I'm impressed. one guy in his bedroom did this all on his own! I don't think this is for everyone, but it's a very enjoyable story if you're okay with a calm and thoughtful. time travel pods can be confusing. this is wild, but not half as difficult to follow as Woe Begon it tells a story, but involves a lot of talk about the inner experience, not really told as a standard adventure.
