ngl this is the game that made me actually commit to submitting mine bc i saw it while glancing at the submissions page a couple days ago, and the concept interested me so much that i wanted to be able to rate it after my first time playing. the doodle art style is incredibly appealing to me, i adore it and how consistent everything feels, and now my doodle guy gets to be incredibly famous. did I wildly misunderstand the UI at first? sure, but that's most likely on me lol.

There definitely seems to be a pretty substantial element of luck, which while accurate to the real world it was interesting going through about 5-10 failed runs before one post clicked and suddenly I was at 10M followers in the blink of an eye, and experiencing what appeared to be my follower count looping back around to the negative integer limit within the same week. Still, once I hit that good run, seeing the numbers go up was super rewarding, and making silly sentences was utterly delightful. I could absolutely see this game being expanded with audio and more weekly challenges and upgrades, maybe a tutorial, and all around it just feels like a game that has a lot of potential. I could even see future updates that specifically incentivize trying out different play styles, like focusing more on one topic versus balancing many topics, and some sort of additional purpose or strategy to following other people and picking who to follow. All in all, it hits a great balance between being fun to play and having a good message.  Even without audio, I found this game to be impressively polished and solid for one week. Great work!

what the shucks i have a similar idea for my brackeys this is peak and simpler than mine awesome

It took me a while to figure out how to play it. I think that because the entire game is in two colors, there isn't a lot of clarity for the important things. My eye was never drawn to the trending tag, which meant I failed the first few runs. Only after did I use it and then the game was suddenly very easy. I even broke the number system.

I didn't expect to play this one as long as I did! It's very fun, and addicting

Submitted

i have all the followers!

Submitted

Surprisingly addictive. I kept going and going in endless mode. Love the art style too. Great Job!

Great concept! 1000x better than any real social media! I just followed trump's style and won really quick :D

Submitted

needs some audio feedback but other than that this is a really cool concept and has the potential to be a great fully fledged game

Submitted

spreading misinformation is always fun, great game!

Submitted

I have amassed followers over 125 times bigger than the population of the earth in twitter simulator

5/5

Submitted

it's really funny unique and i love when the prezedent makes a concerning tweet about a burger

Submitted

nice concept but after a while i hit an overflow with -663118502 followers and 37 billion likes. But nice game lol

Submitted

Every time I lost, I told myself one more round, and just kept going! Pretty addictive and fun game!

Submitted

The concept is very interesting, it really triggers that "numbers going up" addiction lmao.

Also, is this the dead internet theory everyone talks about? Even if everyone on earth is following me, my subscribers would still be 99% bots lmao

Submitted

Awesome visuals and super fun gameplay! For me, though, the inspiration is just a little too obvious.

Submitted

This is so good, the visuals are perfect, love the line boil effect and the Social Media Blue 

I got 100k followers I'm so good at lying on the internet

Submitted

The visuals are so nice!! I love this concept, very accurate lol. A bit difficult to understand what i'm supposed to do to succeed in each level, but i really enjoyed playing this!

Submitted

I loved the visuals so much! gameplay was a little confusing at first, but when the likes and followers started to accelerate, it was so satisfying. If there were sound effects, it would be sooo fireee 

Submitted

Really neat concept and loved the visuals!
Like everyone else, the lack of audio is a big bummer! Would've been great to know which of the free tags you get each day were a beginning/middle/ender of your post so I could balance my deck a little bit better. The combinations of silly posts are really charming!

Submitted

Really great visuals! I was a little stumped on how to clear day 1 though. Neither following the trending topic nor diversifying seemed to work? With some balance tuning I could see this being a fun incremental game! In any case well done.
