I’m a game developer currently working on Dystopicon, a dystopian life simulator where you get paid to watch television… maybe it’s not that dystopian after all

I've made a new video about Dystopicon showcasing the words the press has used to describe the game. With the editing I wanted to pay homage to the trailer of a great movie that has, in a way, inspired Dystopicon. Can you guess which one? #indiedev #solodev #indiegame #dystopia

Hey @iampaulmcnally, thank you so much for your review of Dystopicon. What you wrote is exactly what I wanted to achieve with the game. I know it's a risky approach because the game isn't for everyone, but after reading your article, I feel completely satisfied with the result.

Here's the link: escapistmagazine.com/news-dy… By the way, the thing about the political channel isn't a bug, but a design decision. It's kind of a glitch in the system that players can take advantage of if they notice it. Like finding a loophole to avoid paying taxes hahaha

Big Brother is watching. Unfortunately, he also wants you to watch TV. BigMacDaddy dives into Dystopicon, a wonderfully warped game about propaganda, obedience, rebellion and keeping your citizenship rating nice and healthy. nag.co.za/2026/08/27/dystopi…

"Get paid to watch television" as a dystopian premise is such a good hook, feels like the kind of satire that only works because it's barely exaggerated. Hope the festival bundle push gets Dystopicon in front of more eyes, that's a pitch that should sell itself.

Great game and good people.
These ex-Disney animators spent 8 years hand-drawing an entire game on paper - You play as a cat in a narrative platformer - A love letter to classic animated movies - They've donated €10,000+ to animal shelters Would you play this? It's called Stars in the Trash.

WEIRD INDIE OF THE DAY #38: Dystopicon by @PalitroqueDev Robots have replaced humans at work so the government assigns you a new job: watching TV. • Earn a salary based on which channels you watch • Spend it on basic services to keep yourself alive • Obey the government or secretly help the rebellion AI finally took every job and humanity’s final career is watching TV. I am prepared for this future. Available on Steam: $6.79 store.steampowered.com/app/3…

The Steam Cyberpunk Festival begins, and Dystopicon will be taking part alongside a huge number of amazing games. While most of the attention will naturally go to the big titles, it's still a great opportunity to bring some visibility to our little dystopia.

Hola, soy el autor del análisis, he de decir que ni se me había pasado por la cabeza la posibilidad de ignorar los códigos, podríamos decir que el partido ha cumplido con lo suyo y me ha lavado el cerebro jajajaja 10/10 y sobre lo que ocurre con ellos, si, al final lo descubrí 😁
