Grassroots is actually such a humorous and innovative idea. I love the fact that you force the player to think politically about what may or may not influence the people's decisions. The simplicity of the "Yes" or "No" mechanic was really nice and the artistic style really tops it off. :) Sweet game, nice work. Ps. The audio can get a little annoying (particularly when answering the questions.)

Got a couple of "null" bugs but even with that this was funny and well worth the 5 minutes of play.
Loved the concept and only having 10 seconds to sway some one was a nice use of the theme. Bravo!

Innovative and fun. Really worth spending more time to polish it and make it into a big game.

...Do you even give a poop about null? Really nice-looking.

It's fun, Innovative and funny. I love the art style as well! There were a few times where the questions wouldn't display but other than that I loved it!

I just totally won that election. I think it was my stance about haircuts that put me over the top. Funny and great art style.

I like it. Good story. Actual in my motherland Russia. You got my vote!

Fantastic! It was hilarious, and a good idea based on the theme. I think I ran into some glitches though. Sometimes questions wouldn't appear and once I it only asked "What do you think about null" and any answer given wouldn't affect the meter. (Although, I can see why that would be intentionally added, I just wasn't for sure if it was or not : )

Great entry, although I feel a bit let down by the impact of choices. Sometimes you get twice the same question and YES is right the first time and NO the second time. Weird! Cool-looking though!

Love it! One of the best I've played. Fresh idea with a really really cool artstyle. Really good!

I clicked to start but nothing happened, using Chrome.

Love the art style. And gameplay is interesting and unique

nice idea :3

Awesome entry! Really liked the idea!
What's up with null though?

The game did not agree with my stance on null, no matter how I answered.

You should leave that in, but not as an error condition :-)

Fantastic game. The bugs kind of made it better. Others have mentioned that there is no good stance on "null", but I especially liked one citizen who never had a dialog box, so I just agreed to things, which wasn't dissimilar from what I was already doing. Great work, and really beautiful style.

Sometimes "null" would pop up. It's quite a fun game though! Loved the music and art, and quite funny. Very nice entry.

Great game. It is a little long but the art style and humor are very good.
