I felt proud, even though I'm not an American.
Good job, great effort - I really appreciate that.
In here, we are all Americans.
Feed Butt - The internet's anus. As a hater of fb- lmao! This was brilliant comedy gold. Make Americans laugh at our own ridiculousness again! Main music was very fitting ... pure badassery
You were able to laugh? I've spent most of my time openly weeping.
This game is so fucking funny as a non-american that interacts with a lot of american stuff. The little portraits with the modified names are really good because I recognize like half of them. The others are just mysterious voices from the great american beyond. The writing is on point, the direness of the situation being played for laughs and for patriotism is great, and the overall art and setting is fantastic. Genuinely a game of all time. Sad I had to shoplift in this economy though, very clearly someone’s at fault and we’ll never know who it is.
To be fair, some of those Great Americans may not be immediately clear even on this side of the pond. Knowing half of them is pretty good, and about the level we were shooting for, I think.
As for shoplifting, given the prices, sometimes heated shopping moments do happen. It certainly beats getting shot in the parking lot.
Thanks for playing!
I stopped watching the news in 2016. Did something happen?
Truly patriotic All-American art. I am in Texas so I know. Don’t slip in the sarcasm.
(But really hilarious and replayable)
Texas is easily one of my top 50 states.
Priceless, just like that one cheese I can't afford.
Thanks! Who can afford cheese these days?
I bought cheese once. It's the main reason I'm not a homeowner.
thought process: "huh that sounds like no truce with the furies--oohhhh." totally disco and insane that you wrote 15k words and 17 endings. love the grocery shopping
We managed to write 15k words by making most of them bad.

Thank you for playing!
Thank you! I am so happy that you got the "no truce with the furies" thing. I was a bit concerned that it was going to be too deep a cut and no one would get it.
Also, ngl, I had to take a break from everything for a few days after getting the game out. It might have been a bit much for the time frame.
funny, topical writing!
Thank you! We gave 'current events' a pretty hard Google, but gave up when we realized that life is a nightmare. I'm glad to hear it came through on the page.
Thanks, and thanks for playing! It was definitely a fun one to make.
