Playability:
Spinning plates style gameplay with a deeper narrative. Works well but moves quickly so it's hard to get a handle on at first.

Theme:
Fits the theme well as it involves global perception mixed with a political narrative. Would love to see this take more time to get deeper into the theme.

Cleverness: 
Could make for an interesting idle or turn based game. Would be interested in seeing this expanded in any direction. For now it's a bit too chaotic to shine through.

Artistic Style: 
Simple and consistent throughout. Would love to see some background to go with the characters.

I love a satirical rant. It felt surprisingly coherent to me to be honest. The early gameplay didn't feel like I had much control or power in the matter, which felt very on point for what you're trying to convey. I really enjoyed the idea of being an OP late-game God that didn't give a F# about the world by the end, but I found it difficult to get to that fantasy. I see the other commenters feel similarly, and I agree that balance is a key issue. If you continue with it post-jam, or for when you build your next jam game, I'd highly recommend getting as much external player feedback into your brain as possible, and building ways to get it into your design cycle. For me it meant releasing early and building in public. For you it could be different, even just hassling a few friends to play it every few days.

I love the idea of this game. The satire an options in it are really good. The downside is that it's a bit too quick, and as a numbers go bigger guy, I didn't quite get the satisfaction I wanted from a game like this. So slowing it down, and maybe looking a bit more into balance would make it even better. But all in all, I like this type of satire.

Interesting resource balance.  Tried every option as soon as I could but couldn't quite win that way. Some of the controls are very dark/morbid.
