This is an artsy fartsy game that didn't go as well I wanted it to. But that being said. The idea underneath seems interesting.

You play as a guy who's losing his soul. In order to retreive it from damnation you must kill unjust people and keep the just alive. You have 10 seconds to make your decision.

Barely enough time to read the bio to even make a decision.

I killed Phil Fish but only because I started laughing the second I saw his name. I think this is a pretty interesting entry, I like that the text taking a while to fully load is intentional and done to see if people will impulsively hit 'kill' the second they see rape/murder/etc. Well I hope it was intentional :p

For an artistic statement, this is pretty cool :)

Don't be so self-deprecating - I think in general you achieved what you wanted. Great example of how games don't have to be fun to be interesting.

To critique: a time limit of 15-20 seconds might have been better if you weren't constrained by the theme. The scrolling text is annoying because it's difficult to read before the entire line is done - a typing animation would be better. Also, I never pressed the button, but the game still scolded me at the end.

Points don't reset after restarting the game! Scrolling text was a little bit annoying
Other than that, not bad! I like the idea :) Could've done with a 'dont kill' button aswell!

This one made me smile :D
Great concept, stressful, you're forced to read quickly, a cool game! I'll love to see a final version.
