I like your take on "seconds". Nice change from the 10 seconds until you die/lose/etc :)

As a non-native English speaker I had to consult my dictionary to find out what 'seconds' mean here.
Anyway it's innovative.

Just like real government. :)

This was hilarious. Great work!

Good use of the "seconds". Interesting gameplay, nice work !

YES! Haha, I really wanted to do something with a non-obvious meaning, but couldn't think of anything. I think this is really well done, and actually a really great and entertaining puzzle game! Thanks!

This is flipping brilliant. You are an actual winner. I'm serious, man: this has creativity, humor, logic... It's actually *fun*. No matter what people say, this thing is awesome. It reminds me of Democracy 2 (Lite). Only problem: it gets pretty deep pretty darned fast—a lot of calculation required very early on. Oh, and there was something unclear to me: I solved one level using "TAXES AND GOOD", but I didn't understand why. What does "AND GOOD" signify?

> What does "AND GOOD" signify?

That I cannot spell! I should be are good.

Thanks for the kinds words!

- I've fixed the typo in the second scenario which read "and good" instead of "are good" as per the rule allowing typo fixes.

Hopefully this has not introduced new errors!

I like your take on the theme, refreshing :D Who knew kittens were so important where matters of state are concerned?

That was hilarious and puzzle-ish. Great job.

Wish gameplay was more deep, but bonus points for creativity.

Oh interesting, was a bit like trial and error though

A good challenging game mechanic!
