Really nice take on the theme and UI looks great. I just wish there were more posts, so you could play it over couple times without facts repeating.

It would be funny how well this game fits the theme, if it wasn’t so real! 😂 Honestly, it’s a really well made game, well tailored around the theme. It doesn’t feel much like a game given that it’s all about the real world, so it’s could be spun into more of a skin over a “flash card training app”.

That being said, it does have a lot of potential to be woven into a fictional story that unfolds during the game, where you’re watching multiple feeds to weed out fake news. I’d be interested to hear if you continue to develop this and get some more content in there! Let me know if you’d like my complete notes, especially if you’re considering to continue the development!

Thank you so much for the feedback. If you have anything more to say we are more then pleased to hear it, and, (if we develop fakebook further) implement it. We are actually considering on expanding it in the future, there are no plans though yet. The idea of a story telling game definitely was't in our heads until now, but I could see the potential here, as a very… special way to tell a story… ;)

At the moment we are searching for ideas to "finish" or expand on the game, and every idea and piece of feedback is very much appreciated!

Hey!

First of all, congrats for finishing the game! I've never seen something like this and I have to say that it was a lot of fun to play it. The UI is very clean, modern and the idea... very unique, I love the use of the theme.

I am pretty bad at the game but I got 50% right, it was very fun. I usually give some feedback when playing a game but this one is very polished and everything is on point, well done to all of you!

Congrats!

It would be really awesome to have you playing my game too, if you don't mind of course. ^_^

Developer(+2)

Thank you for the feedback! Let's be real, it is neither easy, nor any sign of skill to get a good score at the game, and I've seen way worse scores then 50% so don't be too sad ;P

I was going to play your game, but sadly It is not available to play in the browser and I'm generally very careful with downloading stuff from the internet, then I saw your 250 ratings, and.. well I don't thing you really need my feedback anymore anyways ;P sorry!

(could be a good idea to include a web build in your game. Since you use Unity, as I saw on your YouTube video (pretty cool by the way), creating a webGL build is not too hard or any more stress. But it just removes the hassle and "scepticism" of people like me to download your game!  (You could also check out my devlog if it comes out any time soon... Moobits - YouTube) quick little self promotion lol))

loved perfect UI!!!

Submitted(+3)

Usually, I'm not really into this type of game, but I must admit that it fits perfectly the theme, and the graphics really brings a lot of personality to it ! The sounds were discreet but efficient, and the "facts" were really interesting, I learned a lot =) !

You made me enjoy a quiz, that's something not a lot of people can be proud of =p. Overall a solid entry, good job !

Developer(+2)

Great to hear that. I am really happy about this, because I think there are way to few "good" and actually fun games to play and learn something. 

Thanks for your feedback, glad you liked it. Probably thanks to m_dc and jumbshd, who did an amazing job at the ui and audio!

Definatly proud that we made you enjoy a quiz, and if you actually learned a thing or two; then thats all I need to go to bed happily ;P

Submitted(+3)

it was interesting, I discovered things I didn't know

Submitted(+3)

 Awesome game. Is there a  full release coming soon because I want one ^_^!

Developer(+3)

Thanks for the feedback!

We were thinking about how to expand on the idea, do you have any ideas or suggestions?

Submitted(+2)

Mabye a score counter to see how many you’ve got right!

Submitted(+3)

Great game! I just thought that you can make the posts closer to actual Facebook posts.

Developer(+2)

Thanks for the feedback, we may change that in the feuture! 

To be honest, nobody of the team actually uses facebook, fun fact (actually true) the ui is inspired by the twitter ui, but don't tell anyone, they are going to sue us anyways :)

Super game.

Really clean and interesting idea, Menu and UI looked perfect.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback!

I didn't plan or expect it to be perfect or nearly perfect already, but great that you think that, thanks :)

Submitted(+3)

Very fun! I learned a lot, haha

Submitted(+3)

mark are you watching, sue it!!!! lol

Developer(+1)

It would be an honor if he would (play, not sue) ;P

Submitted(+3)

Very educative!

Submitted(+3)

46% lol, I was surprised with most of these answers. The commenting is an amazing touch; also appreciate that the game doesn't move to the next fun fact without you actively selecting the correct answer, it lets you re-read it to really soak in the info

Developer

Thank you so much for the great feedback!

The comments were added in the last few hours of developing, I'm really pleased with that feature, although it was a hassle to inplement; glad to hear that it was worth it!

Submitted(+3)

Very interesting game. I loved the aesthetic.

Submitted(+3)

Excellent take on the theme and I really enjoyed the game taking place within the UI of the app. Also, using the comments section to provide additional info was a really good choice!

Firstly, this game looks incredible; m_dc did an amazing job. The game has a pretty simple concept but you've executed it really well and clearly spent a long time polishing it. It's always really interesting to see how easy it is to fall for fake news. I definitely feel like this could be used as a tool to teach people to look out for false information posted online. Really great job.

Developer(+3)

Thank you!! Actually it's the first time, that I do nearly all of the art myself (because Mogamer didn't do anything important :) ), so it's great to hear that you liked it :)

Submitted

Well, you did very well. Make sure to keep it up! (I've edited my original message you give you the credit you deserve)

Developer

Whaaaaaaat? :)

Developer

This is fake news

Submitted(+3)

Very cool game idea! It would be nice if there would be more questions, or not all of them at once, so you could play again. Anyways, it was fun, and learned something new also! :)

Submitted(+3)

Got a score of 69%. Nice! (Also, great game concept. Very clever and very fun!)

Developer(+3)

Thank you, but who cares about the game concept, if you got a score of 69%   :)

Submitted(+3)

The game idea is really great and the game is really funny with the comments. :D
