Love the writing, art, and concept. Has a Bradbury vibe to it, I feel? The inclusion of burning the system itself really works for me, great work!

Oh wow, thanks, Asparagus! I'll take a Bradbury vibe, haha. So glad you like it! πŸ”₯✨

This game hits so hard! The design is concise and the concept comes through really clearly. You did a great job with the rolltables, especially for "The Scream" - so many good words and possibilities! Looking forward to playing this when I have safe access to fire!!

Developer

Goodness, thanks so much! πŸ”₯🌌 I'm really glad!

I haven't gotten the chance to gather people together yet and burn a map, but I love the concept of this game and I'm looking forward to trying to play it when I can do so safely!  The design is gorgeous.

Ahhhh, thanks so much--both for the comment and for organizing this event in the first place!!! I hope y'all find some time to (safely) burn some paper / galaxies. πŸŒŒπŸ”₯ Cheers! πŸ’–

Oooohhhhhh I did the predictive text thing and got: The sun exploded and "then I got to see you." That's pretty freaking epic, I'll take it!

Also, this is so cool! You did an amazing job with the polish on it, that's the first thing that sticks out for sure. This looks like something you took weeks on! But beyond that, everything about it is awesome: the concept of literally burning the paper, getting a final message out before the sun eradicates everything, the prompts (especially the Transmitter page where you answer why you're there and such).

You have such a way with succinctness that punctuates emotion and humor, and you do it with such skill that it's one of those, "Okay I'm jealous af but in the 'I'm super happy for you' way" 🀣 Like "I'm inspired to take this challenge on myself and try to get good at it too." From the length of this reply alone you probably know I'm anything but succinct 🀣 

Seriously though, this is amazing and certainly not something I ever would've guessed was done in a week, it's epic af!

!!!! Holy heck, thank you so much ! πŸ˜­ For what it's worth, I am usually terrible with concision, so honestly was grateful for the very limited timeline! Y'all's work is amazing, so this means really means a lot!! πŸ’–

Oh my goodness, this has got to be the most amazing comment I've ever seen: not only does it come from someone whose game was amazing and I told other people about because that mechanic is so amazing and the polish is so incredible, but you think our work is amazing too?!?! 🧑 Thank you!!!

And lol, this was clearly a great exercise in concision for you because it turned out spectacularly
