Sega should sue them for intellectual property violation, given that the MAGA-ized logo still has the SEGA shout.

    Sega never goes after their fans for their fangames, but they could bring the whole "Genesis does what Nintendon't" full circle and attempt to sue the Trump admin...

    Though given Sega's dogshit legal skills with regards to Archie and Ken Penders, they might as well just ignore it.

    Ken Penders didn't actually win the lawsuit, they settled out of court, he won publishing rights to some of the Archie Comics. He does not actually own Scourge The Hedgehog, Sally Acorn, or any other Sonic character, the reason Sega doesn't use those characters is because Sega doesn't want them used.

    I know Penders didn't win the lawsuit, it was moreso Sega and Archie's incompetence when it came to organizing rights for character creation and archving important legal documents pertaining to the ownership of licensed IP that allowed Penders and other Archie Sonic writers to walk off with their legally dubious OCs.

    Can someone just shoot me in the head? This planet's save file has become corrupt, and I no longer wish to be on this planet.

    Absolutely. I work in the industry, and one of my predictions for the coming years is a further commercialization of games as the cost of development falls, either the actual dev or just plain entrance cost. More places will make micro games to sell things, like mobile game ads for every day businesses. I was saying to my wife, I expect politicians and weirder avenues to take up games as a means of engaging with audiences.

    I sincerely hate that this is one of the first examples of what I imagined.

    I didn't click it either, but now I'm wondering if I'm going to get put on a watch list for not clicking it.

    If you would click on it, you would realize quickly that this is created just to generate outrage, for example the Tetris game is not even playable.

    Ro Khana and Massie have another discharge petition regarding Epstein files, and they want provide media something else to be outraged about.

    I wonder what would happen if someone were to release the exact same games, but Trump and his cronies were the victims.

    Distraction to give media something else to talk about instead the second discharge petition regarding Epstein files.

    This also looks like AI slop. For example the Tetris is unplayable (the lines don't clear).

    I think the Tetris game is supposed to be a border wall-builder. Thus having lines clear wouldn’t make much sense.

    But that makes it unplayable. There are many ways they could make it work, but they didn't, which shows that really the only purpose for these games is to create outrage and have media talk about it instead of important topics.
