How does your entry adhere to the theme "virtual pet"?
You're a politician governing a libertarian who dislikes all attempts to govern him.

lmao such a good take on the theme. I finally gave into his whining and started defunding everything and there was a military coup. Oops!

Interesting take on the theme. I included it in my Virtual Pet Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out. :)

  • Loved the music. Something about 'obviously recorded from playing out of a speaker' audio quality is nostalgic, and I always liked that song.
  • Annoying that I couldn't resize the game's window to fit my screen without going fullscreen entirely.
  • I don't know where it installed to. Why a .exe and not a .zip? Easier on the end user, especially if they're rating jam games lol.
  • Was a little confusing before I realized it was a 'watch and let stuff happen' kind of game, I was spamming buttons and accidentally made a decision without realizing lol.
  • It was kind of slow-paced, and didn't hold my attention for a long time. I wanted to see what happened when he inevitably ran out of mood, but I also figured that would take hours...
  • I like the art style and the way the interface is designed.
