Ok I enjoyed this, though it seems the winning strategy is to kill everyone who is unemployed right at the beginning. XD
Also, if you were to update this I would make the line disappear if you shoot someone, add medicine into the ration mix and maybe allow the player to buy a number of rations at the current price before the price goes up?
I think there should be a "be attentive" option for e.g. when a young child you know has stolen before shows up (so if they try to steal again, you catch them and take back what they've stolen, so they'll be less likely to try again).
Really nice game, only problem is that, while at the beginning you try to help everyone and feel bad when people die, you soon enough stop caring and simply feed those that really need it, and shoot those that complain.
lol same that's what i do everytime... except for the fact that i try to help everyone... i shoot everyone until there's no one left and only survive 2 days.
Very profound and thought provoking. Poses interesting ethical questions. Got a bit repetitive when most of the pop died on my first playthrough, though. Overall, a great game.
I have this weird glitch where when i try to start a new game it just continues from day 26 and so on and it says (no one came in line today) and then ends the day.
I made it with two people, Randy the child and Lorene the farmer, but the game says the population was 1. Also, trying to replay just continues on from the end of the game. Might want to consider fixing that.

just shoot the child
lol
I survived with 3 people
cuba sim
I won with 1 person XD
i wonder what happens if i kill everyone...
Failed at day 11 first try, but second try I won with only having 4 people left. This is a good game.

i killed all the kids
the funny thing is, all they do is eat, so it's usefull to kill all the unemployyed and kids first
Needs a way to deal with illness. I had a good groove with 7 left including 3 farmers, but illness whittled me down to just 3 survivors. Much sad.
this reminds me quite a bit of papers pleas
love it
I don’t know what is going on.
i dont know how but i survived with 1 person and 0 rations
Children remaining: 0
Compelling concept.
I found that the best strategy is to kill everyone in line at first and give rations to whoever is left. It's better than 0 and 1

a quick guide on the peoples jobs and age (and what dialogue means what)
Jobs
farmers- produces the rations
soldiers- help prevent people dying from violence
workers- gives credit
merchant- usually gives more credit then the workers BUT is very dependent on the population
unemployed, student, and children- don't appear to do much
Age
It seems that the elderly are more likely to die of illness. other than that there doesn't appear to be any other significance
dialog
if they mumble, mutter, yell, demand, or threaten- either credits or rations will be stolen
If they state they're hungry, starving, or "can't go on much longer"- they will most likely die due to starvation
any other dialog means that they will most likely not do anything and will probably survive another day without rations
hope this helps you all and if I got anything wrong please do tell me and I'll correct it ^v^
tysm
with the death of flash theres so many games i'll never get to play :(
i killed all then made a child stave for 25 days
I've implemented a new strategy: Kill all but 1. Give the 1 the ration for the next 25 days.
Edit: To prevent guilt don't even look at them. Just press the gun button.
Edit: Make sure they don't die though.
I shot everyone except for a farmer,(P.S. All young people, but no children.) a merchant, a worker, and a soilderl.
They can also die of illness... don't keep people who are older alive, they get illness quickly, and the children should die too.
You know, now that I read this, it sounds really messed up '-w-
Survived with 4 people and 82 rations
i shot everyone as if i were in a school
Uhhhh.....
Survived with 3 people lol
Good Game
Not the best game but it is good for making time pass
this game is so easy. you just kill everyone and hoard the rations for yourself
9/10 has a little something for everyone
exactly what i did
Hey there! Nice game! I'm in <3 with the graphics!
I have this weird glitch where when i try to start a new game it just continues from day 26 and so on and it says (no one came in line today) and then ends the day.
just delete the tab and reopen
I like this game. Was it inspired by Papers, Please?
I killed everyone except one guy and I gave him all the rations and I survived :D

I survived with 2 people and they didn't show up in the pop list so i'll assume they were babies
OK, now the game is moving towards Day 26... that's just ugh
Made it with 5 people. Great game.
Used notes on my phone to keep track of who robbed me and shot them next time I saw them
