Hi:)
1. ENORMOUSLY fun to do. This spurred me to work with a great collaborator I hope to work with again and it felt like an alternate angle into the game that worked really for me, as this sort of SF is something I'm really fond of. Thanks for putting it together:)
2. These helped a lot and I honestly wonder whether there's something further to be done here. A lot of the work I've done in the past, across TTRPG and academia, has been driven by explorable resource lists like this. I wonder if there's some worth in opening this to various people to add further material to and maybe publishing as a Primer of sorts. 'Want to run astronaut missions? Here's some good inspiration'. that sort of thing.
3. The only person who put me under time pressure on this one was me. I think the time limit worked fine and the support worked GREAT.
4. This is where things get a little complex for me. There's no way for this to not sound like sour grapes, so please believe me when I say it's not, I feel like the criteria and the feedback (And I'm aware, and grateful that I flicked the PLEASE BE NICE switch) and the scores have a small gap between them. We only got two reviews, and while both were useful (And this was my first time:)) it was a bit disheartening to come in last. Especially as (And I know everyone works differently and I respect that) I worked my ass off to review as many other entries as possible. I also suspect my approach to the game and game design may not have helped. I've always been taught to offer a bunch of options, and I think Mothership both demands and rewards specificity.
5. I think it's less change and more expansion. Some more time for reviews would be great and building out the references would be fun too. This worked GREAT, and it's such a strong foundation for another iteration.
Like I say, I had a blast doing this and I'll definitely be back. Someone's got to come in last, this time it was my turn:)
