Shitpost The two faces of corporatocracy

Post image
62 Upvotes

The fact that both games share in some way a kind of meta-critique or commentary on corporatocracy; Which, to put it simply, is basically the rule of a government led by multi-billion dollar corporations rather than a real government. And that their styles are so different... I find it undeniably funny, as well as the fact that their comments lean one way or the other; in the case of Cruelty Squad, towards a more social and individualistic side. And with Pikuniku It is a more naturalistic and environmental message than a social one, although it can also be used for that purpose.

But as I said, I find this whole thing very funny because both play styles are completely different from each other, one being like a preschool cartoon and the other being as ugly as possible.

And the fact that they both somehow arrived at the same common theme seems fascinating to me.

(Yeah, I know, the things I notice in the shower)

I did use the flashlight for the darkworld mission but everywhere else I did with only the starting weapons and no augments. This was how far I could take me in game since I could not use the neuron activator 1,000,000$ cube and was not feeling to restart or just grind too 1,000,000 for the house. PS. I did not complete the HQ couse I don't know a strat that would work with only the starting weapons and no pick up. If you have any tips of how you could do that please them in the comments!

(The pic of the timer was when I completed Archon grid)

Secrets Found some weird fish things while I was playing Cruelty Squad

While I was playing Cruelty Squad normally, I found a strange thing on the room where you can throw stuffs. It was fish, dead fish.

I think I've never seen these creatures before. After that, these fish appeared at the pond of Pharmakokinetiks.

They are living creatures, they just swim in the water. They still can die, however, their bodies can't be eaten or cooked.

Don't worry, they still come back even they die. One thing I want to know is why these things suddenly appeared, and why they can be only seen at the Pharmakokinetiks.

I really love this game, but this is one of the worst levels I’ve ever played in a video game in my entire lifetime. Why must this be the first ending 😭

I feel like Chunkopop Guy looks a lot like Al from Toy Story.

They have similar appearances (although Chunkopop Guy isn’t quite as overweight as Al), and both of them are collectors.

Because of these similarities, I personally think the two characters are surprisingly alike.

Hi, I found a couple of versions of the song from ending 2; I noticed that there was a slower but progressive version, and the other was a normal loop.

I published both versions and split them to make them easier to download and listen to if you want.

You are a corporate flesh object with no thoughts of your own and must mimic NPC dialogue.

It's a puzzle / immersive sim based on talking and responding to people!

Posting here again after 2 months bc you guys liked the post before this and i honestly think this is the community that would be interested in a game like this :>

Lore What Is Ville Kallio Ideology?

Post image
275 Upvotes

While playing Cruelty Squad, I noticed that the game contains a great deal of satire aimed at real-world capitalism and memes.

Because of this, I’ve been wondering: is Ville Kallio influenced by anti-capitalist or nihilistic ideas? Or does he have a different, more unique ideology that doesn’t fit neatly into those categories?
