No :)

There are some great ideas here, and it's unfortunate that they're spoiled by the presence of ai slop art in the icons and loading screen.

This is honestly a great way of highlighting how these terrible, fascist billionaires aren't just part of the problem, they're the logical outcome of capitalism's incentive system. When money is king, and profit is your prime directive, every moral consideration falls by the wayside.

I've also seen interesting arguments that that's why "ethical" corporations - that have options for consumers to feel better about our consumption - are never actually ethical. They lie about how natural and healthy their products are, or hide the labor conditions of their workers, or go under and die off because trying to be ethical is so much more expensive. It's one of the only places other than nature where you actually *can* apply the law of natural selection, and it's awful.

Oh and I genuinely love having a little manifesto to read before playing, my only complaint is that communism is the better system you describe. I think that if you researched dialectical materialism and the modern thinkers who have contributed to the ideology, you'd find that the 'society where the incentive structure is based around something better than just profit' is literally just communism

This is such a fun game, I love how it combines the element of a 'rebirth' / soft reset bonus from completing tasks you've already done before (my favorite part of that one unfinished game from years ago, I think it was called Groundhog Life) with bonuses that allow you to bypass certain obstacles once you've gained knowledge or technology that trivializes them. It scratches just the right itch, and now that I've completed all of the available content I'll fs be following for updates :)

I've been looking for someone to do Groundhog Life over again! So glad somebody picked it up after the original dev dropped it : )
