Is this the fastest video game death of all time? Not even Lawbreakers died this fast.

I don't think this game even lasted long enough for word of mouth to have popularized it. I didn't hear about it until it was dead. I am wondering how many players Helldivers 2 had at 11 days (not a great example because it was an existing IP with existing fans). Could they have made it if the game had actually been good? I am not sure. Shutting down super fast got them more publicity than anything else they did.
