When your alpha is held together by spite, caffeine, and AI-generated duct tape, you don't get a post mortem. You get whatever the hell this is.

Few weeks ago I wrote about a side project that I’m using to learn, this is my reviewing what I missed on the project, the main issues after a few dozen games in the platform with friends. And what I learned in the process.

All comments, feedback is appreciated.
