this will end well for all people involved
Neogaf is triggered already
It looks pretty damn fun.
ahh thats tacky to use for a name of your game i mean i know its supposed to be tongue in cheek and everything but why not mock something worth mocking?

[QUOTE=wauterboi;49471661]I thought it was going to be social commentary.[/QUOTE] it might be total satire and the guy who made it could been a black dude who lost some relative to the police killing them... but if its this topical and doesnt have any obvious sarcasm you kinda lost your direction
god damn that remix of In The Hall of the Mountain King.
Looks fun.
The game doesn't really look like it has much depth. Just a basic wave-based shooter. They probably took on the name to garner attention because this game wouldn't get it otherwise.
[QUOTE=SpyWolf;49471721]god damn that remix of In The Hall of the Mountain King.[/QUOTE] I guess the creator of the game made it. I can't find the song anywhere.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;49471661]I thought it was going to be social commentary.[/QUOTE] I mean the descriptions they've got going certainly make it sound as such with a satirical tone.

rip tumblr
[QUOTE=Mr. Zombie;49471745]The game doesn't really look like it has much depth. Just a basic wave-based shooter. They probably took on the name to garner attention because this game wouldn't get it otherwise.[/QUOTE] Looks like you have to flip your block into the right direction in order to aim, which might be pretty interesting to play with for a few minutes. I could see it being successful as a $1-3 mobile game or something.
It's decently fun and it's free. If the devs add co-op and flesh it out a bit more i'd certainly throw a couple bucks at it. Plus whenever tumblr and the media gets a hold of "mass murder white power racism simulator 2016" it's just going to lead to more people buying it. People have something to stay mad at and the devs just rake in the money. Everybody wins.
this looks like it might be the new flappy bird
The music in this trailer is rather foreshadowing of the incoming shitstorm. [editline]7th January 2016[/editline] Holy shit this game is actually hard

Is Al Sharpton a playable character? I rather talk out my problems than use pointless violence.
I think it looks pretty cool, use of the news thing as a hud is a neat concept.
yea this is definitely satire (from the greenlight page) [video=youtube;c-pSeT8aQNQ]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-pSeT8aQNQ[/video]

Sure those type of people get mad a lot, but that's because there's so many things that bother them. I don't think that would exactly be a good thing for them. I gotta admit, though, this game does look kinda fun and neat, especially with the visuals.
Pretty simple looking game, but that name and the colors used are going to do all the marketing needed for it. Genius

the blocks are a drain on a civilized society and the only language they understand is violence
[QUOTE=Daniel Smith;49471596]Neogaf is triggered already[/QUOTE] The threads already been taken down, it went exactly as you'd expect/ [QUOTE]It's not just the title. The game is about going on a shooting spree.

"The type of people who will call this funny and say stuff like "you guys need to relax its just a joke" (which will eventually happen in this thread) are the same people who say that white privilege doesn't exist." lmao let me hop in my ferrarri outta here
[QUOTE=Scot;49473056]BLM is absolutely worth mocking[/QUOTE] uh no? BLM has a point about black deaths in custody amongst other things the media+police try to sweep under the rug not every black person who gets shot from the police is innocent, yes, but most seem to have just magically gotten a gun and been shot with it, no suspicion at all BLM has radicals just like every organisation but to call it an organisation that deserves to be mocked is fucking stupid
they're... just blocks
