Presidential Rise has lots of potential

So I came around to playing Presidential Rise, and I'll say that it's a very unique game from my perspective. I can tell that so much passion and dedication went into the project... Nothing like this is made the right way without it. Players must come to understand complex systems and overcome challenges based on those systems, which induces critical thinking and decision making that will draw those interested in the gameplay in quickly. 

I will say that the game isn't for everyone, as it has a niche that requires a certain palette to be fully immersed in. The process of learning these unique systems is facilitated and clear thanks to the tutorial, but may not necessarily be "fun" to players outside the genre. I personally think the game can be lots of fun, but mostly to the right demographic. 

Everything appears to be very well made, from the beautiful pixel art to the tasteful sounds and music choice. The only small thing I noticed was the resolution size, as the game seemed to be a small bit zoomed in on my screen, leaving a tiny sliver of the edges to be cut off (It could also just be my computer screen not matching it). This isn't a crucial thing at all, as the text and UI are still perfectly readable.

In my opinion, Presidential Rise has tons potential to be something really great someday. Please keep it up!

Thank you so much! I agree that the game has a specific niche, and I understand that not everyone may find it "fun." There are still many things I’m learning, and I hope to improve over time. I also appreciate your kind words about the art, sound, and music. I noticed you make your own music—great work!

Thanks again for playing and sharing your thoughts!
