This must be the best/evil/addicting video game that has been made to delete files ever! Zach Gage created this game, Lose/Lose, where you can only lose. And just to think I just couldn’t go around deleting random files off my own PC, but to have a game created specifically to do this is just something out-of-this-world! However there is a BIG catch to deleting files in this game, the files quickly revives and comes back to destroy you for your deleting deeds. Spooky, eh?
Lose/Lose is a video-game with real life consequences. Each alien in the game is created based on a random file on the players computer. If the player kills the alien, the file it is based on is deleted. If the players ship is destroyed, the application itself is deleted.
Although touching aliens will cause the player to lose the game, and killing aliens awards points, the aliens will never actually fire at the player. This calls into question the player’s mission, which is never explicitly stated, only hinted at through classic game mechanics. Is the player supposed to be an aggressor? Or merely an observer, traversing through a dangerous land?Why do we assume that because we are given a weapon an awarded for using it, that doing so is right?
