We used Tabletop Simulator for laying out the game, and 3D board-game assets. But all other 2D art and cards were on us!
Did you choose from one (or more) of the optional secondary themes?
Love

Phenomenal character art? check. Straight forward and whimsical premise? check. Fully detailed rules document with "keywords" section? check! Host of simple yet nuanced mechanics? check!! And to bring it all together, there's the Tabletop Simulator mod with every component ready to play! CHECK!
This physical game really came in with all cylinders firing. On components alone this game made me laugh (I almost want the "punch up/down" cards to be remain as they are!)
My only concern during gameplay was the tracking of events: when new guests were to arrive and in what order, which counter to remove, move, or add to which board.
Could just be first playthrough-type issues, so if I have a good clarifying question, I'll be sure to ask before next playing! Til then, awesome!!
Thanks so much for playing! Really appreciate you taking the time to comment. We'll be updating the TTS mod in future to hopefully make things simpler (and better explained). All feedback is welcome, so please feel free to come back with any questions.
I love the visuals here, really wish I could play it.
Really neat that you can play this game in tabletop sim too. I had no idea you could create custom games with it.
I hope to play it someday!
A very interesting take on the tabletop game! I wonder why some of the cards in Player Cards, Item Cards & Maladies.pdf are of such a different style! :^) I suppose these were the “first versions” that were later re-drawn into more intricate versions as the setting and the rules were set. Unfortunately I have no experience with the table top simulator and mods, and no suitable friends to play with, so I can’t fully appreciate your work. But just looking and reading about it I have an impression of a very well-maid game with detailed mechanics. Thank you for this experience!
Hi, Jana here!
Yes haha you're right on the mark, the other artstyle is the gamedesigner's (Ben) haha, used as placeholder art to be replaced in the future !
For the jams, its quite an undertaking doing over 100 card art haha, so I just did what I could for the time alotted for the game jam ^.^
Thank you for having a look though, very appreciated!
