Title: Let me tell you about a game [he] made...
Post by: crovv on August 29, 2013, 07:05:49 AM
...with the sole intention of watching it die.

Impetus (http://dominikjohann.tumblr.com/post/59611971605).

A game where the game only lasts ten seconds, and the only mechanic is clicking a button. After ten seconds are up, a girl dies and the story is over. The only way you can let her live is by clicking that button. The ten seconds reset, and the girl lives for another ten seconds.

At first, it was just the three developers clicking the button, but it grew into a firestorm that led to its own demise.

If you're interested in the game, or the story about the game, click the link above, or here (http://dominikjohann.tumblr.com/post/59611971605).

Basically, it's a story that interested me and I loved the concept.

Holy shit. What would have happened if it didn't crash? What a legend of a game it would have been if the server wasn't stopped. That would have been insane.  Such a sad story though, she died because of a server shutdown.  Wow. I'm literally at a loss for words, other than what a legend.

Pretty cool, and the server host was a giant pile of assholes apparently.
