Deliviously grim at the end which could have perhaps landed a little harder if the characters had more room to develop. Of course that's always a challenge with these super short stories. Good job, very enjoyable to read!

You managed to cram a whole lot of grimdark tone into this story. Well done! I really like stories about the average guys in universes filled with hyper-advanced robots and aliens.

Good job. I think with another 500 words, this could have been a lot better. IMO (take that with a grain of salt), the ending is a little too chaotic. There's not enough description of what is happening and where. The downside of a tight word limit. Still a good read, nonetheless. HDF needs more love. 

I liked this submission. The clarity and flow was a little hard to understand at points, but I have a fondness for the characterization. I hope to see how you progress next jam!

Good flow and well paced action. I want to know what happens. 

Freaking great short. I'm usually a huge cynic for any "generic guard doing war" stories because of how easy it is to write meaningless action words but this character has some actual motivation behind them- actual consequences living or dying.
