Create and defend the common knowledge from the vectorial class. Liberate the passive consumers from the domain of the market.
Notes:
The game can be won and is intended to be short, don't complain about it :-)

Bit of a silly game really
I mean, I bet all this talk of evil corporations in the market brainwashing people into being "passive consumers" makes sense to college students after a few joints, but it doesn't really stand up to any amount of scrutiny.
For example, when the evil corporations suck up the ideas that the people in the middle spit out, it is because the individual has decided to copyright an idea of theirs and make money off of it. Who are we to judge them for that? If someone has an invention, it's morally acceptable for them to want to capitalize on it. If someone has an interesting idea, it's completely OK for them to put it in a book and SELL it.
Moreover, I reject this "passive consumer" malarky. I'm a consumer. That's what kind of economic agent I am. I work for firms and use the income I earn by doing this to consume goods and services. Does that mean I'm a passive, unthinking drone who just does what the evil corporations tell me? No, it means that I buy stuff that I like. I might buy TVs, I might buy books, I might buy airplane tickets to go abroad and experience another culture. Consumption does not render me an uncultured, ignorant moron, and I find the assertion that it does offensive.
Yeah, so in conclusion it's a decent enough game, but the message is incoherent and, quite frankly, offensive.

Interesting
Anything's possible, so I don't see why this would not be plausible or feasible. With limited imagination it's easy to think something is impossible, but that's only because of lack of imagination. In my eyes, this is how society should be, and I believe there is a way to make it happen. After all, our consciousness is fueled by ideas, living in what is essentially an infinitely expanding bubble of thoughts - shouldn't ideas be free? I'd rather not live in a world where we are told what to think, so whatever factors make free ideas implausible (economic, social, etc.) simply need to be changed in order for us to improve society for the better. Just thought I'd give a little input.
I thought this was an interesting message which was well executed, it's perfect for what it is. Good job on this :]

Not Plausable.
Not a plausable theory.
Although interesting and well thought out.
Like was said before; awkward controls.

Free Culture Game:
A playable theory.
But not a feasible one.

Controls too awkward.
I'm sure this game has a great message, but its very confusing and hard to place ideas in to people's heads
