The year is 2020, and a certain group of young German upstarts just released a game called Heimat Defender: Rebellion*.

*Heimat = Homeland

"What's so special about this game" you might ask. Well, I'm glad you asked young whippersnapper. You see the game is made by a German group called "Ein Prozent", or, translated to English, "One Percent". This group, classified as "extremist" by the German government (which doesn't really mean all that much coming from the krauts), is a network of right-wing German figures from various parties and movements, ranging from AfD to NPD and the Identitarian Movement.

What is the game about? Well, from German Wikipedia translated to English and with some errors fixed with Grammarly:

Heimat Defender takes place in a dystopia in the year 2084. The action takes place primarily in large cities full of Antifa zones. The whole of Europe is controlled by the so-called Globohomo Corp. controlled. Globohomo is referred to in the computer game as a "global homogenization corporation" run by a group of cyber-globalists. The company, run by shady technocrats, controls almost every resident of Europe as a mindless NPC ( non-player character).

In the game, real representatives of the new right and right-wing extremist political movements are presented as heroes and celebrated resistance fighters. These are, for example, Martin Sellner, head of the Identitarian Movement in Austria, the political activist Alex Malenki, the AfD politician Björn Höcke, the new-right activist Götz Kubitschek (also referred to as The Black Knight in the game ), the YouTuber and activist Outdoor Illner, the head of One Percent e. V. Philip Stein and the new right-wing journ*list Martin Lichtmesz. They are resisting in the metropolitan cities of the former Germany and trying to defeat the NPCs and the Globohomo Corp. The right-wingers have discovered an intermediate dimension and found a place of refuge there that they call the forest walk. When the resistance fighters discussed what to do next in the forest, they were attacked and surrounded by police. Shortly afterward, Kubitschek decides to hold off the police, allowing the rest of the group to escape using a portal.

As is typical of the genre, the player moves through different levels in a hopping and running manner. He takes control of one of the right-wing activists. The player must defeat various opponents and bosses using various special abilities.

The developers have openly said that they want to recruit kids with this video game, so they did very much play into the controversy, and there was a controversy, to say the least:

We had Vice reporting on it, where apparently, the developers told them that the game was downloaded over 20.000 times, which isn't all that bad for a no-name studio. Furthermore, apparently, a bunch of """""experts""""" have told Vice how this game is heckin' problematic and how it poses a risk to German society, which is why the German government put it on a list of media harmful to minors.

But that's not all, we also had a bunch of """""scholars"""" paid by various """""counter-extremist""""" networks writing about how heckin' harmful this game is. [1] [2] [3]

One thing they mentioned is how this game is a response to an anti-racist game called Leons Identität (Leon's Identity), a game released on Steam where you have to save your brother who joined a far-right group. The game is less than an hour long and most negative reviews say that's typical leftoid propaganda (as you might have guessed). The game looks like your typical, boring as frick, art slop and I can't imagine anyone enjoying it who's not a complete pretentious hipster. Apparently, though, some kids in German schools are forced to play this game, which makes me think that Germany should be reported to UNICEF for child abuse.

Naturally, some people didn't take too kindly to heckin' nazis being on Steam.

The only response to this Steam discussion, which was selected as the best response by the Steam global moderators (official Steam representatives) is the following:

If it offends you, click the ignore button and move on.

Don't ask us to mass report something.

Redditors had their usual reaction to this game, except that it was, surprisingly, milder than their usual unhinged screeching.

Eventually, of course, Valve did remove the game. Apparently, there was a problem with an age rating, and the studio is also located in Germany, which probably means that Valve must act in accordance with the German government.

And that was that... until February of this year, when a totally not soycucked blogger reported that a new game is being made by the same team, which is basically a remake of their previous work. A game called The Great Rebellion.

They even got Paul Joesph Watson (of all people) to do an ad for their game:

And so, here we are. The game is on Steam, and it's getting positive reviews, which will of course cause a lot of soycucks and s to seethe, which will, in turn, cause drama, and drama is good for this website. Therefore, this game's success is good for this website and that's why you should buy this game.

