As an introvert, I usually don’t have any problems being alone and not communicating with other people. I’m pretty sure many of you can relate on this.

But when you look at it on a big scale, you might notice some unexpected problems with the introverted society. While we sit in our personal informational bubbles, we are losing ability to cooperate and organize into communities. This gives a big advandage to billionaires, politicians, and other “elites”, and they use this advantage to gain even more power.

This is almost a physics law, and it’s fully described in a book “The Narrow Corridor”.

But this post is not about the book, and not about confrontation between the State and Society. It’s about how I decided to address the problem by creating a game, that simulates that confrontation. The idea is if people had a gaming experience of fighting together against inequality and injustice, it would be easier for them to do it in real life.

What I found during developing the game is: it’s nearly impossible to develop it alone. Big surprise. The kickstarter project didn’t take off, and the friends of mine, even those who liked the project, didn’t like it enough to participate.

So if you have any thoughts of how and where to find people willing to be engaged in this, please tell me, because I’m out of ideas.

TLDR; I’m developing a game that teaches people how to cooperate, and I cannot find anyone to cooperate with

    It doesn’t require you to interact, it just gives you that possibility, and shows how different political/economical systems work.
