About Death by Game Show
Death by Game Show is a strategy game about pop culture, chaotic decisions and hidden parodies. You guide U.H.Wutt, a lead-footed tub of goo sentenced to rehabilitation under droid tyranny and human ignorance. The sentence’s fine print describes it as “kidnap-come-illegal-trial-leading-to-banishment-and-death-sentence.” You help Wutt fight the tyranny, free humanity’s minds and seek freedom for all.
Survive the show
Your survival and success depend on how resourceful and reactive you are, rather than on power. You spawn droids while collecting coins, placing buildings, spinning for loot and dodging attacks, making decisions as the action unfolds.
Story and satire
The story unfolds through short social exchanges, battlecries and hidden messages. Its fictional characters appear in a fictional show set in a fictional universe, with satire about modern life conveyed through meanings, metaphors and parodies.
Customization
You can change the game’s text, paint the droids and build your own levels. Custom levels can be shared through the workshop.
