Survival Ball: Making the Game, in 1716 Hours
- DonHopkins 7y agoI sure hope Halliburton doesn't sue them for infringing on their SurvivaBall trademark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3a3XBnMe5Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3a3XBnMe5Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joUVgVEZx7U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joUVgVEZx7U

- ymse 7y agoI recommend skipping the article and jump straight to the movie if you have the time: https://archive.org/details/The.Yes.Men.Fix.The.World.P2P.Edition.2010.Xvid https://archive.org/details/The.Yes.Men.Fix.The.World.P2P.Ed... It was released under a Creative Commons license on recommendation from the EFF, so that the U.S. House of Chambers could not stop it (yes, they tried!). The movie is a documentary of sorts, featuring two people who go to conferences posing as high-profile businesses, promoting oft-ridiculous products to make a point...the only problem is, people keep taking them seriously (even Halliburtons SurvivaBall). At one point they end up live on BBC news and inadvertently wipes $1B+ off a companys public stock value. It is hilarious, and well worth the watch.
- diziet 7y agoI like the way the anti-aliasing is done along with the art style.
- cableshaft 7y agoThis is a really interesting breakdown of how it developed over time and I love how the levels are so distinct. The treadmill level in particular looks really cool and creative. Here's to hoping it'll eventually come out on the Nintendo Switch, since that's the easiest place I can do couch co-op (I still bought a copy for PC as well).
