The game&#8217;s creator, Jakub Kasztalski, has shared the following in a press release:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201c<em>Headliner: NoviNews<\/em> tackles one of today\u2019s most pertinent issues: the mass distribution of information. We\u2019re constantly being fed conflicting realities and \u2018alternative facts\u2019 that are making it increasingly hard for us to make sense of the world around us. I wanted to make a game that explores the difficulties in uniting a nation in a world where skepticism and bias have left us increasingly distrustful of everything we hear.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Novi1\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/d5cc2183f8d6d\/novi1.original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/d5cc2183f8d6d\/novi1.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"Novi1\"><\/a><a title=\"Novi2\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/26b33f73c2e9f\/novi2.original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/26b33f73c2e9f\/novi2.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"Novi2\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Novi3\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/b3341ab41392e\/novi3.original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/b3341ab41392e\/novi3.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"Novi3\"><\/a><a title=\"Novi4\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/fa8b066f33fc9\/novi4.original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" width=\"445\" height=\"245\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/fa8b066f33fc9\/novi4.445x245.jpg\" alt=\"Novi4\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>An interesting concept, for sure.
