No Thanks!<\/a> has a trailer and a Steam page. It&#8217;s Molleindustria&#8217;s most ambitious project to date. Production started on January 2021 as soon as it became clear that the elections weren&#8217;t going to be overthrown. It was meant to be a project for the sleepy Biden era, during which thinking about about a better future didn&#8217;t seem like a luxury. It expanded in scope and size, eventually spilling over the current dystopia-in-progress.<br \/>\nI still think it&#8217;s imperative to envision radical alternatives to the present, but I also worry that as things get worse every day, an ecosocialist utopia it may be perceived as an escapist fantasy or as a What-if-Bernie-won alternate reality. Anyhow, in the next year or so I&#8217;ll be trying to finish the damn thing while also humiliating myself on social media to promote it.<br \/>\nIf you are reading this, you should <a href=\"https:\/\/futurenothanks.com\/\">wishlist the game<\/a> on Steam to feed the algorithms.<br \/>\nYou can follow its progress on <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/molleindustria.org\">Bluesky<\/a> and on abominable platforms like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/molleindustria\/\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@molleindustria\">TikTok<\/a>.
