How does your game fit the theme?
The miles countdown as you get towards the sea and the headcount goes down as you lose personnel. Whichever gets to zero first give you your ending.

actually liked ts despite it not being of a genre i enjoy, i like the way you make decisions difficult and actually effect the run :D
Thanks! Honestly, balancing each option so they felt like the mattered but weren't game breaking took a surprising amount of play testing haha. I'm glad you liked it!
So beautiful, so much drama and so much emotion. Your writting is great!
Thanks so much!
This was really good. I love the gods aspect. Really adds some depth and even hard decisions. Way better than dying to dysentery lol
I spent all my money on medicine, set the pace to “grueling” every day, refused the gods at every turn, and almost made it lol
Haha that's awesome. Glad you liked it!
This game is actually cool! But unfortunately i had some issues with the audio. I liked the idea and the gameplay overall though. There were various options to choose which makes the game complex in a good way.
Sorry about the audio! What did you play it on?
I played it on the web browser, on my pc. I feel like the sound gets significantly distorted especially when i play the game in full screen mode. However, i didn't experience this when doing the same thing on my phone.
What browser? I only tested it on chrome
On google chrome
Huh, well, sorry bout that! Game jam life haha. Thanks again for playing! I'll investigate some post game jam and see if I can learn more for next time
The atmosphere is spot on thanks to the pretty art and clean UI. Reminds me of Sunless Seas. It is like a story generator, which is impressive since it is a game jam game. Good writing.
Thanks so much! I was nervous that paper sillouettes wouldn't be interesting enough but with only a few days I'm pretty happy with how it ended up haha
Wow, that was really well done! I made it to the end with one person haha. Really good take on a classic.
Niiice! Glad you liked it! <3
Hello Cooper! I enjoyed playing your game. I am a fan of any Oregon Trail type game and its incredible you made this all in 3 days!
Thanks so much! I definitely did not sleep very much over the last many days haha
