Nominate Orwell For The Steam Awards!
[ 2016-11-25 05:01:02 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hello investigators,
After the release of Episode 5 we took a much needed break, but now we're back on deck refining the game with some small updates to squash those bugs, fix up some typos that got through, and overall improving the stability of the game. Once the build is stable, we will then begin the process of making Orwell available for Mac and Linux systems, before looking at some other possible updates in the future.
But today, we need your help.
Steam has launched community voting for The Steam Awards, allowing players everywhere to vote on their favourite games of the year! We're humbly asking that if you enjoy Orwell, that you cast a vote for the game in The "Whoooaaaaaaa, dude!" Award. Described as "Some games melt your face. Maybe it was a crazy plot twist. Maybe you just got your wisdom teeth removed. Either way, this game BLOWS YOUR MIND", we feel that with the twists and turns that Orwell brought on a weekly basis, that maybe we fit into that category. If enough of us cast a vote in the same category, we might even get the nomination!
Also, don't foget that December 1st The Game Awards will be announced, and Orwell has been nominated in the Games For Impact category. Tickets, and viewing information can be found on the official website.
Until next time, stay vigilant!

Big Brother has arrived - and it’s you. Investigate the lives of citizens to find those responsible for a series of terror attacks. Information from the internet, personal communications and private files are all accessible to you. But, be warned, the information you supply will have consequences…
Orwell is a new governmental security program that has the power to survey the online presence of every person in The Nation. It can monitor all personal communications and access any computer. To preserve the privacy of citizens, human researchers examine the data Orwell finds and decide which pieces of information should be passed on to the security forces, and which should be rejected.
Selected from thousands of candidates, you are Orwell’s first human researcher. And when a terror attack rocks the Nation’s capital city of Bonton, Orwell, and you, are immediately put to the test. Starting with a single person of interest, you'll help the security forces build out and profile a network of potential culprits.
But are these people really terrorists? What does the information you reveal to Orwell say about them? What if you find out things about them that not even their loved ones know? What is the real price of maintaining the security that the Nation is yearning for?
Investigate the digital lives of citizens.
Search web pages, scour through social media posts, dating site profiles, news articles and blogs to find those responsible for a series of terror attacks.
Invade the private lives of suspects.
Listen in on chat communications, read personal emails, hack PCs, pull medical files, make connections. Find the information you need to know.
Determine the relevance of information.
Only the information you provide will be seen by the security forces and acted upon. You decide what gets seen and what does not, influencing how the suspects will be perceived.
Secure the freedom of the Nation.
Find the terrorists so the citizens of the Nation can sleep safe, knowing Orwell is watching over them.
MATURE CONTENT WARNING
Please note, Orwell includes mature language at multiple points throughout the game as well as mature themes and is not suitable for younger players.
