They are both fun games but not really communist. But they were partially inspired by Earthbound which is very Communist

>ness gets all his money from stealing and leeching off his dad
This game is about lumpenprolism.

That’s not true that’s impossible

There's nothing about political economy it's just race war and morality plays and some light yuri and crypto-Christianity. Closest thing to prole consciousness is Bugerpants.

Not that much; It can't really have anti-capitalist themes because no one is using capital to buy more capital except specifically in hotland via mettaton.

But it's gnostic which is close enough.

i have yet to see an actual communist game. disco elysium has it in there as a theme, but the communists in that universe are all schizo. the deserter is schizo and senile and always ranting about degeneracy. the main character is only optionally communist, and seems deluded anyway. the two mazovian students are just a book club. Infra-materialism is literally idealism and wishcasting.

if someone made an actual communist revolutionary game it would be treated with disgust and hatred by the mainstream game journalists and made unavailable on platforms.

There are some hotline miami 2 level editor campaigns where you play as the soviets but those are fan made, and more just people being weebs for the USSR than communists

There are a bunch of games featuring classless moneyless stateless societies like Death Stranding, usually it involves some sort of technological post scarcity. Then you got that soviet sim city game. One simple one I like is Half Earth Socialism where you try to save earth from climate change through central planning.

If I'm not lazy one day I want to try my hand at making some sort of idle game where you go from labor struggle to building the formal party to making the revolution. I think it could be a cool educative way to present that process and teach me some maths

>>801767
what would you want to see in a communist game though? there's plenty of indie devs with communist inclinations at least.

This clip might answer your question

idk but my friend ragequit undertale at undyne and im still mad about it

Mother 3 was definitely anticapitalist. Undertale/Deltarune have a lot of obvious influence from Mother, but by themselves they don't really have anticapitalist commentary outside of one-liners you'd find on the front page of reddit or pre-Elon Twitter. Nothing that's an actual endorsement of socialism/communism or anything resembling Marxist themes.
