The alpha build of the video game Big Brother, originally developed by MediaX in the late 1990s and based on George Orwell's 1984, has resurfaced online after being considered lost for years. This game's demo, which includes levels and logic content, presents players with the character Eric Blair as he combats authoritarian forces. Initially planned for release in late 1998, the game faced cancellation due to licensing issues, despite early accolades such as winning Best Interactive Product at the Satellite Awards in 1999.
"Big Brother would have put players in control of a new character named Eric Blair as he attempted to rescue his fiancée from the Thought Police following the events of 1984."
"Big Brother was around 70% complete at the time and scheduled for a fall 1998 launch, blending detailed graphics and real-time gameplay elements."
