I think I do. Here’s my latest Flash game, created for a professor who wants to test the effects of violent video games. If you notice, the game play is exactly the same. Which version do you like more?

    I like the non-violent one better because I feel less guilty for killing these “target bots” with their weekness, water baloons. Everybody knows robots don’t have feelings or souls, so it’s OK.

    The violent game had a satisfying splat effect with the death of each person, as opposed to the rather non-exciting fading away of the targets……

    … .. maybe if the targets exploded into a bajillion pieces instead of just fading gently away…. …. :D … … point made?

    That’s still violent though, isn’t it? Exploding is pretty violent I’d say.