Development respond:

Reminder that Troy Baker etc still get plenty of work. It's people like this who are struggling:

_{This is an actual voice actor. Look at him- he deserves every bad thing that happens to him. Frick this guy.}

For the record, I like this game. It combines flying a biplane with running a microbrewery, allowing you to import your own bottle labels for beers, wines and spirits you then deliver all over the islands while avoiding air pirates. For twenty bucks it's great. The visuals are very pleasant and it has lovely music. The AI voice work sounds fine and is a clear indication that using it works very well on small titles like this.

Bonus thread about another indie game I like allegedly having AI art. OP gets big mad that this publicly posted thread on a public forum gets comments from members of the public (who don't agree with him)...

Reminder that this is all because a Brazilian chuddie made a steam group to highlight videogames involved with sweet baby inc

Article:

So, who had ‘A US government funded nonprofit enters the fray around Sweet Baby Inc.' on their bingo cards?

In response to the recent discourse surrounding the work of the aforementioned narrative consultation company, the ‘mental health in video games'-centric nonprofit organization Take This has called on both players and the industry at large to clearly and unequivocally denounce G*mergate.”

A 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in 2014, Take This describes itself as a “mental health organization providing comprehensive resources, support, and consultation tailored for the unique needs of the game development community.”

Far from a ‘minor entity' within the industry, a number of noted figures are counted among the company's governing board members and officers, including Bethesda Marketing VP Pete Hines, Ubisoft VP of Global Diversity & Inclusion Raashi Sikka, and PlayStation's Head of Global Portfolio and Acquisitions Christian Svensson.

The official logo of the Take This non-profit organizationThe official logo of the Take This non-profit organization

In terms of its ties to the United States government, per a public disclaimer on their various whitepapers, their work is funded as part of an official Department of Homeland Security research project known as ‘Disrupting Video Games-Based Radicalization Through Collaborative Cross-Sector Networks' (DHS # EMW-2022-GR-00036).

“This joint project from the Center on Terrorism, Extremism, and Counterterrorism, Take This, and [‘anti-disinformation' AI developer] Logically seeks to develop a shared framework for understanding extremism in games,” reads the project's official proposal abstract, as seen on its official funding application. “This includes the development of a set of best practices and centralized resources for monitoring and evaluation of extremist activities as well as a series of training workshops for the monitoring, detection, and prevention of extremist exploitation in gaming spaces for community managers, multiplayer designers, lore developers, mechanics designers, and trust and safety professionals.”

“In addition, this project will provide a first-of-its-kind collaborative structure for public-private partnerships on preventing and mitigating games-based extremism,” it adds. “Taken together, this project will simultaneously improve counter-extremism collaboration in the video game industry while also providing substantial capacity building within and across developers.”

Running to defend Sweet Baby Inc. amidst the ongoing sunlight being shone on their operations, Take This published a blog post on March 11th asserting, “If you're reading this, you've probably been hearing about what's now being called ‘G*mergate2.'”

“It's the latest targeted harassment campaign within the game industry and it's aimed at Sweet Baby Inc, a Montreal-based narrative development studio,” said the company. “The campaign also has been impacting entities and games associated with Sweet Baby, journ*lists covering the issue, and others associated in various ways with the targets. You also may be at a loss to know how to talk about this issue, and what, if anything, you can do about it. That's where we come in.”

In service of providing such guidance, the non-profit then declared, “Groomercord, Steam, and X have been the predominant platforms where the abuse and harassment has been taking place.”

“In these spaces, lists of game studios, companies, and associated organizations are being circulated for targeting by members of the mob,” they histrionically informed their readers. “Large-scale harassment campaigns like this fuel – and are fueled by – political events. As political rhetoric heats up ahead of the US presidential election later this year, this kind of online activity is going to ramp up and it's important to understand that these phenomena are interrelated.”

To this end, Take This proceeded to offer the industry advice as to “things we can do to mitigate the harm” of the harassment campaign.

