Once I figured out that I could send out soldiers with the arrows around the house it was a decent amount of fun. I ended up attacking just about everyone and that seemed to work out decently. Great submission

Cool game :) I especially love the music

Fun little game!

Took a little bit to figure out exactly how it worked but was pretty fun once I figured it out. Really like the art style!

Love your take on the theme! Really cohesive art style and the music matches perfectly. Found it pretty engaging to try to balance my rate of money with satisfying or defeating the citizens. Just wish I could have won by going full training! Nice work :)

Cool, stylish-looking, with catchy music. Really loved it amlost in every aspect excluding it's too short, but it all because of time limitations. Great job!

Pretty fun idea. The music is a certified bop. It took me a while to figure out that I could pay the mobs, but once I did I had a great time. However, when the anger level gets too high I found that it was basically impossible to pay the mobs in time, which made it basically an instant game over.

Well done on getting the game done! I initially missed the part about clicking the arrows to send your soldiers out and managed to win the first level by just taking the hits haha. Its a cool game, the music did a good job of adding to the atmosphere and really well scoped.

Audiovisually its great and it's quite fun to play as well. Feels polished. I like it!

Great game with great aesthetics. Only struggle was finding the deploy button, maybe give it a white outline and animate it to make it more visible?

Felt like a dictator while playing this game. :D Great music and sound effects. Good job!

Great music, had to spend some time on the intro screen until the game started itself. :D Had fun figuring out the game mechanics as well, though the rioting people were much too strong for me on level 3. Maybe my "Spend all money for soldiers" approach was a bit too aggressive!

Nice game!:) Is it ever worth it just paying the people instead of sending soldiers? The music is very well done!

Graphics and music, and with that the mood are great. Cool idea and take on the theme, portrays vicious cycle democratic societies can fall into, but I kept feeling the implementation is too clunky to be as enjoyable as it could be. Maybe it's just my hate towards any sort of strategy games where reaction time is of importance. But it felt good to see this thing on the screen.
