Greenpeace Games November 30, 2004 - by Gonzalo Frasca We have previously discussed the Atari 2600 Greenpeace game, but thanks to Sofia, I think that we just hit the ecological gaming jackpot! Greenpeace actually host A DOZEN different videogames on their website. The themes and quality is varied, but there is enough material here to analyze for quite a long time. So far, the only game that doesn't seem to work in my browser is the Whale hunting game. But the rest are really interesting and worth a look. Comment from Tom Elsner on December 3, 2004
Maybe this is of interest: we have developed a number of games mostly for Greenpeace UK over the years including the StopWhaling! game (http://www.ae-pro.com/projects.php?p=gpwhaling). The latest one being GM Warrior which you can play here: http://www.ae-pro.com/projects.php?p=gmwarrior Comment from air_mj on March 16, 2005
