The only two things i can really put my finger on is the english level isnt 100% perfect, which is completely fine but it is a negative none the less. The second thing is that I COULD NOT BUY NUCLEAR POWER AT THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME, in real life like 100% of our energy problems would be solved by nuclear power, but in this game i didnt start with 6m to buy it and thus i went bankrupt, even though my country is millions in depth :(\n\nAnyways those two things are really minor, nice game in general. Took a bit of getting used to, but i got there in the end and finished the game.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":723196,"author_name":"Skyward4d","author_uid":"skyward4d","epoch":1633415141,"text":"I liked the idea. Really solid use of the theme.\nI enjoyed the simluation aspect and how it obviously relates back to an issue in the real world.\n\nAfter a couple of failed attempts, I managed to bring the climate back under control, despite reaching 0% satisfaction for both Industry and Energy sectors. So a minor bug there, but overall very nice implementation.\n\nAlso the intro was a surprising addition that I enjoyed.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":743420,"author_name":"Amikatag","author_uid":"amikatag","epoch":1633559018,"text":"I failed this game.

The English is pretty rough, but understandable enough and really appreciated and great that you had multiple languages supported. The music is nice and fits well and it was a great use of the theme.  Unlike some others, I was able to buy nuclear right at the beginning and it was pretty smooth sailing from there,  just had to run down the cash a bit :)","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":744100,"author_name":"ilbini","author_uid":"ilbini","epoch":1633567516,"text":"I couldn't save the world, and i tried a few times so i guess i am not the person :(\nThe game is good, the intro is awesome and i enjoy these kind of games. I think it was challenging not knowing what my selections could lead too, i found myself guessing most of the times but i understand it was the idea.\n\nSome things maybe to improve my experience next time :D\n\n* Graphics could improve, not a blocker to play this game but it is always nice to play a nice looking game. Maybe using more images ingame i dunno i am a programmer myself so dont count me on this\n* I could not find how to restart the game, had to close and open, could be useful to have the retry button in this kind of games were you expect to fail a few times\n* Maybe the game could be simplified a little, i could not handle all the information sometimes. Maybe the same idea with less choices or less indicators was good also but to be honest maybe its something personal and the game is easy and simple for everyone. Even in the year result maybe use more colors to easily match for example, all sociaty related information is blue.\n\nThe humor is great, the texts and voice acting are cool, good job on that.
