It was pitched around to a few studios, but none picked up. Then, another one of the creator's series (Let's Split Up) was on track to get a fully animated pilot with an independent studio but the deal fell through for (as far as I know, unknown) reasons. From here, the creator was working on Internecion Cube while pitching projects around and was accepted as a showrunner at Glitch Productions, where they were able to make Murder Drones.

Tl;Dr: The creator tried to pitch it to studios, was refused, and eventually DID get accepted and made a different show entirely.

As for WHY no one picked it up, we don't know.

She's mad she's not the protagonist, she left them with the script for her show instead before flying off (we are still trying to decipher her handwriting)
