The Feature Creep

My ISP doubled my bill, so I made a game about it

· Bandwidth Barons

A while back, my ISP raised my monthly bill. The reason? Fiber cables are apparently very hard to maintain. I'm sure they are. Hard enough to nearly double the price, anyway.

So I did what any reasonable customer does: I grumbled "they're doing everything they can to rob us" at nobody in particular. Then I started wondering how an ISP actually works, and this game showed up.

To keep it properly tragicomic, I made a game where you can't turn a profit unless you mislead your customers. Any resemblance to real ISPs is, of course, purely coincidental.

The incremental side is inspired by Universal Paperclips. Fewer paperclips, more fine print.

I hope you enjoy it, and please leave your feedback in the comments. Unlike my ISP, I actually read it.
