Holy shit this rocks. Sterling work! I'd like to have more explanation of the characters: what party/SPD faction they're in, what they do as advisors, maybe a short blurb about their past. Ideally this'd be like Victoria or CK3 tooltips, but even a section in the Library or a list with a search would be great too. More visuals in general would be nice, particularly pie charts for popular support and whatnot. I'm not sure how possible these suggestions would be in this engine.
I hope you do go through with your plans for a release on Steam. This is an incredible starting point, and the fact you did it in a month is a miracle. I think you'd need to extend the game into 1936 and the next election or the end of the civil war. Best of luck!
PS: does contacting the SFIO/Labour do anything? I thought they'd show up in the civil war ending.

Thanks! Visuals would be possible but would take some work; there might be choicescript-style bar graphs. I probably wouldn’t want to extend the game to 1936, since by that point the game’s story would be totally fictional, and I would prefer to keep the story more grounded in historical events.
There are some choices in the game that are just objectively not very useful, and IMO contacting SFIO/Labour is one of them lol (contacting the American socialists is a 100% waste of resources).
