“The industrial complex for video games and TV programs for children” could have “Pooped his own ass again and made 2020 the Year of the Actual Bitch”, but the last 12 months of pandemic frustration have still inspired internet poet @denim to “Indie gaming scene” with his own creation.
Billed as “The next great gaming classic”, for “real and brave gamers” only, drill’s Patreon announcement describes the current (and maybe forever) self-titled game as “a full-fledged 2D action / adventure game that will be pretty good in my opinion.” dril notes that “the coronavirus pandemic has fucked us all,” meaning for his purposes he has been “locked in and / or out of work” long enough to make a game about “a silent protagonist’s quest. who bump into the gift of immortality in a dangerous future where Top Influencers and corrupt Hollywood boys maintain a cruel grip on society. ”
A short video of the game in action shows off its main character, a cop in sunglasses, who jumps around to avoid enemies. dril notes that he “did all the artwork and programming” on his own and would be interested in contracting some extra help if he can collect ‘enough’ DOUGH ‘here.’ We’ve been promised more “lurid details about the game’s content” as work continues on it, but for now, we can look to Dril’s previous video game tweets to better understand the author’s view of the medium.
