Apparently someone in China made an (unverified) blog post that Sweet Baby Inc demanded that the developers of a game pay them $7M for consulting. That's the whole story.

According to a reddit comment, apparently. The game's subreddit got so many posts about it the mods made an announcement banning discussion of it.
