... a fantasticly sarcastic satire regarding the recent 'war' between Israel and Hamas. I hope that people realize the satirical edge behind this game though. Allow me to detail me review:
- Graphics were simple, but effective. The style was neat and polished, but lacked details. The animation, although sparse, was adequate too. I was disapointed, however, that you opted not to demonstrate the violence of the conflict in a more graphic manner, although I understand this omition if your intention was either to get this game out quickly and/or if you wanted to reach a larger audience.
- The music was subtle, but highly effective and spot on, adding to the sarcasitc bite of the game by being smooth and relaxing. The sound effects were slightly annoying and repetitive though.
- Gameplay was ridiculously easy, of course, but really hit the mark because of this. I loved the headquarters building, by the way!
- The political message is one I agree with completly. I support the existance of the state of Israel and some of my best friends are Jewish, whom I deeply care for, but the facts are as clear as you put them: over 20 dead palestianians for every jew in the previous conflict; in the on-going one, it's even worst (currently there are near 400 dead palestinians for less than 10 dead israelis).
Hopefully, the satirical edge of this game is suficient that people will notice this message (this is the internet, after all).
So, overall, a correct political message delivered via a highly effective game with a heavy satirical edge, but lacking slightly in the graphics deparment (including the lack of more explicit violence). I sincerely hope this gets the front page and that it received more widespread attention, it deserves it. Kudos for making this flash.
