A very, very sweet game which I really enjoyed play-testing. It brought back fond, fond memories of listening to my own elders, and I had fun matching the prompts I was getting with relevant anecdotes from my own family history. I also REALLY liked the layout!

Thank you! I always end up spending most of the very limited time trying to find an idea I am happy to bring into the world when it comes to Ludum Dare/Praxi. So I am left to scramble in the last hours to bring it into existence in time. Thanks for playtesting and sharing your thoughts, they're greatly appreciated.
Silly side note, I actually made the zine twice and made Beth pick which layout she preferred because I couldn't decide. The other was much more photo collage heavy, and I think she made the right choice. On later observation this one feels cozier.
Here's a peak of what could have been if left to my original path. lol

You're welcome! I think you did great, it sounds like you were a bit pressed for time but this doesn't feel rushed at all.
I do like the other layout but it feels more "historical" and less "cozy" (and everyone knows that memories aren't always true to life anyway...) so I'm glad you followed Beth's idea.
