- the game is still a work-in-progress

- game description:

a fast-paced, action-packed, first-of-a-kind, socially-aware, excessively-hyphenated, puzzle-shooter! Wreak havok [sic] as a crazed gun-block on the streets of New Block City as it's [sic] citizens scramble to put an end to your crusade. Watch the media turn against you while simultaneously revelling [sic] in your destructive rampage. Unlock additional game modes that change the very nature of the game while perhaps making you question your preconceived notions of what it means to be a block person in New Block City (If you've had notions about that in the past, but probably not)! #BlockLivesMatter is not just a game, it's a movement. And a hashtag. Join the discussion #BlockLivesMatter.

- the game includes:

nnovative social media features that blend the line between player and spectator.” It also boasts that “[c]ultural sensitivity settings allow the player to customize the game to their own comfort levels.”

- you can choose whether to play as a black cube (the cube rolls) or a blue cube (cannon-like gun), each with a different attack that developers Abandon Ship explain as intended to represent how “inequality is a major theme in the Black Lives Matter movement.”

Oh my God.



That looks like pure, unrestrained shit.

Edit; also, why is everything in italics, including my user name on this page?!



#facepalm



That actually looks really fun



Around the Network

Genius, not kidding.

Also, read those youtube comments, lol.

Naming is on fleek.



The gameplay itself actually looks pretty good, but it's a weird game...



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Actually looks pretty fun



This game triggered neogaf so hard they actually completely deleted the thread.



Wait so this is technically a game where you control the shooter of a mass-shooting?

 

At least it's brilliant marketing to use that name.
