I finally finished To agree or disagree, I didn't place at finals, so I'm going to try again next year. Let me know what you think of it :]

I just replayed it and I still like it, I also read your postmortem. I also thought this year’s game topic of choice was quite hard, last year’s was just a game about FBLA then this year moral challenges, but besides that I agree on most of your points of the rubric being a little weird, especially the “Game includes an operating multi-player function”. Game good, endings Funny, emoticons :)

I actually just sent in an email to the organizer of competitive events, Jen Staley, about some changes I think should be made. Also thank you for reading my postmortem, I know it was kind of long, but I had a lot to say and it felt good to let go of the game.

I just uploaded a new version of To agree or disagree. If you have the time I'd love to hear any feedback you might have :)
