Wow, I wasn't expecting it to take such a dark turn! I really enjoyed it

I was going for complicated, so I'm glad to hear it!
In the end, though, I think it just looks complicated. My 6th grade class was able to play completely on their own after playing just one game with me, which really surprised me. Looks like I didn't actually make it complicated enough!
I need to go check your game out now!
Thank you so much! Your comments really meant a lot to me.
And yes, it still lets more than two people play! That was a surprising revelation after trying it out on my 6th grade class, haha. Some of them took sides and tried to help out one of the players, and some tried to help both players out, all of which was fun.
I finished my game! My original idea was to:
1. Make Hangman more complicated for no good reason
2. Nest games of Hangman inside each other, in order to accomplish #1
I completed both of these, but during playtesting I found that the game was actually pretty fun as well! Bonus.
So I hope some of you are able to play it in a family restaurant or a classroom someday.
Edit: I made a video that teaches the rules, since it seemed hard to explain in writing. I recommend learning the game this way.
Thank you SO MUCH for your help!
My question is related to the game industry in general, not this jam in particular, but if you have time I'd appreciate a reply!
There are a lot of game studios in my area. What would you say are the more important things I need to get a job working for one of them? How do I get those things?
