    I remember how big of an issue this was and how because we didn't have a R18+ rating back then. But even now some games still get banned Sludge Life is a recent ban and is still but Sludge Life 2 is not gamerant.com/sludge-life-...

    Invece che spingere esplicitamente chi gioca verso degli obiettivi precisi, il game design di Sludge Life stimola la curiosità grazie a elementi che vengono forniti (come la macchina fotografica) o negati (come la mappa e una storia lineare). Di Francesca Tremulo. [dall'archivio]

    4. Sludge Life 2. I loved the first game. One of the top get-high-and-dick-around games of all time. Just taking pictures, tagging walls, and peeing on stuff. The sequel is more of that, I assume. 4/20 is coming up tho....maybe I make time for it

    Ha ha, don’t worry I’m used to it! My fault for giving the games such stupid long names. I wear my Sludge Life cap at every games event I attend and usually end up talking about your game more than my own, so it’s fantastic to hear there is some reciprocal promo happening! :D

Requires setup, specific mods and playing on creative/peaceful settings if muted)

    I jest, of course. I'm sure NewBlood will submit the game to the appropriate Nanny State authority down there. I just never forgot that Sludge Life 1 was/is unavailable down there for want of classification, likely relating to the ability to drink/smoke in the game (maybe not the main reasons).

    Sludge Life I tried a few times to get into this game but if my eyes weren't hurting from some of the visual effects I was just getting bored of the gameplay loop. I dropped this and I doubt I'll give it another chance. 1/5

    My favorite story of Epic setting money on fire was when they bought the exclusivity rights to put Sludge Life on EGS, then when the game actually came out the devs were like "we already got our bag from epic, peace" and made it free for the entire time it was exclusive.

    5. Sludge Life 2. If I had a nickel for every game I hit credits on this week that took a break from gameplay right at the end to play an entire rap music video id have 2 nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice and really weird that it happened twice so quickly

Or or or!!! SLUDGE LIFE, It's a super fun game about tagging/street art. Sorry for spamming names; got exited 🫣

    Played some of #SludgeLife this evening. It's a surreal and rather crude game about urban decay and boredom where you use parkour to spray graffiti tags everywhere, a bit like a grimy cross between Jet Set Radio and Mirror's Edge. There's also a dedicated fart button, lots of chill music and you can take pictures of cats.
