according to the popups from Epic the free games will continue until
morale improves...
Or alternatively until jan 6.

I think Jan 6. might be more likely.

anyway, Human Resource Machine, it teaches what basically is Assembler
programming in a nice cartoony environment with some dark nihilist
humor. I played it through pretty quickly, although I left at least one
of the side stories undone because they were a bit too much for me back
then.

There's a sequel as well, which is supposed to teach more advanced stuff
like parellel processing. Also with cartoon figures, but I haven't
gotten that much into it yet.
