VOID_SHIFT is out (digitally)! It's a solo deckbuilder that takes like, I don't know, half an hourish to roll through a job. 30 cards to assemble a 15 card deck, 6 job cards that comprise what you're doing.

yes and, being brave is a practice. you will probably not be brave the first time opportunity presents itself. You have to work through your discomfort with danger, with vulnerability, every time

I'm in this one too! This is still going on and it's for an important cause - disaster relief across the country this year is going to be harder than ever and every little bit of preparation to handle it goes a long way. And hey, you get a bunch of great games out of it.
