The Simpsons they have mocked, laughed and mocked everything we can imagine. The series created by Matt Groening has not left a puppet with a head and video games are no exception. An example of this is the infamous game of Waterworld that we could see in episode 10 of the eighth season.
Milhouse is playing in the arcade machines, specifically one dedicated to Waterworld, the disastrous movie starring Kevin Costner. His virtual counterpart was not much better, because with just one step, the Game Over appears on the screen and Milhouse is forced to reintroduce coins.
Taking that joke and taking it one step further, developer Macaw45 has created the entire game. Kevin Costner’s Waterwold is the name that receives the work that you can get via itch.io and it is a very complete adventure.
We will be able to fight in the atolls, in the ocean and find the long-awaited dry land at the same time that we trade dirt or build a water purifier. There are final boss fights, lots of hidden secrets, and even a true ending that you’ll have to figure out how to unlock.
“I’ve always been fascinated by the fake video games occasionally seen on The Simpsons, and the one from Waterworld always caught my attention when I was a kid“, explains Macaw45. As you can see in the game just below, you have to scratch your pocket a lot for the damn arcade to let you play.
