Soda Drinker Pro is a video game that simulates the act of drinking soda. The game was written by Will Brierly. Soda Drinker Pro was developed over the course of one day in 2008.

Gameplay

The player uses the WASD controls to walk around the soda drinking simulation. The mouse is used to look around the simulation. The left mouse button places the soda onto the players mouth, while the right mouse button sips the soda. The soda has to be at the player's mouth for the soda to be sipped. There is a soda meter in the upper left hand corner of the game that measures the amount of soda left in the players cup. Once the player has successfully completed drinking the soda they can then move to the next simulation. Throughout the environments, there are "Bonus Sodas" which can be collected.[1][2][3][4]

Official Release

Soda Drinker Pro was posted to Steam Greenlight in March 2013.[5] On January 29th, 2015 the game was Greenlit by the Steam Community. It has also received a release on Xbox One [6] and the Google Play Store as an Android app.[7]

Vivian Clark

Soda Drinker Pro contains a secret game titled Vivian Clark that can be accessed during gameplay by entering the house in the park level.[8] In the game's original version, it could be accessed by standing next to a particular rock for over thirty seconds.[9][10] Vivian Clark has been compared to Wario Ware, LSD: Dream Emulator, and other abstract games.[11]
