❤ Game Overview

This short, hilarious interactive fiction game drops players into the role of a space judge managing explosive interspecies conflicts during a single chaotic work week.

❤ Gameplay Mechanics

Players navigate branching narratives by selecting dialogue options that dramatically reshape diplomatic outcomes. Unlike traditional visual novels, each choice creates tangible narrative consequences, with players potentially preventing or instigating galactic wars through careful diplomacy.

❤ Character Interactions

Players engage with memorably bizarre alien species: Bloons (manipulative crimson blob-like diplomats), Emps (sensitive feline-insectoid hybrid bureaucrats), Floaps (demanding gelatinous blue negotiators), Porc (well-meaning but intellectually challenged representatives), and Melissa (a sentient, world-destroying missile with attitude).

❤ Narrative Approach

The experience distinguishes itself through satirical diplomatic scenarios grounded in recognizable human conflicts, razor-sharp and unexpected comedic writing, deeply individualized character personalities, and intelligent parody of sci-fi tropes.

❤ Player Experience Highlights

The game offers an extraordinarily replayable narrative structure with laugh-out-loud dialogue sequences, a compact and satisfying gameplay experience, lighthearted storytelling with surprising depth, and charming pixel art character designs.
