Then my computer restarted itself. I don't have the patience to try to get that far again (it was my 2nd attempt, my first got me to 16 days), but I did very much enjoy the game.

On my first run, it said "Day 16" on the screen and just never went anywhere past that and the music just kept looping. Having the music fade out or having some sort of text appear to indicate that that is indeed the end would be nice."},{"author_name":"GFM","author_uid":"7375","time":"Dec 29, 2013 @ 1:49am","epoch":1388281440,"text":"This was a tough game... This may not be the best way to describe, but I can't find a better word...\r\rIt's a great game to get us thinking!\r\rSomething I felt was missing is the ability to price another ration. Sometimes, this would be a good option, if what you earned were great enough to buy another one or two (and the other party could always refuse if they weren't able to pay it)."},{"author_name":"somepx","author_uid":"29702","time":"Dec 29, 2013 @ 10:39pm","epoch":1388356440,"text":"Excellent job, almost a complete game - solid, brilliant.
