Interesting take on the theme. The debate mini-game was pretty unique (maybe a little too easy, but very unique). I feel like the whole game could be based on it. The music could be a little longer, maybe with some dramatic pauses when characters talk. There were lots of mechanics going on, which was nice in a way, but on the other hand maybe focusing on one and polishing the heck out of it would be best. One nice touch were the letters, I had fun reading those in between days.
Nonetheless, pretty cool experience, and lots of stuff done for going solo! Good job!
