solid sprite work tbh, shame it's wasted on this shit

[-] edge@hexbear.net 23 points 11 months ago

I was about to ask if it was a parody, because it actually looks like something I'd want to play. Shame that it's not.

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 31 points 11 months ago

Just play Broforce or Metal Slug instead

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 26 points 11 months ago

Been trying to find a pirated version because there's no way I'm paying $18 for this shit.

Oh my apologies, I didn’t realize

[-] Rojo27@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago

Gonna blame the next school shooting on this game.

Alex Jones is playing the irony card and people will give him money ironically. debord-tired

[-] GarfieldYaoi@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

It sucks man. People take the right's word as gospel, but they almost always get Jester's privilege when held to scrutiny.

It's a whole lot of

"create an account to safely access the most cancelled game ever" lmfao

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 11 months ago

tbf reich-wingers don't really care about video games or any other media, if they did they wouldn't be screeching about something as trivial and harmless as "FUCKING PRONOUNS" in their vidya all day long

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 11 months ago

as if :pronouns: doesn't exist xD

(view on hexbear)

didn't you know? pronouns were made up by profound feminist Jane Woke in 2020 to oppress the free speech of the common people 😭😭

Complains about technocrats tracking you with technology

Asks you to make an account to buy his game. DEFINITELY WON'T SELL YOUR DATA!

(((THEY)))

Alex has always been self aware, he's an entertainer first. His only real ideological stance is selling stuff to rubes

[-] President_Obama@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Fyi, im p sure triple parentheses are against the hexbear rules, no matter the context. Might want to rephrase it

But yeah it's a grift, you're right.

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago

I had no idea, I was just doing that to show what I think the gamemakers mean with the layout of that title.

The big "they" feels like it's trying to evoke anti-semitic feelings.

[-] Helmic@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

Oh, he's genuinely a right wing bigot that hates Jews and Muslims. He lies to create a narrative to get his audience on board with his politics and to scare them into giving him money.

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months ago

I would say that he is still self aware about it, he knows what he is, he knows the game. His whole schtick relies on his persona though and marinating that requires him to be self aware.

[-] DanComrd@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

Not the gay frogs! walter-shock

[-] Pili@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

I can't watch the trailer because of rare France W.

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

It's basically Jones shouting Infowars memes and screaming in a manly rage.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 11 points 11 months ago

Holy shit that is a pathetic cash grab.

When 1 billion owed to the deep state you have, bend over you will,

[-] christian@lemmy.ml 8 points 11 months ago

I was going to comment that this looks awesome but upon reading the other comments here, is this really not a joke? Like there's no way the people who made this actually take him seriously, right?

[-] LesbianLiberty@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago

The ridiculousness serves a couple functions, but yes they do actually take him seriously. It functions as effective advertising ("hey, check out this hilarious game, who actually believes this stuff??") which can spread it more easily to the kind of person who does believe this stuff.

It's outrageousness is also self selecting, because it's able to pretend it doesn't really believe this stuff to liberals. For people who believe even a little bit of this and can look past the funny stuff, it becomes a kind of self selecting thing, like you're able to self select what's really a joke and what's not. It's kinda like those scam email chains where it selects for people who would believe something like what it's saying, and everyone else who thinks it's ridiculous moves on

[-] Tachanka@hexbear.net 8 points 11 months ago

This might be kind of missing the point, but I hate whenever some rich asshole clearly hires underpaid workers to make something for him, everyone says "look! rich asshole made this!"

makes me think of questions from a worker who reads

[-] Pili@hexbear.net 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

There is a full playthrough on youtube.

The voice lines are so cringe.

[-] LesbianLiberty@hexbear.net 10 points 11 months ago

[-] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

It doesn't even have his passion or rage. Did he forget his suppliments voice recording day? alex-supplements

[-] Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

Well I know what I'm drunk watching tonight.

Uncool teacher attempting to lean into the joke vibescringe

[-] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago

If I were making this game, you'd start with a little pistol taking on small stakes conspiracies. You'd continually get bigger guns and more explosions as you start going down the rabbit hole. You'd go through the matrix, you'd fly a Star Fox ship into space for galactic war, until you finally unravel the simulation and your gun is puking geometric rainbows over 3/4th of the screen against some polygonal approximation of Satan.

I'm sure toxic masculinity gets in the way of it.
