About: This game was created by a Flash developer named Jonny Norridge - you simulate a worker in a sports shoe factory and have to make 3 sneakers per day. It is really difficult to meet the production quota, make enough money to survive, and even get enough to eat, all while facing pressure not to unionize and being forced to work overtime for no extra pay. This game exposes a lot of issues about labor and human rights.
