This one was a lot of fun to experiment around! I like seeing what outcomes I can get depending on what the game gives me. After trying to give the right judgment for around 6-7 days, I also tried seeing what would happen if I stopped using the red stamp. In a different run, I also tried just giving wrong judgments to everyone. Very well put game you have going on here!

I can see where you're coming from when you said our game had a similar concept, and I thought that was very interesting!

Thanks for the great feedback! It's interesting to hear how people play the game. Win & lose conditions are definitely something I want to expand on, among other things.

Tutorial was phenominal. I at first tried treating it like a proper job but then had fun laughing at the idea of sending back seniors who died of old age. Everyone got  a green stamp going forward.

Great dialog, art, and idea. 

Developer

Thanks. Fun to hear how people like to play the game :)

This was a fun game. I enjoyed stamping all the cards and letting everyone live. The tutorial at the start was great and added to the story. Great job :)

Very well made! What's here works well and I like the three stamps that you get. As you said, I can see that our games are very similar in concept! We were inspired by papers, please for our game as well. Good stuff :)

Fun concept! After Edith I got an error message.

Thanks for letting me know. Stupid oversight on my part, I've fixed it now.

It's easy to get these things all working and then break something at the last minute. I'll play again

Just a heads up, the web build breaks after stamping 2 people:

Looked like a fun papers please clone, looking forward to playing it when it's fixed

Same here, we tried the game but the game crashes after stamping the first two people :(

Developer

Thanks for the heads-up, it's fixed now.

Damn. Thanks for the heads up, will look into it.

Edit: I'm a big dumb-dumb. Forgot to update something in the first scene that caused an error. It's fixed now.
