Interesting choice to make all the oil rig workers white and all the pirates black.

To be honest, I didn't really notice this before you mentioned it (and I am not white).

Could just be that the dev didn't think about it enough, although I do agree that randomizing the external appearance would be best.

Fuck oil drilling, real life or games. Is this some kind of fossil fuel propaganda?

Got to disagree on this one, this a mere video game simulation for entertainment.

And it's clearly made by an indie dev (they don't even have a publisher).

That may be so, but there are 10,000 better things you can base a game on.

This kind of game normalises a process that is slowly destroying our planet.