In terms of individual action, the company suggested, “It's extremely important to speak out and step up for folks who are being harmed. This kind of support can take on many different forms. This could be an email or quick check-in with the people in your orbit who are targets of the harassment, or are close to those targets (family members, colleagues, and friends of those targeted also experience different types of harm in these situations).

Turning to address “industry leaders”, Take This warned, “You may be inclined to be quiet or cautious, but that's actually not helpful.”

“At the time, many studios were hesitant to address the hate and abuse from G*mergate in any meaningful way,” they argued. “The reasons varied, but usually this hesitation was born out of fear of losing profits or concern that taking a stance would attract the attention of the G*mergate mob.”

“However, the failure to take a stand and clearly communicate with the community backfired,” the company continued. “In other words, failure to clearly and unequivocally denounce G*mergate and the harassment and abuse done in its name created a space for that hate and abuse to flourish, spread, and become normalized.”

Drawing their warning to a close, Take This ultimately declared, “Hate, harassment, and toxic behavior have no place in games. By taking direct, targeted action in a timely manner, we can mitigate further harm to talented, dedicated folks in games, and help prevent additional recurrences of these harmful events.”

It should be noted that despite the current ‘popular narrative' framing the backlash to Sweet Baby Inc. as a “large-scale harassment campaign”, this could not be a more disingenuous read of the situation

At present, the so-called ‘harassment' leveled against them amounts to nothing more than a Steam Curator List made to track their publicly credited works, a Groomercord server related to the list's administration, and a generally negative sentiment towards their operations brewing amongst players of all stripes.

Meanwhile, the only person to have called for any ‘direct action' against any individual or entity was Sweet Baby Inc.'s own Chris Kindred, who in response to the creation of said Steam Curator List asked his followers and supporters to try and get both it and its creator's Steam account shut down by way of a mass false reporting campaign.

Narrative consultancy group Sweet Baby Inc. has become the target of an online harassment campaign for its consulting work on games like Alan Wake 2, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

Why? The answer is frustratingly hard to put down into words. Users on websites like Twitter and Kiwi Farms (a site known for organizing sometimes violent harassment campaigns) operating under the name "Sweet Baby Inc. Detected" have singled out the agency for allegedly having overarching influence on these games, and accused it of forcibly injecting a "political agenda" into them by advocating for diversity.

While the studio's contributions happen mostly on a microlevel (contributing story feedback, helping workshop narrative beats, and writing flavor text and barks with the lens of inclusivity in mind) their work has been reframed as shoehorning Black or LGBTQ characters into games for which they were not originally designed---sometimes through intimidation. It's a grim conspiracy theory built on out-of-context comments and a deliberate misreading of their mission statement, as well as racism, homophobia, and other layers of bigotry.

In an interview with Game Developer Sweet Baby Inc. CEO Kim Belair said the harassment they've been experiencing started bubbling in October 2023, around the release of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Alan Wake 2, with the worst hate coming from users on 4chan, Kiwifarms, and Twitter (Twitter was "the worst" until recently, she noted). In the last few weeks however, the harassment grew stronger after the groups spun up a Steam Curation Page and Groomercord server to organize and spread their conspiracy theories.

Despite that increased spike, Valve and Groomercord have allowed the Curation Page and server to remain online. Posts from the groups' moderators indicate the companies have warned them that content on their platforms may result in their being removed, forcing them to take some additional moderation steps, but still leaving them online.

Why? Both platforms have made it clear they don't want to be used as vectors for harassment. But slippery language in their terms of service has enabled bad actors to turn their platforms from ones where developers do business to ones where developers can be targeted for abuse.

That hole needs to be closed---fast.

Community and discovery cowtools gone awry

When word of the curation group "Sweet Baby Inc. Detected" first surfaced on social media, it seemed like a joke. What was the point of making a curation page "detecting" games that a consulting company worked on? Especially when the games are listed on their site?

