Congratulations for the game selected! I am really excited about the direction your team is taking, focusing on the theme of rumors and bullying from a perspective rooted in elementary school experiences. I believe this is something that many people can resonate with. I am also looking forward to how your game will be presented, especially since it seems to prioritize gameplay over narration. This approach sounds quite novel, and I am keen to see how it will unfold.

Hi! I agree that it's a good idea to dig into some statistics and relevant research papers to better represent the game's themes and fine-tune the game mechanics. Even though it took us a bit longer to complete the documentation, we all had well-defined roles, and everything proceeded smoothly. This is a great start.

 I am happy to see that you found a solution to the challenges you encountered in last week's devlog. Your innovative approach of using animals or vehicles to comment on real-world issues is quite impressive. This idea sounds very fresh. And your focus on UI elements is intriguing. It seems to be aiming for a rare type of game interaction, but it is also something special. I am looking forward to witnessing the game's progress and eventual realization, and also the UI art performance! 

Hi Grace! Our research directions seem similar, but the results are quite different, which I find intriguing. It at least demonstrates that this topic is a highly controversial issue in the field of social media. The viewpoints of taking a positive perspective on the internet and the signals of virtues among people is a rare angle, and it sounds attractive! Your approach to finding useful information has inspired me in certain aspects. I'd like to explore this new method in-depth for our research topic, as these differing outcomes are genuinely fascinating...

Hi Kalen! I must say your key points are quite convincing. Your careful selection of data and research papers shows a strong attention to detail. The idea of game mechanics intertwined with psychology and sociology sounds pretty intriguing. I'm really excited to see how the differences in data between "work" and "one's true inner self" will enhance the gaming experience for players. It'll be interesting to see how you represent the varied in-game reactions stemming from players' different choices.

Hello, Ash! I'm delighted to see someone researching this topic, as it's indeed a highly relevant real-life issue. The 65% to 85% range you mentioned is quite significant and cannot be overlooked. Therefore, I believe your research findings provide a deeper insight, such as how the housing crisis exacerbates people's survival pressures. It's worth acknowledging that using rent as a focal point to study the housing crisis is a very nuanced approach. I'm looking forward to your future content, especially regarding how you plan to educate players on addressing this crisis and your upcoming book publication.
