Everything Goes Post
You are a news reporter in a small town where nothing happens so every day you have to ask yourself "What Can Go Wrong?" in order to come up with click bate articles.
Simply pick a subject and an action to write a unique headline (remember the more ridiculous your title is the more clicks it will gain, BUT the less believable it is the less reposts it will generate). Either stay balanced or go crazy, it's your choice. You'll see how well each of your titles did by the end of the game.
Good luck.

I really like the art style and the music choice. The theme is also funny and I think that it fits the theme of the game jam well.
It was hard to notice the publish button, and I think that the game would be better without it, it feels more intuitive to click a a genre and an action and that's it.
Overall, great idea, unique concept, very good art.
Thanks for playing and for the feedback! I'll fix those issues when the jam's over.
I really like the concept and thought that the clickbait headlines were really funny and well written. The art and music are also really nice and do a great job of selling the theme of the game. I agree with some of the other comments here that the controls were somewhat problematic. The timer was very short, and I had trouble telling when I could and could not publish another title. Also, I felt inclined to read the headlines as soon as I submitted them rather than waiting for the end compilation, but that ended up being the wrong way to play as the timer doesn't stop when you submit one. Perhaps having the timer stop and all the possible subjects and actions hidden while you have some time to read would have been a nice UI change. Really unique game!
First of all thank you for playing! Also thanks for the good kind of feedback, I see how the game could be improved.
creative idea and the design is great :)
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
I don't know why, but I can't select subjects and actions. But art looks good
That might be because you don't hit publish after clicking on subject and then on action, or you don't do it all on time, you have only 5 seconds to choose both and hit publish (by clicking the big "publish" button or by pressing "space").
Ok, I see but it's still very janky and doesn't work intuitively half the time
Notes taken, thanks!
I really like the style of it, i think it looks amazing. However, it's a bit boring.
Thanks for the feedback. The main and only mechanic here is to come up with clickbates and do it quickly, the fun part is supposed to be reading the absurd titles you came up with in a hurry. I can see how that's not for everyone. Thanks for complementing on the visuals!
