Pretty cool, liked how the choices affected my relations with the other places in the world. Good job on this!

This looks amazing. Could you upload it to Kong or something so we don't have to download it? I feel like more people would be willing to actually try it that way.
I played through it a few times, and it's interesting. This type of game is fun for me, and it could become amazing if you 1) continue to polish it for a bit (a criticism that isn't valid because it can be made of EVERY ludum dare game) and 2) get a proofreader. There's a lot of misspellings and minor mistakes that collectively take away from the stories.
Also: doing NOTHING makes you a "powerfuldemon". I don't see how. I, personally, often do nothing and yet I'm not all that powerful. There should be an ending where you create an Atheistic world or your powers drain away because people stop believing in you or something.
Are there only two endings? I can only become a "powerfuldemon" or a coldhearted conqueror. Also, why the heck am I "remembered" as anything? I thought I was playing the role of God. God isn't "remembered" because he's immortal- he'll always be alive to continue shaping the world. Also, there's no real answer to some of the questions, even though i can think of an answer, and all of the things in your power to do are done in a way that could be coincidences. Why am I "Remembered" when people don't know for sure I've done anything? People wouldn't hate me if the US nuked Brazil. They'd hate the US president, and the ones who've seen the destruction firsthand would complain to me. Still like the concept, though.
Thank you for your commnets "Gabestph" there are 3 ending but in the edit it will be 4.I know that god is immortal and i really wanted you to play as a god but unfortunately some of us don't live in a free world and there are something that we are not allowed to do.another thing is that i have learned english language by myself so i apologize for my bad grammar and mistakes.
Nice one Big Bus :)
nice game,Goodjob
This is the best implementation of connected worlds I've seen so far, well done.
Well done! Good art style and I Love the concept as well
Very good work, your game is very very very veryyyyyyyyy cool
This one was pretty cool
I liked the game, esoecially the art and music. The effect of some choices seemed illogucal to me... And some note about downloads: 1) Web version is not working 2) When I downloaded Windows version from GamesJolt, I got 90 mb archive, that included Windows, Mac and Linux version. Please, separate them, so people culd download only the desired version :)
That is the nice game, I liked the starting menu and the letters and endings, although it may be little longer because I could pass it over and over unitil I reached the best result.
Overall a really good game! :D
Very good game. This is an outstanding idea! Also I like music.
Lovely art and nice atmosphere, although sometimes the choices and their potential consequences were quite unclear (do I really have to love Justin Biebers music to not want to murder him?). Would love something deeper with a similar system, but good job considering the jam time limit!

Interesting game, if somewhat simple. The concept of being God and receiving the requests of people is cool.
The English is a bit broken, perhaps you could ask for some native English speaker to proofread your texts.
I enjoyed playing several times to discover several endings.
Good take on the theme, very nice art style. A bit heavy of a game, but good work overall!
The artwork is well done. I also like the spinning globe.
Very nice entry... great mood scores here.
Very beautiful game, very moving. Some humor, too. Thought-provoking.
OS/X and have only exit game displayed, music plays and nothing else happens :(
Beautiful music, beautiful art, thought-provoking story. Probably one of the better games I've seen this LD; definitely better than mine, and I also tried to go story/feels heavy with it.
This game is really nice. As it was already mentioned the choices aren't that obvious at times. It was fun to find all endings.
Great artwork and presentation, but you would really benefit from approaching your topic with a tad more subtlety. Also might be a good idea to find a native speaker of english to edit your texts.
I like the concept of showing the player how everything is interconnected and tipping the balance in favour of someone might bring disadvantages for another one. The mechanics are also solid and help convey the message. What I didn't like was the prospect, that equilibrium will never be achievable. But I guess that's kind of a world view thing. Also kudos for choosing such a controversial topic =P
"web" should be playable online, not a download.
Yup. Web still shows up like a dropbox download.
May I suggest google drive? :)
I'll check on you later mate!
Interesting idea, but I found the outcomes a bit random - though I understand that's part of the game and at least the feedback system was good so I knew how to approach it the next time.
I would have liked for the gameplay to have been a little bit more consistent. I felt like the impacts of my choices were effectively random, and that I was punished for solving problems. The structure of the game was I think kind of hamfisted (Maybe write in your native language and get a translator on the team?), but still, kudos for you for trying the topic!
I love that your choices usually have unintended consequences because of the problem complexity.
In general it leaves the creative power that you might get as a god out (since there are only 3 choices). Often some basic viewpoints are left out.. like with beiber there is no neutral choice.
The graphics were good but disconnected a little bit. The menu worked great but could have had more work.
Thank you for your comments . It seems like that the OS/X version and the Web version has problem . I will try to fix it but I am not sure to be successful .
Good, enjoyed the Bieber part xD
Really good title! Played through a couple of times just to see the different results. Music also adds to the mood and the drawings are impressive!
Nice game !
I like the basic mechanic of the game but I find that the choices offered are maybe too few and should be expended a bit (maybe 5-6 choices). I often felt disconected between what I chose and what I was really feeling about the situation at hand.
The art style is nice and the music relaxing. Good job !
Fun game with lots of replay value, but it could be a lot better if you got somebody to proofread.
Nice illustrations! Some of the moral dilemmas or their consequences are a bit forced, but it's an interesting entry nonetheless.
Great game! really enjoyed the gameplay and the storys behind the different prayers. Good job!
Hello All.
We Thank you for your Comments about the art of the game.We hope you guys enjoy the game and have good time with it!!.
The sketches were beautiful. Fantastic idea, and well executed (particularly Bieber). Text areas were a bit awkward and some decisions were pretty unforgiving but great overall.
Lovely art and music. The results of the choices felt a bit arbitrary - some of them were considered 'bad' by the game when they just as well could be considered 'good' or 'neutral'. Either way I had fun with it for the short while it lasted.
Awesome! Liked joke about bieber and unexpected turn with soldier. Great job!
Audio and visuals are great.
The idea is quite interesting but to me it felt a bit forced that the "good" decisions always had real "evil" consquences while the "evil" decisions had "good" consequences.
SPOILER!
I found the decision for the drunk father really destroyed the fun of the game to me. Knowing the consequences I could only choose to restrict the freedom of a lot of people who didn't do anything bad, let the mother get killed or to murder the father. In my opinion murder is one of the worst things that can be done. The father has an alcohol problem. That is no reason to kill him. That is a reason to help him get out of it. Yet it was the only choice with "good" consequences. That was pretty frustrating especially as there would have been so simple solutions that would have helped the father and the rest of the family like sending him to a rehab centre.
END OF SPOILER
Maybe if the choices/consequences had been a little more subtle or more decions had been available I would have enjoyed it more.
Of course this is just my personal opinion. So please take no offence.
And you never get everyone satisfied with a game, so keep up the good work. ;)
Enjoyed the questions, simple, but good art, never got to see how latin america felt from the last question, because there is no delay before the win screen comes.
Very good. I was often surprised by the choices the game considered to be best (*spoiler* most of them tend to be somewhat selfish in my opinion).
Also I wish there was a bit more connections between each problem (maybe if the situations you have to deal with depends on your previous choices).
