Good game - I love overtly political stuff like this. I was invested in not causing a nuclear war but I ending up doing it by accident. Made me read about the B-59 incident, so you get a 5 stars as far as I'm concerned for thematic relevancy and accuracy - I think games like this could be really good educational tools. No negatives, apart from the text was sometimes was hard to read. Awesome job!
I like the usage of actual/close to actual images of the individuals in the game. Perhaps add a restart checkpoint before you fail, so you don't have to restart the entire story. Other than that, good job!
I really liked this! The visuals are interesting, altought sometimes too "blurry", but the usage of black and white makes it cool to look at.
The story is very interesting also, and the choices are kinda tense, i feel like there could be more games in this style, usually they are about dating or stuff like that, but politics/war makes it more interesting (at least for me). Congrats!
