An oldie but perhaps worth throwing into the thread. Escape From Woomera was a
game developed by a group of us around 10 years ago as a direct response to the
detention and subsequent mistreatment of refugees arriving by boat to Australia.
It was federally funded, which particularly pissed off the Immigration Minister,
when the game went live.
