation, so she started to examine him from her desk and try to attract him.
The co-founder invited Ronnie out alone after an office party.
The employee took advantage of it, and wanted to be his favourite, so she could stay in the company the longest and move up.
WIlliams even told her he loved her, but not in a healthy way — in a controlling, manipulative kind of way.
Williams was allegedly dating three employees at a time.

Funds Mismanagement

Williams kept splurging money.

Williams was facing internal accusations of financial mismanagement.
After squeezing the same investors for years, and though Oomba had zero revenue, it seemed the company raised about $35 million from Chicago firm ExWorks Capital and blew through all of it in about a year.
There was a seven-figure splurge on a Las Vegas extravaganza featuring Big Bang Theory star Wil Wheaton that was so over budget the company didn’t fully pay the venue, according to a former member of management.
There were chic offices, where Williams fell hundreds of thousands of dollars behind in rent.
Paychecks came late, if at all. Invoices went unpaid.

Sex Solicitation

Williams offered to pay money for explicit photos.

From the moment Williams offered to pay her money for the employee's explicit photos and videos, she basically became his sugar baby.
Apart from that, there were a whole lot of sex workers.

Poor Leadership

Williams had very poor leadership.

Amanda Chicago Lewis from The Verge reviewed thousands of pages of documents and spoke with over 30 sources about Williams and Oomba, including investors, employees, and business partners.
Most described him as narcissistic, a fast-talking salesman with a talent for separating people from their savings.
Williams apparently didn’t like rules, couldn’t focus, and seemed unable to accept that he might ever be wrong.
He could be volatile, swearing over text message (“if you don’t return my call by 5 PM you are fucking fired you fucking douche”) and chastising employees over the office PA system (“Come to my office now you dumb motherfucker”).

Breach of Contract

WIliams never followed through on the project.

Williams raised over $250,000 on Kickstarter and never followed through on the project for which the money was meant.
A $100,000 loan agreement was scanned and emailed without signatures, giving Williams cover to deny the loan had happened at all.

Poor Technology

There were always glitches.

The company’s core product was never able to do what it said it was supposed to: work with any game.
There’s glitches and glitches and glitches, but he didn’t want it to work. He wanted it to stay almost done, to raise more money from investors.

Sexual Harassment

Co-founder asked an employee an appropriate question.

The co-founder had a puerile sense of humor, asking an employee who brought her cat into work, “Can I pet your pussy?” again and again.

Lies and Manipulation

Williams cheated everyone involved.

Williams cheated investors, he cheated employees, and he cheated vendors, and he felt zero guilt about that, I mean zero.

Securities Fraud

Promised stock options.

Many of Oomba’s engineers were college students whom Williams apparently sometimes paid in free food and the promise of stock options.
He pledged $400,000 in college sponsorships and only gave a quarter of it.
