A very nice looking game, with a fun theme, but without any real gameplay. Also, if I'm going to be a diabolical shadow government leader, it's a shame I don't get to see anything from my evil plots except a number of people killed. Perhaps a few ICBMs flying around the globe, I mean disk, when I start a war would've been fun.

Pretty game and nice idea. Reminds me of plague inc, which I played to death. Some minuses: Current theme has not been utilized to fullest extent I feel and game play is not engaging enough.

I like the way you visualize this earth under control-- literally trapped, alone, a lie. Neat ideas too, I like the way you can interact, I just wish there was more visual interaction when you accomplished stuff. It felt incomplete, like it needs more mechanics in place to be a proper game. I really like the premise though, the ideas you have going and all the interfaces are nice!

@Keppu Thanks for the comment, I really got lost a bit due to the time and be my first participation in ludumdare. I will implement other things over the course of days xD

@bificommander Truth! The game was kind of monotonous and no challenge, but I intend to implement it with things. But I already feel victorious to have completed my first jam. Thanks bro

Very well made game overall; I love the artwork, music, and story of killing as much of humanity as possible :). However, unless I am missing something, the gameplay seems to be just click on as many things as possible. While the things I was clicking on were funny, the game itself wasn't really challenging and didn't require any strategy.

Very well polished and innovative game With great use of theme. That interface looks divine. Probably missing some design elements to get players engaged. But overall, great job! Also good job on making the game realistic with the earth being flat - jk!

Amazing! I’ll do the feedback in Portuguese, because I know that you speak on this language, ok? :D

Curti bastante o game! A interface ficou muito boa e intuitiva, com o tutorial então, não precisou de mais nada para compreender as mecânicas. Acho que você fez um excelente uso do tema, combinou em 200% com ele! Eu só senti falta de algum tipo de "moeda" talvez, para comprar as armas. Acredito que isso deixaria o glame ainda mais interessante. De qualquer forma, é apenas um detalhe. A atmosfera do jogo está incrível.

Parabéns pelo trabalho e por ter participado da LD! Um abraço!! :D

I liked the idea of a game that pretty much compiles every single conspiracy theory out there, provided - I hope so - that you are not a Flat-Earth believer yourself. The interface is simple and the atmosphere is quite ominous, given the theme. However, the main drawback, as others said, is that the gameplay is mostly about clicking everything at the same time and repeat until the game ends.

I thought I would get some backlash if I chose too many weapons, because it's a classic game mechanic, but I did not really feel it was the case here. I was confused by the "Danger" variable because I did not really understand what it was linked to, even though I was able to keep it under control. Once I realized the "Danger" did not really represent any backlash, the game went pretty smoothly, a bit too much maybe.

I also agree with earlier comments about the lack of visual feedback, but I guess this was because of lack of time to implement it.

I think it's an interesting game idea that leaves space for many more gameplay mechanics.