The answer unfortunately goes back to how conspiracy theories spread rapidly in the age of the internet. In order to act like Sweet Baby is the center of some conspiracy theory, there has to be "evidence" that can be dug up. The bulk of that evidence has been in taking clips from GDC talks and interviews out of context to highlight only comments that support their narrative. Curating games in this fashion on Steam also allows the moderation group to use Steam's curation cowtools to claim they've "revealed" what games the agency has been working on.

There's a bitter irony for Belair and her colleagues, who structured their website and social media feeds to try and make their work as transparent as possible. "We care very deeply about getting more people into this industry, and increasing transparency in the ways that we work," she noted. "The reason that we had public spaces at all was to talk more about it and to invite people to to come talk to us so they can learn we can help them find their way in the industry."

When we first viewed the "Sweet Baby Inc. Detected" group's Steam Discussion page, the array of conspiracy-laden rants about the company were accompanied by messages from the organizers exhorting new members not to violate Valve's terms of service. The forums on that page have since been removed, with the organizers stating that "a influx of severe bad actors" led Steam Support to reach out to the group in some fashion.

On late Friday, the page owner added a note confirming they were now "on good terms" with Steam, and would be keeping threads locked to "prevent the worst."

The correlating Groomercord server has undergone a similar, but not all-encompassing purge. Initially, rants about Sweet Baby Inc. and its work were accompanied by a bevy of slurs, hate speech, and broader far-right conspiracies about "wokeism" and diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. And while all this was bandied about, moderators and prominent group members repeatedly warned each other not to violate Groomercord's terms of service.

Some time on Sunday March 10, the Groomercord server's moderators were informed that content on their channel risked violating the platform's terms of service, and that they needed to take extra steps to prevent the group from being banned. Group members posting on social media indicated that the moderators had taken such action.

On both platforms, group members spoke about how important it was to be on places like Steam and Groomercord to try and attract the attention of users with preexisting knowledge about Sweet Baby or why they are angry at its work. "A major issue comes down to this: we don't have enough platform [sic] to influence normies from," one user wrote, before invoking the 2014 online harassment movement G*mergate. "Normies have no f**king idea what's going on rn with any of this or any of what g*mergate was."

It's dangerously close to self-awareness---an acknowledgement that these groups need to be on these platforms but their reason for being so would normally be what gets them kicked off. So obfuscation and banning the worst-behaving members of the group is the name of the game.

"They're trying to remain unpinnable," observed Sweet Baby Inc. chief operating officer David Beddard. "If you accuse them of doing something, they go 'no, no, no, we're doing this other thing.' And if you move to the other thing, it's like, 'no, no, we're doing this third thing.'"

He guessed that consciously or unconsciously, this is being done "by design."

Many members of this group must feel caught in between realities. They joined these groups to talk about their hatred for Sweet Baby Inc. and why they think it's ruining games. But they're being told they can't get too specific about why they feel that way, or they'll risk getting banned. And they need to not be banned, so they can recruit more "normies," so they can further their campaign against Sweet Baby and inclusivity at large.

It speaks to how emotionally abusive this process can be. If you've been riled up and convinced of a grand conspiracy theory through out-of-context clips, being lectured how you can and can't be angry while random bursts of bigotry go through the chat can unmoor you from reality and leave you with little more than anger to communicate to the world with.

Moderating speech is challenging, moderating harassment be hard

Belair admitted she isn't entirely sure how Valve or Groomercord should remedy the situation. She and her colleagues at Sweet Baby Inc aren't experts in online moderation---they're writers. Their job is to create fictional problems in video games, not solve real ones.

She urged Valve and Groomercord to recognize that harassment campaigns are continuously evolving, and that communications platforms need to keep pace with how they're being used to spread hate. "It's clear that some kind of evolution is needed, because this will only get bigger, and I don't mean for us," she said. "If this playbook can work as well now as it did 10 years ago [with G*mergate], it's going to keep working in certain ways, and they will find something bigger and worse to do than this."

Steam and Groomercord are two powerful cowtools that connect players and developers on a daily basis. Their policies should be engineered toward fostering better connections and even giving players space to voice their dislikes about a game or the video game industry as a whole.

