How does the game fit the theme?
You rely on the three factions for Favor and points, but if you let any one of them become too powerful, they take control and end your run.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Music, ambience, SFX and fonts are third-party and credited in-game. All game code, design and visual assets were made during the jam.

Firstly, congrats on tackling your first game jam (and doing it alone! I was not so brave and teamed up xD)
Before I mention anything about the game itself I must say that it is a great idea to publish the dev logs, I haven't seen anyone else do it and it is both a great organizing tool for the dev and really nice for the players who can see the progression and thought process behind the game development.
The game itself is really good. it is always great to have a "how to play" page especially for games with more complexity or mechanics. The art is really "smooth" for lack of a better word haha, just feels easy on the eyes and everything matches. The audio really seals the deal and gives the whole experience the finishing touch.
The game is simple but very fun and can be replayed multiple times, over and over without feeling repetitive, and is very impressive for a game made in one week
Really nice entry and again congrats for finishing your first game jam :D
Thanks a lot for taking the time to write such a detailed review! I’m especially glad you enjoyed the devlogs. I mostly started them to document the jam for myself, so it’s really nice to hear that they are an interesting read for others too.
And thanks for all the kind words about the game itself. I feel like I learned quite a bit in that one week, mostly because actually finishing and shipping something is such a different experience from just building a prototype. Really glad you enjoyed it!
It's cool to see a fully designed "board" game created during the jam. I could definitely see this being an interesting one to play against someone at an actual table!
Edit: Oh I also really appreciated that you made a devlog for each day, I'll have to keep that idea in mind for future jams
Thanks a lot for taking the time to play and for checking out the devlogs too! I’m really glad the board game feel came through, since that was a big part of what I was going for. And it’s nice to hear the daily devlogs were actually interesting to follow. Thanks again!
Great game please rate my game
Thanks for playing and rating! Glad you enjoyed it.
