Hmm, not intentional.... ah, there it is. Most recently uploaded version is interactive so the links work. The final upload will include both interactive and HQ print files.
Tales from the Cockpit is a Lost & Found game about a prototype Mecha! You might think now, cool, I get to pilot a Mecha in this game - not so fast! The game is about the Mecha - not the pilots. And yes, one Mecha - different pilots. Because the pilots perish in this game, but the Mecha stays!
Tales from the Cockpit is designed as a solo game, but I could see this also a fun bonding activity within a group. Play is structured in Acts and you are prompted with questions that shape the story.
It is a very sombre game I could see myself play in cozy café on a day off - but play could also be in sessions throughout the year, since it is easy to pick up from you left of.
I would categorize this as a journaling game, but the game text suggests other options to play and do like the idea of making voice recordings instead of written journal entries.
I really enjoy the juxtaposition between the excitement of Mecha media and the sombre tone of this game. This really brings a unique perspective to the Mecha table!

Is it intentional that the 7/15/24 version has sharper art than the 11/9/24 version?
