I remembered enjoying this on PC when it came out in 2013 and think it would be an excellent game to port/recreate on the speccy.

Any reason a lofi (lower fi!) version of this wouldn't be technically feasible?
Edit: someone has already done the memorable theme tune!
Papers, Please
Re: Papers, Please
God that's bleak, but brilliant.
It looks totally doable on the speccy. Not the kind of project I'm likely to do but I'd love to see it.
Just some speccy mockups would be nice for starters! Anyone?

Re: Papers, Please
I played Papers, Please years ago. It's good fun.
Kind of an 'admin simulator' with dark humour.
As well as remembering all the new rules chucked at you and quickly referring to memos, manuals etc, I recall most of the physical gameplay is about organising documents/files on your tiny workspace, opening documents, flipping pages, which is heavily mouse-driven. You have to be fast. My gut feeling is that having a controllable cursor would make the game a bit slow, so it might need an alternative method.

Ah yes, my wife still says 'Glory to Arstotzka!' whenever we go through customs.
