Is it an actual working prototype or just a concept at the moment? I'd play it. It's a semi-working prototype. Immigration doesn't currently work, and all funding does is mess with approval rating, and debt. Right now, working on an impeachment part of the game, in which you go to the Senate, and convince them to not impeach you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If I'm not mistaken (And I'm not, I have credibility on this issue look at my profile pic), that is not Prime Minister Mulroney, but rather Rev. Jerry Falwell of Lynchburg, Virginia.

ThePotatoWalrus 471 Posted January 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 @vcczar Earlier you said you would be able to write out every non-computer science-related aspect for a Political Sim. If you would be interested, you could help with mine. Right now I'm in the concept stage so there isn't much I have for you to help with at the moment, but I'm working on different policies (which will have sub-policies) I want you to help me come up with more buttons if you want to. Here's what I have so far. You can either come up with more buttons, sub-policies, or whatever. Policy ButtonsEconomy & Taxes (Though I am thinking of separating the two, tell me if you think they should be separate or the same) Description: Allows you to view debt, inflation, currency, GDP, unemployment, change interest rates, and will allow you to adjust taxes. Healthcare Description: Allows you to create your own Healthcare plan. This would be done at a later time so don't worry about it now. Also allows you to set abortion laws as well. Military Description: Allows you to direct the military, along with setting budgets, choosing different weapons for them to use, and amount of troops. Immigration Description: Allows you to set education, wealth quotas for immigrants, along with annual amounts. Social Security Description: Allows you to adjust pensions, etc. haven't really thought much into this policy. Extra policies would be appreciated Other ButtonsElections & Campaigns Description: Allows you to view election results from the past, polls for the next election. and allows you to do basic campaign functions. Note that I am only making a prototype so when I do come out with an actual release don't expect for all of the sub-features to be added. @Reagan04, you can help too if you want, so I have people on both sides.

I'll be able to come up with policy ideas when I get a rundown of what you are trying to do and what the objective of the game is. I could probably give dozens of policy ideas, that's not that difficult. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That angered me. But, now that I am no longer a grade 10 English student, and have not been for almost 25 years, and have written fiction that many have said should be published and is comparable to published material (but getting published for the first time is NOT easy at all), I consider myself to have transcended my old English teacher's proclaimed limits.
