Not a Dog Opens Steam Page for Happy Propaganda, Launching October 28
The store page plus a dated release window turns an announced premise into a fixed October slot, and the censoring loop ties the game's mechanics directly to the comment moderation it is about.

Not a Dog has opened the Steam store page for Happy Propaganda, an adventure game releasing October 28 for Windows and Mac. The player is a broadcast supervisor in a fictional communist state, running a state-run live broadcast for five days. The player approves or censors viewer comments and picks each day's topics, with multiple endings. Off-air talks with a rookie newscaster affect the ending.
The store page confirms Windows and Mac, with the release set for October 28. In the game, the player runs the state-run broadcast across five days: comments arrive during the broadcast, and each one is approved or deleted. Deleting raises viewers' discontent; letting a comment through can hurt the newscaster.
Each day also asks for a choice of topics to cover. Those decisions stack, and the final day resolves into one of several endings depending on what the player chose. A rookie newscaster fronts the broadcast, and the player can talk with them off-air. How those conversations go shapes the relationship and, per the store page, the ending.
