The folks of Australia had an excellent time over the weekend, as we resoundingly voted out a conservative authorities that had spent a decade doing…properly, nothing actually besides put their boots to the throats of the poor, the younger and anybody who thinks {that a} rapidly-warming planet may be a nasty factor.
I gained’t bore you with the main points of this—you’ll be able to learn extra right here in the event you’re —however the finish result’s that Scott Morrison, a man who as soon as allegedly shit his pants in a McDonalds, is not the Prime Minister of Australia. Whereas I’m positive there’ll be no scarcity of fossil gas firms, predatory funding funds and fascist-aligned media firms providing him a job within the months to come back, within the meantime he’s out of labor, and whenever you’re out of labor in Australia, meaning one factor: a go to to Centrelink.
Centelink is the federal government company that’s in principle supposed to supply welfare help to the unemployed, however which has been repeatedly gutted alongside ideological strains to the purpose the place it’s now, at an operational stage, overtly hostile to the unemployed, forcing Australians out of labor to leap by way of every kind of demeaning hoops simply to allow them to (attempt to) pay their hire for a month or two between jobs.
Which is a lot of the background you’ll want to get pleasure from Scotty Goes To Centrelink, a “surreal horror journey starring Australia’s thirtieth Prime Minister”. Launched over the weekend by Canberra-based developer Colestia, gamers should “Assist a newly unemployed Scott Morrison navigate the hellish welfare system that he helped construct”, as you’re taking management of Scotty in third-person and need to navigate a dark cityscape, delivering job purposes in return on your welfare cash.
