As a Bouncer, No Less!
Not Tonight is a dark little satire that asks what life would be like in the UK if all those Brexit talks went really badly. Like, suddenly there’s an extreme right-wing government running the show and people are getting forcefully relocated kind of badly.
You play Person of European Heritage #112. You’ve been assigned the job of bouncer. You must check IDs, manage guest lists and deal with unruly customers, all while contending with normal British weather. Fun! There’s a resistance to join of course, along with potential upgrades to your apartment, clothing and equipment.
So far the release date is set for ‘Soon’ on Steam, with a console release coming later this year. There’s something about this particular brand of dystopian world that seems a little too close to reality. Forced relocation and job assignments seem outlandish in the UK, but the setting is otherwise very grounded. The various venues, the clientele and the setting are all just plausible enough to be rather chilling. Hopefully we get some more detailed release date information soon. Meanwhile, check out the trailer below! I really appreciate the use of actual news footage to lend the whole thing a bit more authenticity.
