WARNING : The sound is often FUBAR when played in browser, playing the first chord of the background track over and over again. Either mute your speakers or play the downloaded version.

A short clicker/incremental game made for "Clicker Jam Spring 2023", inspired by "Will of the People".

Expect to spend between five and thirty minutes total on the game.

Programmed in LÖVE2d.  

The music used, "In Istanbul, on Bosphorus", was written and performed by Haris Abdagic and released without copyright.  Check out his copyrighted and copyright free work on Bandcamp - he has some good stuff out there, worth throwing a few bucks at him.

CONTROLS :
Left Click - Use your influence to shift society more left/right
Escape Key - Quit
Mouse Movement, Space Bar, Right Click - Can be unlocked via upgrades. A notification will explain the context of their use once they become available.

If you're into tabletop roleplaying, most of my itch entries are supplements and scenarios for Indie RPGs, mostly for the excellent FIST TTRPG.  I'm particularly proud of The Claudia Contingency.

Yo! Glad I could inspire! Found all the endings, very cool. I enjoyed the multitasking mechanics, took a lot of focus to do much of anything. :)

Great job! :D
