"Heroes, Please" is my take on "Papers, Please." I got there from "harvest", by playing around with language of "harvesting talent", which I think was ultimately a bit of a stretch.
I'm submitting this entry as a Jam, since technically it has a gameplay loop, and a win/lose condition. But, it definitely lacks and polish, and I debated using the Unfinished category.
You get a list of rules that the King requires you to follow when hiring heroes for his journey across the country side. Each hero in the lineup has specific stats. You need to ensure the hero stats meet the kings requirements, until the line of heroes is done.
While I didn't finish, I did learn some new skills with Unity, and some valuable game jam lessons for next time around. I imagine I'll come back later this week and put down some post-mortem thoughts.
