A downloadable game

This is a micro game for 2 or more players  about being stuck in a time loop at the end of summer. Everyone just needs a 6-sided die to play.

There are two versions of this game included in the downloads:

- a new version, sized as a one-page game on 8.5'' x 11''. This reworks the original version to be a fully playable game.

- a business card sized game, 2'' x 3.5'', that just has a basic version of the system. this is original version of the game.

This was made for the Anime and Manga Tribute TTRPG Jam hosted by Lucky Newt Games. I really love the trope of cicadas in anime on hot summer days. I also took inspiration from the Endless Eight arc from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

I'm only just trying some random journaling games and I don't quite get this one. Is supposed to just give you a minimal amount of setting to write a story to?  

It looks lovely and I was immediately interested by the theme and look.

Thanks for checking it out!

This is more of a small supplement that you can incorporate into another game. It's not really a full journaling game.

Lovely, thanks for clarifying. I'll try to get an endless summer "episode" in somewhere then :)

This is so beautiful -- the art on the card and the idea itself. Also, the die you have in the photo is PERFECT for this game!
