@faisal_hassanx Wasn't even aware there was tip functionality, Is it hidden away somewhere?

@faisal_hassanx @pthm_ Not for Uber. By choice. If drivers receive tips at all, they're cash. Lyft encourages tipping in their app though.

This is great thought provoking game. Tempts me to build a larger version with larger branching choices such as getting a university degree ie a modern version of Oregon Trail.

This is absolutely one of the coolest things I've ever tried on this site. I absolutely fell in love with graphics and the info at the end (similar decisions, why you guys built this game etc.) made it even better. 5 out of 5. 10 out of 10!
