How does your game fit the theme?
Typically, in our day to day lives, we watch the videos while the mysterious algorithm tracks what you like and what you do to suggest the videos which you will click on the most. By reversing the roles, in my game, you are the algorithm, suggesting videos to others.

I thought this would be repetitive, but it's actually pretty fun! Especially when it's kind of ambiguous if a viewer will like a video or not so you're forced to really think about what you know. It would be fun to have some extra risks and rewards for your decisions, like a bonus for finding videos the viewer didn't know they'd like.
Original idea, fits the theme very well! I feel like it could be fleshed out more with more things to evaluate about the person, and more varied interests. Of course, for 48 hours this is great!
Actually really great game! Very creative and fun to play! Well done
Very nice idea! I can see the potential of it being more involved with lot of mechanics and strategy in further development
Its an interesting idea, I actually tried a similar type of game for a previous jam. I like the core gameplay loop, however it doesn't have much progression, which discourages the player from really caring.
Like how you interpreted the theme
little ghosties :0 10/10
This is a really innovative take on the theme! I love this idea; there are a lot of places you can take it. I have a few notes, but overall, this was a really great game.
I beat the game only using search histories, and it was pretty easy. It would be cool if you hid some preferences in the other tabs or made some preferences a bit harder to deduce. However, this feels more like a post-jam update than something that majorly changed the gameplay experience. Furthermore, I wish I could have just seen every video I could choose from at just one time. Like, over 75% of my playtime was spent scrolling through the videos to find the right ones.
