About – Thin Judgment

You're working at a conveyor belt. Many things appear on the line. Ranging from spare change and suspiciously clean food, to gold bars and sentient little-paper-people that have a tendency to explode. Try not to die; don't be killed, and don't forget to eat.

The Conveyor

Earn your wage by collecting spare change or collecting paper people with your tube. Feel free to analyze and prejudice which paper people you collect, as each of them has their own social status and gender. There are over 50 different social statuses and text-based events may occur based on the balance/imbalance of roles and genders. There are some malicious roles as well, so be careful not to let destabilizing people join your perfect little-paper-society.

Earn resources by collecting gold bars or letting the paper beings endure a slow and agonizing death in the furnace that's at the end of the conveyor belt. Letting paper people die doesn't have any considerable implication – except for their eventual retaliation against you – but letting gold bars go into the furnace will make your employers very upset with you. Unless you collect those gold bars, you won't be employed to anybody for very long.

The Experiments

When you want to divert from the typical conveyor belt mayhem, then switch over to one of the 3 experiment minigames. You need paper people to experiment on, so collecting enough at the conveyor belt is necessary.

- Ground Race
Great for watching the paper people stumble and fall on their face. Control one of the 4 paper people and get to the end first. Avoid obstacles by jumping and moving.

- Rock Climbing
Stop the paper people from climbing to the top. Knock off all but the golden paper people, as the golden ones fall up and are harmless if just climbing.

- Tube Operator
Switch tubes on and off to prevent them from overheating as paper people travel through them.

Uploaded Version 1.2.

  • Improved graphical performance.
  • Fixed some bugs.
  • Added particle effects to the ground race obstacles.
  • Adjusted default difficulty to be easier.

Uploaded Version 1.1. This should fix the more major issues, but I still have some to deal with, unfortunately.

These fixes should include these:

  • Tried optimizing a little bit. More can probably be done to improve performance, so I'll get around to that soon.
  • Saves shouldn't cause more issues. Turns out the notes would try to save a variable that isn't capable of being saved.
  • Still no idea as to why changing the window mode makes lighting go dark, but lighting will update more often for now.

Apologies if anybody runs into bugs! I'll try to fix them ASAP and upload it as Version 1.1.

I'm aware of a few so far. Please tell me if you find one not on this list:

  • Fullscreen mode seems to lag, but switching to windowed mode fixes itself.
  • After saving a few times it doesn't seem to save anymore, and starting the round is impossible unless starting a new game.
  • Lighting tends to become dark when changing the window mode in the options.
  • Paper people rarely will not be affected by the conveyor belt unless nudged with the tube.
