Democracy - SIM Game of the year 2005
Woohoo:

That might help sell a few more copies maybe? I spent a while last night emailing British politicians with good websites (who looked young enough to be potential gamers) asking them if they wanted a free copy of the game. Of course, the problem with this is that it's 99% useless. You have to keep hoping for that 1% who reply and make it all worthwhile.
I also started advertising on a blog for the first time, just a trial with a few dollars. I have no idea how that will work out.
Plus I added 3 more dilemmas to the game, CorporateManslaughter, Alaska Oil Drilling and Torture Deportation. I had planned to wait until I had a lot more dilemmas, but I just have not had the time.
I'm torn between moving on (post 3rd party game) to my biz sim, or maybe spending a week or so improving Democracy. It's quite a tough game to fiddle with without breaking the whole balance of things though... I've also thought a bit about Starship Tycoon 2 again...
