The Great Space Race

Edit: We came 3rd! Thank you so much to everyone who voted! ❤

See how it was made in our Devlogs here! 

The Great Space Race is a game about diplomacy...and space!

It's 1957 and the Soviet Union has just launched the first satellite into space. The Space Race has begun! You have until 1970 to get a man on the moon. But that's if the American people don't riot, or all out nuclear war doesn't happen first.

FEATURES:

• Make impactful choices to balance the people's happiness, space funding and military force, whilst avoiding nuclear war
• Hella cool presidential portraits!
• Over 30 newspapers between years that change to reflect your choices
• A super tempting lunch button!
• 6 different endings - which ones will you get?
• An advisor with sass. Never have a boring year again.

STUCK?

Here's a walkthrough for the different endings!
