Fantastic idea of "music dictates settings/narrative", especially with the overarching tie of reminiscing with friends.

Oh this is delightful! Music plays a big part in my memories, good bad and everything in between. This is a fantastic way to encapsulate it!

Great ideas here! I enjoyed reading it. 

I could also see myself using this in an existing campaign for another game as a way to establish relationship backgrounds.

This reminds me of when I was younger (around 10-11 years old) I used to listen to music in my driveway with my best friend and we would make up scenes from it. I really like the idea of a reminiscing theme in which connections to music bring about the dialog. It's a cool improv exercise and a nice way to experience new music and different sides of people I know.

This is fantastic, birb nerb! And I love that you made it for a Clawhammer jam, I did one of those and had a blast, and not only does the game fit super well with music, it fits perfectly for "REVERSE" as well! 

I'm ALL FOR having excuses to check out new music and share what music I like, as well as explore music I never would've considered listening to. And lyrics are one of the main reasons I listen to music (okay so there are only like a handful of reasons people listen to music but you know what I mean), so that works excellently here too! 

Thanks so much for entering the game into the jam, I'm excited to try this out! :D

this was one of the reasons i felt compelled to join this game jam, because it's so lovely that music itself can be used in the mechanics of a game! i hope i get to try this out soon. thank you for making this <3
