Good Game!!!
The dictatorship theme was very well executed with great monologue from the advisor. Though the gameplay has pretty much no relation with the story, somehow it kind of went together.
Great work overall, and there's a lot of content for a 3-day jam! I enjoyed this one.
I don't think I can give any more feedback to your game. The game is really intuitive and looks/sounds good. Also on the texts you did very well. Even when I was stuck the game made me wanna finish it. So it challanges the player very well in a way so that he continues playing.
Overall a very good game :-)
The plot associated with it was quite possibly the most interesting part of it - the puzzle part strongly reminded me of one of New Super Mario Bros' minigames that I really enjoyed. A classic (to me) that never fails to make me think. $12k is a decent amounts of earnings for a few days, isn't it?
Very nice game, great job!
I found myself trying to hit the "directives target," on every single level, and that was especially frustrating when the restart key didn't reset my "directives issued." A quicker way to retry levels entirely (or simply an undo history) would be appreciated.
The 3D perspective with the squishy swap animation went a long way. I played for so long that I forgot I was in Firefox's fullscreen mode and was wondering why I couldn't close the game, haha!
