Okay, played it! Good work - particularly the soundscape helps to create the world. Just a note - Blood in the Machine is a book about the luddites. People today think they were anti technology, but it's actually a successful labor movement that was later smeared to make them look scared of technology. I don't personally think anti-technology is what we want - we want to control the use of technology, not give up on it just because it's used to maximize profit under our current society. Games can help us imagine that future.
For the end ressources (where links are a bit broken, sorry), I tried to privilege action you can actually apply. Some of them are really radically anti-tech and some other aren't that much (but focus on the idea that "knowledge is power"). Example is Seven Grams, an augmented reality app that tells you about Congo minings of rare metals for phones, directly from your own phone. (We're creatures of paradox and that's what's beautiful about us.)
Also, Luddite reference is actually about the Luddite Club which is a different movement haha.

Énorme poulet bravo à vous j'ai adoré le concept ❤
Very atmospheric, and a wonderful use of Decker's capabilities!
Oh! Thank you so much 💛 Decker is such a great & fun platform !
I'm very glad you're enjoying working with it. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you ever need assistance!
I loved the end loop, as a former corporate employee this game really hit close to home… Glad I chose to “leave”, both IRL and in here!
Thank you Nino <3
really good game congrats!
Aesthetic is great and the vacuity of the endless gameplay loop makes it profound. Even the title screen has meaning, diy 'till i die!
Merci !!!! ✊✊✊
THE SOUND DESIGN IS SO GOOD ! Great game !
Thanks! Sound design is the part where I'm usually the weakest in 👉👈 means a lot.
I have not played the game yet, but this is the best title for a game.
