Breedster. A cross between Friendster, tamagoitchi and an ant colony A new game by Dutch game maker drunkmenworkhere, known for his zero-content games and experiments just presented his latest game: Breedster. Here you have to keep your avatar alive by eating and defecating, and create new offspring by fornicating with others. But you have limited amounts of energy so you have to keep coming back to do those things. It can be quite an experience if somebody has fornicated with you when you were asleep. It sometimes feels like a virtual rape. So this game is a social experiment as well. Breedster is, just like Orkut, by invitation only but I've been a heavy breeder during the last days and have quite a few eggs to spare. So send me an email with subject "Breedster" (to keep my filters happy) if you want to take a look and I'll sign you up.
  • neat idea... I don't really understand why it's invite only... but really neat idea
  • don't really understand why it's invite only. Here a clip which may explain.
  • thomcatspike, point taken. That video is pretty funny. I especially liked the part about Blake who was looking for 'activity partners'.
  • Oh, so that invite I got today wasn't spam. *joins, ingests*
  • don't really understand why it's invite only. It's invite only because it's in beta and there will be changes made when the population grows. I still have some eggs left that are in need of a good nest.
  • Sound's like a great way to waste some time. I'm in. Addy's in my profile.
