Beautiful! I haven't had the time to play it much yet but I really want to give it more time!!! Love how it's written. The illustrations are really nice. Reminds me of a somewhat mechanically simpler Thousands Years Old Vampire, which is never a bad thing. Really tickles some fantasies of mine, wonderful work! It's mechanically simple but pretty elegant and smart in its design. Some suggestions are rather intriguing, like ticking progress boxes on parts and drawing them on post-it notes to assemble the final mech using them, I really like the physicality of that idea. The illustrations are really nice. I think I'd enjoy a layout that's been a little prettified, but that's quite ok given the short production time of the jam. As it is, it's simple and functional. Excellent job!

In love with the optional with-jokers instructions: If I draw a joker, it becomes a timer with an uncertain length, but because I know whether it'll be a good or bad outcome, I can use that last bit of time to set up the ending, the tragic but inevitable downfall or the win against all odds. I've played The Quiet Year a few times, and I feel like my weakness as a player is that I can't just decide then and there if the whole thing turned out good or bad. So I saw this joker option and chose with no hesitation to live in a society. The setup questions have so many suggestions that are unexpected and exciting, the prompts in construction are varied, and the journey section was personally moving. Loved the experience.
