Thank you! It is indeed trolley problems all the way down! The first question that sets you up as a judge is actually one of the original pre-trolley-problem ethical questions posited by the philosopher Philippa Foot, whose work on virtue ethics gave us this entire form of moral quandary - we had a rather fun time sitting in a chatroom running through the early canon (as is normal on a Saturday night, surely).

Foot's work is really fascinating, in that although she takes up some ideas from Nietzsche about socially constructed mores, in her late work she concludes, in an echo of Kropotkin's work on mutual aid, that humans as animals evolved to live cooperatively and fit together, thus concepts such as justice, benevolence and fairness are natural traits within our species, rather than purely social constructs.

I'll definitely get some theming in there if we continue development so that we can have light mode and other player-friendly choices.
