Only the dark side deal in absolutes.

In real life, there is nuance, and shades of grey.

This is a difficult game

Interesting concept, and the various tradeoffs of the decisions is interesting.

I was kind of middling on this game until the judging at the end. And then I was like "whoa! it's tracking all of this??" and got really excited. The problem is, the build up isn't terribly "fun." But super cool concept.

Super well executed and detailed for a weekend jam. I was laughing most of the time. Thanks for making it!

Loved the bit at the ending with the counting numbers.

I really had no way to see if what someone pleaded was correct or not, so my choices felt arbitrary, except for when I let one of them go with a fine so I could buy a jail, that was spot on!

Any chance of a linux build? I'd like to play a game with Star Wars quote in description :D

I too loved the number count at the end - for a laugh I played mister really nice guy and got a score of -1820.

The problem I had with the game was there no way to assess the outcome of my choices - each judgement felt arbritary and had no impact on the next decision.

I didn't quite know what was going on so I just executed everyone.

Hmmm. I guess I was too nice to everyone? Call CSI:Miami!

Interesting game but took time to understand how to play.

Interesting idea! I kind of felt like I was just taking stabs in the dark as to how to judge people (though I totally took the rich guy's fine to add to the village coffers). This concept could be expanded into a very interesting game though!

Really neat concept. It's like a judge, jury, jail simulator. I think with a better user interface and some polish this game could go far.
