Great concept! would be cool to add more feeds to control with different preferences, maybe some people like the bad jokes!
That's definitely an interesting idea, thank you for your feedback!
this is a really wonderfully done game! its so interesting learning more about the user as you choose your options. I honestly got attached to them and wanted to choose all the most positive messages I could to steer them in the right direction. it made those ending posts feel really satisfying knowing I helped
Thank you for sharing your thoughts of your playthrough, the team's writer is glad hearing that his intention is well conveyed!
Really interesting idea, I'd love to see this fleshed out a bit more in a fully-fledged game. Awesome job!
Thank you for playing and the kind feedback!
I really enjoyed it! the concept is very interesting! being able to influence someone through their feed is such an intriguing idea
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for playing!
Really unique, relevant and thought provoking game. Well done!
To expand on the idea maybe you could have it so the goal of the game was to keep engagement by provoking the user or feeding them click baity content. Or you could have different users that you need to feed different kind of content to keep them engaged.
Thank you for your feedback! The idea of multiple users is something that came across our mind while deciding on the idea, definitely will keep it in mind for the future.
Very compelling and one of my favorites so far. Definitely the most interesting decision points were between multiple "bad" options.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
