Gamasutra: Following the news that Apple has removed indie developer Molleindustria's latest game from the App Store due to a violation of Apple's review guidelines, the game has now been released on the Android Market.
A game designed to highlight the "dark side" of the electronics industry is donating more than $6,000 to a former FoxConn employee. Tian Yu was 17 in 2010, when she worked at Apple's Chinese manufacturer FoxConn, under such abusive conditions she attempted suicide by jumping from a four-storey window.
Wasn't surprise about Apple pulling it from the app store. Foxconn manufacturer more than just Apple products. A lot of companies use Foxconn.
Nightmare Mode touches on the idea of games being radical, and what they can do to become more radical. Conclusions: Tale of Tales is the Iggy Pop and the Stooges of the gaming world, and that we need new blood making new kinds of games if we ever hope to have "radical" ones.
BH: "A few items from the past month that I wanted to bring to our readers’ attention:
First, Auntie Pixelante has created a game called Defend the Land, which is a satire of transphobic “women-born-women” policies at music festivals like MichFest. It was created in response to a self-identified feminist posting a list of names and other identifying information of trans women who attended MichFest despite of or in protest of the policy."
