I'm having trouble getting the insanity ending. The walkthrough is a bit confusing on the goose migration part. Whenever I try to do something, even following the walkthrough to a T, I keep getting the revolution ending.
CANT PLAY NOTHING SHOWS UP. right after the tutorial level its just blank, the only thing i can do is click submit and it just keeps asking what picture to draw.
I really want to play this, but I just keep getting this error:
Unable to parse Build/ContrarianPress_WebGL.framework.js.gz! This can happen if build compression was enabled but web server hosting the content was misconfigured to not serve the file with HTTP Response Header "Content-Encoding: gzip" present. Check browser Console and Devtools Network tab to debug.
I like the game in a way that's difficult to describe in text, so I'll just skip to the bit where I nitpick something that I hope the Steam release does better.
Specifically, the thing where hitting the Submit button scrolls away from the sub-headline text and image as they're being added. It would be one thing if you could look at the newspaper as a whole after finishing, but you don't. Blink and you miss it, stare and you still miss most of it. Which is a shame, because the glimpses I saw often seemed funny!
Actually, when you submit a headline, the game normally lets you view the sub-headline and image for as long as you'd like until you click again. Something is probably going wrong on your end.
Great concept, very clever and original, and the soundtrack absolutely makes the game. There are some variations that could be added to the options for some of the titles, but overall hilarious and great concept.
It didn't like "Governor assassinated after stealing hotdogs from party" Why did you not think of that? though I'm glad it did count scientists are growing.
Interesting game idea but a bit difficult to play. Personally, I think it would be better if players could only cross out 1 continuous piece. More strict forward gameplay.
Phenomenal idea that could be grown in to a game the likes of Death and Taxes. Would need to be less precise about wording in a full version. I.E. currently "scientists grow bird population" doesn't work, but "scientists grow geese" does.
I really love the idea and style/vibes of the game. And the song mixed with the typewritter was great. The gameplay is great though I personally found it to be very hard/confusing. And I wish I could go again when getting something incorrect instead of having to keep going and restart later. And It took me a while to figure out you could make one line censored not just one word.
The aesthetics of this are on point! I love the vibe of this experience and the rewards of new collages was good incentive, it's a little hard to tell how many words I can censor for each puzzle, but overall a fun idea!
This is an excellent game! The graphics are great, and the music (kinda sounds like Papers, Please) is also on point. It even shows how the press can easily be manipulated by taking things out of context. I hope this gets made into a full game.

I did everything in the walkthrough, but I cant get the insanity ending
Absolutely amazing, I would love a longer version!
also i cant get the insanity ending even though i did all the prerequisites
anti-child newspaper.
good game
This is such a cool concept and executed really well! I was chuckling all the way through.
Really fun game, i enjoyed it much!
Played it a couple of times to see different outcomes of the different news, and the different endings. A very fun game with a good idea.
Really fun idea, id love a longer game with more headlines to censor, I enjoyed trying to find the silliest headline possible
"Scientists are growing"
"Hmm... that's such a news!"
"Should we be concerned?"
"No worries, let them grow, it's good for our country."
"Okay."
I loved this game, and it's really funny, so kudos (it's the 2nd game featured)
I love this game, please make more.
when i follow the insanity ending, i dont see one about media opinion
The walkthrough is likely outdated.
i can't get hired ):
Cross out all text except for "You're" and "hired"

That was an issue only in the downloadable version of the game. It should be fixed now.
Love this game. Some of the things you could get are too funny! "Minster Louise Aiming to Reduce Children" is wild
A really ---- game
This game was absolutely fantastic, I'm so glad I stumbled across this page.
somehow "General Morgan's City, killed thousands with poison gas" counted as the decisive victory for Chairman Dozyle
and "Scientists are growing Bird, Geese population likely at fault" just triggered the "what" thing
anyone know the solution to the 1st im extremely dumb
You're hired
thanks
i can't press submit on the on about the guy getting executed for revolution
Did you censor the right words?
what dies that mean
Edit the headline like this:
i didn't get that one this time i played, but i did before
Is it this one you got earlier?
kinda sad that it didn't count 'Bird Cut In Half'
Or “Scientists are growing, bird population likely at fault”
Awesome that “Scientists are Geese” worked, though.
Or "thousands with poison gas"
"Thousands with gas" would be hilarious.
or "General killed gas"
truly a game

Hmmm, strange. We will be posting a desktop build soon, hopefully that will help.

i'm surprised they missed "scientists likely at fault"
"They should be sitting on the edges of tectonic plates but we aren't quite sure"
great and unique concept. i really can't wait for the full release.

All the seeds of an amazing game are here. I'm very happy to hear that this is going to be expanded into a full release!
Amazing. Hilarious goddamn game. I can believe "Scientists are growing" and "Minister Louise EATS CHILDREN" were actually options.
Phenomenal idea that could be grown in to a game the likes of Death and Taxes.
Would need to be less precise about wording in a full version. I.E. currently "scientists grow bird population" doesn't work, but "scientists grow geese" does.
Is there a secret ending? I couldn't do the last one
check the walkthrough in the description if you are ever stuck for the last one
I really like the music and the game is a very unique way to interpret the theme
Enjoyed the style especially loved the one-page camera panning view, and the gameplay was very clever and fun.

This will be a winner for sure. I can already tell
