War Games meets The Matrix

As the sole but mortally wounded survivor on a scouting mission you have been placed in a virtual simulation. Your goal is to piece your own memories together before you die into viable strategies that can be used against the synthetics. Something doesn't seem right though...

Input : Mouse

My own thoughts on the game:

Normally I go for very mechanics focused games so doing one that tries to tell a story and even one where the game is essentially lying to you was a bit of a challenge. I had a lot of fun coming up with the text for the game and also putting in all the glitches that appears as you play. Playtesting revealed that it needed to be clearer what was actually going on so I ended up relying more on the info box than I initially had planned. I also think there should have been a lot more glitches towards the end of the game!
