Cool game. Im not a big fan of this type of games so I dont have much to comparte too, but it was nice! Managed to take the capital after using all the cards that came in four territories that were kinda close and had many people. It took me some time to find out each post had a certain efficiency though haha. Once you understand how the game works, its pretty easy I think haha

Developer

Thanks for trying it out! Yeah there is no real loss state in there. Something to improve upon.

Super interesting concept. I left thinking it would be awesome to see if the gameplay could be expanded to have counter's the AI could do to circumvent your efforts. 

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, that would be cool.

A very ambitious game for a game jam, almost a strategy game. Had some issues with being uncertain of the affect of my my media posts were having on territories. Whether what color the territory was actually had an impact in inciting a revolt or not. Still an interesting concept worth exploring further. 

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

Took me some time to figure out what to do but once I started I kept going on. I wasn't able to take over the govt. tho lol. Its because of my poor management skills. Good game overall!! good job!!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

this game jam keeps surprising me more and more, was really not expecting a game like this to come out, really good, I enjoyed allot, at the had some difficulties understanding who I was at the beginning, I thought I was the blue ones and needed to conquer the white territories, I didn't understand were was the capital, but figure it out eventually that I have to gather people and make them uprize, this game feels very modern, if not to say completely modern, get people into memes to control their toughts, awsome

Developer

Thanks! :) glad you liked it.

Really interesting game, very unique! Pretty hard to figure out, there is a lot to learn. It also takes a lot of time to build up a big enough rebellion to try to attack the capital. The police feel very strong as well. The audio fits really nicely. Well done!

Developer

Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.

Nice game! I like the idea of social media and making chaos, I would love to have a mini country tutorial to learn while creating my first chaos! Overall nice game!

Developer

Thanks! thanks for the suggestion.

Good game, fun, but I ended up soft locking since the call to action post doesn't refresh the possible posts list (also ended up with negative populations due to what I believe is the same bug).

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I realized after that I accidentally created that soft lock problem, sorry 😕. Population I think goes negative because the police can hire from the provinces too with a hidden "loyalist" stat that pulls from the population but is not affected by your follower count. So for instance you can pull 5000 out and the population drops to 1000 but the police might have 5000 loyalists that can still be pulled out and subtracted from the population.

Developer

Great game! the tutorial could have explained a bit more in my opinion. good job!

Developer

Thanks! and for the feedback.

This is really fun and addictive!  Nice job. Would love to see more mechanics and complexity added. I eventually managed to take the capital and left it running a while but the angry mobs seem to wander about aimlessly :) 

Developer

Thanks! Glad you like it! Did the rebels beat all the police?

Submitted(+1)

Yeah they did! Took a while for them to bump into them tho

Developer

Nice! There is a small bug that make the police have an advantage at the end and so every time I play the police win lol. Cool to hear the opposite is possible.

Unique strategy game. I love the idea. But I think the government is too strong... 30k people...?

I put a lot of effort to create a 10k army...got destroyed immediately...

So, pretty cool concept. Just need some balance!

Developer

Thanks! I wonder if you just got unlucky with how the power distribution played out or waited too long because normally you can get through eventually. I did not really playtest and balance though so your feedback is noted.

I really like this unique take on the theme! It reminds me very much of Plague Inc. except using the idea of social media to gather a following! Super cool. Maybe make it to where there's a chance that followers can spread to neighboring states, that might help pace the game some.

Overall, excellent game; wonderful execution!

Developer

Thanks! and thank you for the feedback to make the game better.

Very nice and unique game! And also a really interesting twist on the theme chaos. I think it was very clear how the game worked after reading the tutorial, and the actions had a very distinct picture, which made it easy to remember which was which. It was also really clear what the correct way forward was, and what you had to do to win. The music fitted really well, the sound effects were really good, so it was a really enjoyable experience all round.

I did think the game was a little easy once I figured out how it worked. I could just make sections more and more angry until half the map was red, and then unleash one big army by suddenly spawning armies everywhere. Maybe it would have been interesting if the cops that walk around would reduce anger? This might give the player a bit more of a tactical choice of where focus their efforts. Or perhaps it would be interesting if anger would spread from one section to the other? Just some ideas from the top of my head.

Amazing submission! I really enjoyed it :D

Developer

Thank you for the in-depth feedback! I agree with your suggestions, some of them were on my mind as potential improvements but I did not have time to playtest them. I'll have to iterate and see how they play out.

A very fun and creative concept. The gameplay is really enjoyable as well and I love the addition of choosing your character. The idea of creating a rebellion is really good and has lots of potential. The sound effects when you pick the cards is really good. Overall a very fun and creative game. Good luck on the jam!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it. I thought the character selection was cool so it's nice that you thought so too lol.

Really clever, great sound effects, I enjoyed it! The gameplay is easy to follow yet hard to master, the concept is cool. I think this game could be much better with it's visuals enhanced!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! glad you enjoyed it.
