Occupy Wall Street Now a Video Game

Lame-0-rang. A bunch of dope-smoking hippies came up with a poorly coded video game based on Occupy Wall Street. How hard would it be to win a game where the players smash a few windows, refuse to bathe and sit in tents? The gameplay is actually even worse than that.

From RT here by way of Twitchy:

Programmers in Oakland, California have unveiled a video games inspired by the Occupy Wall Street movement.

The gameplay appears quite simple, but without two players cooperating together, a goal is impossible to accomplish. Maneuvering two sets of controls, gamers move characters through a series of switches one at a time to ascend a tower all the way to the top. When the clock ticks down, players then have to parachute down and, as Wired explains, “occupies” a switch and, thus, saves their score.

“Someone who’s maybe not super good at video games might only get to an early switch, but they’ll still stay behind and hold that switch and help all future players to still be contributing something that’s significant.”

So are they selling the game or giving it away for free? The jobless Occupiers, who are mostly vacationing back in their parents’ basements, might have to ask Mom and Dad for the iTunes cash to download it onto their iPads.
