Don\u2019t you sometimes get enough of that?<\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

PLAY<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0::\u00a0<\/strong>RATE<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n

No? Well I do<\/strong>. That\u2019s why I decided to show how much I detest watching news and hearing about the world sometimes. Ok, most<\/strong> of the time.<\/p>\n

The game was developed\u00a0for the MiniLD#40 competition<\/a>, themed: The Real World<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

What the hell is this about?<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Avoid the world is about defending yourself against media information (or misinformation). You fight with your only weapon while watching TV: your\u00a0remote control<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Your goal is to push away all the words that the TV screen vomits<\/strong> upon you. If they reach you, your brain damage<\/strong> will increment, and when 100%,\u00a0you lose<\/strong>. Note that you can\u2019t win<\/strong> against the TV, you will always lose at the end.<\/p>\n

Can I get Brain Damage playing this?<\/h2>\n

Good question. Yes you do<\/strong>, so please play carefully.<\/p>\n

Where are the words coming from anyway?<\/h2>\n

The words are automatically read online using advanced alien technology, found in a cave by honorable scientist Giorgio A. Tsoukalos<\/a>. In the modern world, this is know as RSS<\/a>, a format which most newspapers have.\n<\/a><\/p>\n

Did you find any trouble while doing this?<\/h2>\n

I\u2019m glad you asked. Well probably you can\u2019t imagine, but this was rather hard to make. Read the full post-mortem in my blog, I dare you! I DOUBLE DARE YOU!!<\/a><\/p>\n
