Five Nights at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon has announced he is retiring, just days after a controversy erupted over his past donations to Republican candidates, including Donald Trump.
Cawthon confirmed his decision in a statement shared to ScottGames.com, accompanied by Five Nights at Freddy's artwork drawn by an unnamed eight-year-old fan.
There's no mention of the controversy in his statement, save for a reference to him receiving support from the LGBTQ community – a nod to the recent criticism faced by him for supporting Republican candidates with broadly anti-LGBTQ stances.
