Wow, you have written so much! It's a nice simplistic game that also teaches some Greek mythology. Maybe some music or tavern ambiance sounds could have made the experience even better. I didn't win the poem contest by the way. Somehow my poem actually got worse at the end even with all the polishing and practicing. Amazing entry for the jam!

Haha yes, I ended up spending a lot of my time in Google Docs for this one, just writing and refining all the different levels of card stories and screenplay stuff 😅 Thank you for the great suggestions and comments! It's interesting about the your experience with the poem getting worse. I wanted there to be a random element to the performances, but some playthroughs I felt that too, where it seemed like it became overly stacked against me. I'll work on the tuning of difficulty for the next version!
Also I'm glad you felt that it can teach some Greek mythology- I wanted there to be a bit of real educational value in there behind the comedy and gameplay!
