Fun at the beginning, but all you do it seems is direct people to stars faster than your opponent, so I eventually got a bit tired of it. Maybe more things to do would be nice, although I know you probably didn't have time. But it was fun anyway.

I found it nice.

Couldn't control the delivery boys very well. Also, never seemed to be able to make much of a
profit

Intriguing game. I struggled to get the balance between constantly poking at the reporters and setting the other parameters correctly, but it was challenging and quite entertaining.

Impressively complete business management game. The micromanagement got a little dull eventually.

Cool interpretation of the theme and nicely polished. It didn't turn out to be as fun as I initially thought it would -- I think there needed to be a little something to make the micromanagement more entertaining but I'm not quite sure what. For some reason I keep wanting to work Clarke Kent and Superman into the game somehow. :)

It's a bit dull without music but I like the game.

The production was exceptional and game controls and working of the game were very good. It would be a long game to play. Good work! and yeah, relationship with the theme was highly tangential.

I found it a bit hard to control, but otherwise lots of fun. I'd like to have a way to switch between my various employees using the keyboard instead of having to move my mouse around and click, which is slow and error-prone.

Nice take on the theme.

This works - I mean you can run the game. This is a big plus. I know from where you got the graphics - it's average. Gameplay is really boring. you just click on stars and buy new staff.

Good job, you put a lot of thought into the simulation aspects of the game. I like the idea of going around collecting column-inches. Having said that, it was too complicated to wrap my head around. I felt like I spent an awful lot of time moving my reporters around in order to do a little bit of strategizing.

+ good idea
- bad execution, it's confusing

I liked the idea, but it would have been nice if combined with a bit of 4X

IT'S REALLY HARD TO MAKE MONEY!

Kind of innovating.
awsome for a solo entry. Nice work man :)

I love your creative take on the theme. Making a sim-newspaper stand was a great idea. The graphics you used worked well with your game.

Even after reading the complicated instructions, I had a hard time understanding what was going on. My money never seemed to go up or down, and I didn't get the feeling that I was winning OR losing. I think this game needed a few tutorial levels with dumbed-down rules so that players can get the hang of it one step at a time.

Nice game, I will probably play it now and then.

I couldn't find how to exit the level designer.

When reading your diary's I thought it sounded like such a good game, and it has got masses of potential. Whether pyweek gave you time to fill out that potential I don't know. I do feel this could make a good phone game, however.

I'll focus on the good points :)

-> Very nice graphics
-> You managed to implement an AI that (annoyingly) beats me to news
-> It was very innovative

Hope to see you next time :)
