Does anyone else remember a PC game called D/Generation, in which you have to evacuate hostages from a building overrun by increasingly sophisticated bioweapons? That there is an A generation.

Yet another game I’ve been meaning to play for ages. Seems it’s out on Steam in HD these days, and even on the Switch.

It’s picking up speed!

Bummer there doesn’t seem to be a good copy to be found. Here’s the best I could get (requires flash).

I thought I’d seen it here before, but I couldn’t find it in a search.

I loved it as a kid. It’s more puzzle game than action shooter, so there was a real sense of accomplishment moving up through the building. There are flashes of world-building revealed on computer terminals as you progress, revealing an increasingly sinister mega-corporate dystopianism. The first time I confronted the game boss, I got actual existential chills and had nightmares for days.

Great stuff.

Came to ensure someone said “I am not a number …” and left implicitly satisfied.

ETA and came back to say King John was not a good man:
And, oh! Father Christmas, if you love me at all,
Bring me a big, red, india-rubber ball!”
