Played this one a couple times to try the different endings. Really cool. I wish the wheel aspect was more incorporated.

Was a little burnt out on politics games when I tried this.

Kinda cards against humanity like game. I would say I enjoyed it, though it may have played it safe and tacked on the theme.

I love the concept of this game so much! And personally, I see the spin to win connection: spinning ideas in your head to come up with a winning speech. Incredibly unique interpretation there!

I think my only feedback is just on juice, it feels very static and rigid atm. Feel like it would be cool to see the cards possibly have motion or just a bunch of sound effects to go with everything going on in the game. In terms of gameplay, I really liked it; my only nitpick was just on being timed. I tend to be a slower reader, so I felt kind of penalized for it. But other than those nitpicks, good game!

Thank you for the detailed feedback! We’ll definitely try to polish it some more and upload a post-jam patch. Once again, thank you!

Love the vibe and how you incorporated the theme with making sentences from cards. Surprisingly fun! Very detailed pixel art too! Nice work!

I love this game! I wish the card effects were a bit more specific, since your points are always positive if you click on every card that isn't orange. I was laughing the whole time at the art and the speeches I could make, good job!

Developer

Glad you liked it! We’ll definitely consider adding a tooltip hover on the cards or something of that sort after the voting period. Thanks for the feedback!

An accurate modern politician simulator. I loved the overall vibe and sense of humor. The gameplay complemented them very well. Nice job!

Glad I got to play this, this is so funny. Love the concept and the visuals however I kept running into an issue where it would freeze after my speech, so I wasn't able to play as much as I'd like.

Thank youuu so much! We really appreciate the kind words. Annnd about the freezing issue, did you happen to click the '' Next Question '' button on the right side of the screen? It usually waits for that click to keep going! Let us know if you're still getting stuck after that!
