Well, this one just hits a little too close to home, but it was fun. I'm not normally into seeing a bunch of numbers fly up the screen, but this parody got me hooked.
Nice work. Nice incorporation of the theme and a minimalist aesthetic delivery.
One note I think would be that sacrificing connections should give you a bigger boon depending on who you are sacrificing. Or maybe flip it: you get a bigger boon for sacrificing interns than you do the CEO, or something like that.
I also couldn't tell how that stat change was contributing. For example, I sacrificed the interns, but then I just saw my reaction count be lower, so it was actually better just to have the interns. There is probably a lot going on under the hood that I wasn't aware of as I smashed enter.
Nice job.