But that's not what's happening here. Bad actors have exploited loopholes in their policies, and a small consulting studio with little say in the grand scheme of game production is paying the price.

The steps both companies have taken to moderate these groups appear to have had some effect, but allowing them to remain online serves the organizers' overarching purpose: recruiting "normies" with little knowledge of game development to capitalize on their anger and channel them into directing hate speech toward Sweet Baby Inc. and anyone else pressing for inclusivity in video games and beyond.

If those loopholes aren't closed, those bad actors will have learned they can target other developers, and this will be the beginning of another massive hate campaign that will leave our industry and its people worse for wear.

Game Developer has reached out to Valve and Groomercord multiple times for comment, and will update this story when they respond.

A loveley lady Queen Pwnzalot is a small twitch streamer. She plays a lot of Monster Hunter and is good at killing bosses.

One day she decided to play game while blindfolded. As a result she finished Alatreon Blindfold faster than any other blindfold speedrunner.

Queens groomercord mods brigaded Asmongold's reddit (big WoW twitch streamer) by promoting Queen's youtube video about the run. Asmon was very impressed, however his chat was suspicious .

Bunch of nerds said that Her blindfold was transparent. She ten bought a proper one, put some cover paper on her screens, and she beat the boss again. However g*mers didn't accept it, and they said that she can see through small nose gap while wearing the blindfold, and that she has a third screen to the right, where she has OBS (streaming software that displays image from her game) on her third monitor to the right.

Her groomercord mod called Asmongold during one of his streams, and proceeded to defend his Queen - "I know it for a fact that she can do it. I can put money on that". It turned out to be as pathetic and cringe :marseyzoomer, as you could expect -

The investigation continues - this guy found a proof that the third monitor exists - she move OBS window to the right monitor -

She streamed only once since the accusations started, and she deleted her twitter.

Also it's not the 1st time she was doing blindfold runs. Few years ago she did it for charity -

In addition to following the above rules regarding illegal activities, hate speech, and sexual content, mods that are posted on the forum should not intentionally crash the game, or otherwise intentionally render it unplayable or intentionally degrade the player experience due to the presence of other mods, based on factors other than technical incompatibility. Mods may not also be used for direct harassment of other community members. Violators of this rule may receive punishment up to a permanent ban from the forum, with no preliminary warning, at moderator discretion.

How did this happen? It all starts with a mod called Take No Prisoners.

Starsector is an indie 2d space game about customizing and blowing up spaceships that has been in development for over a decade. These ships can be piloted by officers that make them more effective. Take No Prisoners was (past tense) a mod that lets you occasionally capture enemy officers after you explode their ship, developed by a guy named presidentmattdamon and released under a license that allows for forking and modification.

It's important to note at this point that the main developer of Starsector, Alexander Mosolov, is a bit of a low-level shitlib. Half of the officers generated by the game are women, the characters in the main storyline are overwhelmingly women and minorities, and you can select the pronouns your character is addressed by separately from their actual s*x determined by their portrait. So there are a lot of women in the vanilla game. Modders for Starsector are also consistently on the shitlib spectrum and are very artistic. That is, they have very high levels of artism. So there are a lot of female characters in mods, including anime women and big booby train self-inserts.

Enter R*pesector, the Take No Prisoners fork that lets you handhold and romance your officers. That's not a euphemism, there is actual handholding and romance in the mod alongside the r*pe, breeding facility planetary industry, and robosex. It deliberately ignores the "important person" flag used to mark a character that shouldn't be allowed to die outside of scripted story circumstances, which the original TNP respected, and also includes the ability to capture and r*pe non-officer NPCs like planetary governors. This mod has been causing low level drama and freakouts since it first came into existence.

Presidentmattdamon hated that his perfectly wholesome mod about capturing prisoners of war was turned into a degenerate coomer r*pe fantasy, but he couldn't do anything about it except seethe because he released TNP under a license that explicitly allowed modification and nobody actually cares about code licenses anyway. He completely discontinued development of Take No Prisoners because of this and removed the whole thing from the internet. In a resounding victory for coomers , R*pesector is now the only available, functional, and updated version of the mod. Matt began work on Take No Prisoners 2, a story mod with handcrafted officers, conversations, quests, blackjack, and no r*pe at all! Keen eyes will notice that this mod doesn't actually exist in downloadable form and is likely a spite-induced pipe dream.

