This was a cool idea. The world setup with intriguing and feels like something you could play around with more. The reminder that those back home can help with the war even if they aren't actively in combat was nice. I loved the shoulder dragon. It was a great bit of world building. It feels like you could add more to this, more materials to spin from, more news reports, and such, if you wanted to continue building this out.
The mechanics were a little confusing. The directions say to press and hold Space, but I found that I had to keep pressing Space to keep the wheel spinning. Playing around with it, I think I was suppose to press and hold Space to give the wool a twist, then press and hold again for each additional twitch I wanted to give the wool, but it wasn't super clear. The way you were suppose to work with the hand was also not very clear. At first I held it and moved it back and forth, but it wasn't adding the thread to the bobbin. It took me a bit to realize I was suppose to click and hold, move it to the bobbin, and then let go of the mouse to wind it. I think having clearer instructions would really help.
