To boil things down, Is the President a Traitor is a fairly solid resource management game wrapped up in a narrative of Treason, spycraft, corruption and intrigue.

Diving into it, it took a bit of time (and a lot of failures) to wrap my head around how the resources correlated and played with each other, but once I did I was able to successfully discover the foreign agents, co-conspirators and get enough vote to trigger an Impeachment of the president. The impeachment itself wasn't successful, but it was fun getting there.

Cosmetically, everything is random. Genders and names are made up, but there will always be a set amount of foreign agents and co-conspirators for you to find and leverage for intel to impeach. There is no political leaning here to imply that current or past administrations are who the game is based on, just that all of the actions in the game HAVE occurred at some point in the past.

As other reviews have said, the music can be a little repetitive at times, but can be muted if it isn't to your liking.

Overall a fun game, and a good first entry for a budding studio.

Game breaking progression bugs - twice in the first 5 hours of play causing me to restart the game from a previous save (which unfortuantely lost me quite a bit of progress).

Very tight controls, excellent level design, beautiful art and music and a story that's quality. Highly recommend.

Took a little getting used to at first, but within the first half hour I'm hooked. Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of space combat.
