http://www.stfj.net/art/2009/loselose/Lose/Lose is a video-game with real life consequences. Each alien in the game is created based on a random file on the player’s computer. If the player kills the alien, the file it is based on is deleted. If the player’s ship is destroyed, the application itself is deleted
Play if you have the balls to risk losing a random computer file >_>

If the game has access to your computer file, it means the game is a virus/trojan itself.

I love the moral idea, hate the thought of it though, haha. Checked sources to see if it was just fake deletion of files, but every site says it's actually a real deletion... might want to put a warning in the subject Squirt lol.

yeah dunno if its a virus or a trojan but it seems really retarded to give some random game that much access to your computer...

apparently it starts off with images and pdf files then it moves on to different extensions.

You're supposed to download it from the tiny link under the video on the page. I need to play this game because deleting random files will once and for all prove my manhood.
