A downloadable game

A simple game in which you are in role of a journalist who is met with various hoaxes during his career.


Instructions:

On the bottom of the screen you always have a choice of 2 or 3 articles with different headlines. Based on the text above those articles (in the middle of the screen), which tells you piece of information currently trending, you have to make a choice. Each article represents a different choice.


On top of the screen there is a bar with 4 images.

  1. Finances
  2. Popularity
  3. Chaos
  4. Doubt

These 4 attributes fill or deplete based on the choices that you make. By hovering over each article, these icons either:

  1.  Stay the same - the attribute will not fill or deplete upon picking that choice
  2. Grow a bit - The attribute will fill or deplete a little bit
  3. Grow a lot - The attribute will fill or deplete significantly

Whenever you completely fill or deplete one of these attributes, the game gives you a bad ending. Being able to balance through the attributes through all articles without failing will give you a good ending. But can you achieve that ? :)
