cool idea!

Hey BiG bro! I loved this! I think I made it to the end and became emperor (the game stopped... win? crash?) I loved how the story shot me forward through time. The music, setting, and writing as delightful at each stop. Great work.

That was a very fun lineage to follow. No spoilers for anyone else but it went places that I would have never guessed.

Loved it, seeing time eras pass by and situations getting more complex was really interesting. Ending took me off guard in a good way!

This was really cool- at first I made a bad decision and my bloodline ended immediately, but I ended up giving great advice the second time around and made it to the end. Nice twist.

It was surprisingly profound as a concept!
