"Jersey Shouroboros" is a hastily built critique of the never-ending cycle of self-destruction depicted on reality television. You play as Jörmungandr, a mid-level producer on Jersey Shore who also happens to be an infinitely long serpent god. Devour the cast, then bite your tail to lock them into a perpetual cycle of gym, tanning, and laundry.
- Best played with a PS3 controller on OSX, or a X360 gamepad on Windows. (You can also use your keyboard, but it doesn't feel nearly as good.)
- Three (3) action-packed levels, featuring your favorite Jersey Shore stars, as well as additional fictional cast members like "Person" to expand the Shouroverse.
