Died of Exposure
Died of Exposure is a darkly satirical interactive web game by HoneyWired that plays out the slow, brutal death march of freelance promises, unpaid spec work, and “great portfolio opportunities.” Built as an unforgiving, retro-style Job Trail simulator, it forces players to navigate the modern gig economy where your bank account drops to zero long before your follower count ever saves you.
Died of Exposure holds up a black mirror to creative exploitation. It’s part interactive satire, part industry PSA, and a definitive reminder that exposure doesn’t buy groceries, pay studio rent, or keep the lights on.
