Thank you for the incredibly thoughtful review! I'm glad that some of my more ambitious or weird changes struck a chord with you. If you ever get a chance to play it I'd love to hear how it goes.
You bring up a lot of great points and inconsistencies! I'll do a thorough scan and make sure that plugged some of these holes. I might have missed a few things in order to get this out in my deadline 😅!
I will respond to a few of your points here:
- I must have removed my starting debt step for creating a new character! Whoopsie. Characters are meant to start with 7 debt.
- Termination gives "points" equal to the dots on the square, 1 - 2 - 3 points.
- I included the easy resurrection as a semi-comedic option, also hopefully to off-set the low lifespan of the characters. I'm very open to making it a more interesting choice! 1 permanent stress might not mean all that much.
- Assignments are supposed to give one "point". That is a mistake on my end!
- Bonuses and "Senior rank" refer to some systems I removed close to release. I'll correct that to "perks".
I'll make sure to make some of those vague rules and edge cases a bit more clear. I really appreciate the feedback!
