Hey there! Thanks again for hosting the jam (I really enjoyed your game even if I didn't throw a rating in for obvious bias reasons, since I love a good meditation on loneliness)! I 100% agree on the choices critique. I even ended up dropping it from 4 stories/events to 3 to reduce length and complexity. My original plan was to have all the colors listed out and let people cycle through matching up emotions/images to their chosen colors to give people more focused choices, and then let them select three or four colors + emotions for each story.
Unfortunately I figured out how to do that on the last day and did not have time to go back and edit the prior two passages. I think that's how it always goes!
But: I'm so glad you enjoyed the prose! My fiction background shows here, and I was so excited for the theme. Pretty much everything I write is kind of about traveling, so it just fit with what I like to write up.