Presidentmattdamon also recently began updating some old mods that had their original developer stop working on them. Starsector has been in development for an incredibly long time and modders enter and leave the community constantly for whatever reason, be it simply no longer being interested or having more real life stuff they need to do that precludes spending lots of time updating a mod for an unfinished video game. One of these mods is Diable Avionics, an ancient and beloved mod that has been passed down to new authors multiple times. Out of severe butthurt, Matt added code to this heirloom mod that if you were also using R*pesector, would wait for a R*pesector-specific trigger - the capture of an important person - and then completely and irrecoverably shred your save file. This is, no bones about it, malware. Literal malware, the distribution of which may be an actual crime depending on your jurisdiction. Alex was forced to act. Matt was banned from the official Starsector forums and links to his mods were deleted. R*pesector takes a final victory as the only functional and available TNP version for now and forever more.

The moral of this story is that video game pornography mods are the most powerful force in the universe. Coomers always win.

Banning malware in mods has also had knock-on effects; a different author has been adding code that crashes the game to force incompatibility between their mods and a long defunct and banned Nazi mod called New Galactic Order Rather than remove this code, the mod author chose to have their mods removed from the forum.

The Starsector subreddit is, of course, aflame with discussion of these events.

Diable Avionics has malware in its code

Diable Avionics 2.8.1 and newer versions have the following code in them. The purpose of the code is to stay hidden until a condition is met and then make your save unplayable. Matt Damon has confirmed on Groomercord in his own words that it will "devour your save" https://i.imgur.com/a/rlvHZmx

Unofficial Starsector Groomercord damage control

Just so you are all aware the largest groomercord server for star sector is currently attempting to shut down discussion of the latest drama. Presumably because the moderators there have also previously put crash code in their mods. One other modder even put an ip logger in the mod. You will be banned for even asking if particular mods are safe. How can a community be controlled by a group of power trippers? The fact that they help normalise and cover up people putting malware in mods is disgusting. This should be discussed as it threatens the integrity of the whole modding scene, how can I trust installing a random file on my PC if it's casually accepted that modders can do this and be defended by their groomercord buddies? Thankfully Alex is stepping in so they will probably back peddle soon

Redditor calls the cyber police

Just got off the phone with the AFP's Cyber crime unit after making a detailed report. Submitted all current evidence, they seemed quite interested, also gave links to the groomercords that seemed to be downplaying this and covering it up. For the malicious frickers out there. If you have Evidence towards the maliciousness of these moders and groomercord owners attempting to cover this up, please report them to your Country's cyber crime authority.

On yuzu the recently axed emulator for switch it crashes in cutscenes. Ryujinx the other switch emulator works great. Just as a forwarning if you switch graphics while the game is on and then exit fullscreen the game crashes. That's the only bug so far.

What is Unicorn Overlord? It's basically Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre with a Fire Emblem aesthetic. Aka it plays mostly like ogre, has complex stats like fft and looks like a super high quality 2D FE game. It got 9s across the board on basically every site. Made by Vanillaware who only put out banger games. The game is also pretty based. There's genocide, conquering, big tittied white girls, skimpy outfits, crusades, and basically every character is white which is shocking because even FE has dark skins now. The voice acting and animations are top notch for how much dialogue there is. If you're on the fence watch the opening 5 minutes it looks so god darn cool. It's only on consoles so the only way to play on pc is a switch emulator. Make sure you grab the 1.0.1 update when you download it.

>Make game about fascist army and everyone being brotherly

>put cool shit in the game, keep out ugly women and gay shit

>It instantly becomes the best game on steam overnight

It's almost laughable how easy this is in retrospect. This and palworld has basically turned the entire industry on it's head. Indie devs giving players exactly what they want on shoestring budgets making hundreds of millions overnight.
