Welcome to Notable Deeds.
You are tasked with managing a graveyard. How fun. Problem: You have limited space for graves and souls need to be laid to rest on the correct side of the cemetary according to their notable deeds in life. Choose carefully when deciding whether someone lived a good or bad life. Choices matter and the final score is tallied at the end. But beware. Some deeds are so bad in fact, the soul should not be burried at all. Happy grave digging!!

Could be fun with a little bit more balancing and some additional crazy crimes/death certificate !
- It felt like the game didn't have an end (if you play well), maybe have a set amount of certificates fro a level, harder levels could include more certificates.
- At the beginning it was quite a hard to figure out what is going on, I think it would be nice to have the timer only when the player is reading the deed, then have three buttons and once a button is pressed you don't need the time constraint to place a grave (or even place it automatically).
- The weird thing is, the graves despawned in real time, so it was in your best interest to place he graves down as late a s possible, you could just have a unit timer that goes down when you place down a certificate.
- I think the deeds could use some complexity, at the beginning I didn't exactly agree with everything, but I think I got the judging process in the end (or just got lucky later on). Maybe you could split the deeds not only to bad and good, but also minor and major.
For me it seems a bit too easy, I stopped playing after some time but never got into a room shortage, I also still had 4 of the 5 capacity left, I only burned a wrong certificate in the beginning.
There was also never any lack of space, and you get penalized working quickly seeing as the timers keep running while you idle.
The game looks good tho.
