Intro: "Seven O'Clock"

If you ask anyone in the past 10,000 years what they had to say about time, it would probably get responses like:

Huh? What about it? Ahh, need more tbh. SORRY GOTTA GO! It's long, coarse, flowy, and gets everywhere. Huh, I'm feeling déjà vu for some reason.

That sounds about right. In the modern bustle of deadlines and overwhelming bias towards short-term thinking, there is a certain meaning of life that gets lost in the translation of thought to action. Yet:

If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then 'twas not a waste of time.

Like here you are, reading this intro crafted with artisanal detail and eloquent flair, that took time to produce and definitely was not stolen from anywhere. 

Speaking of touch... if you've made it this far, you probably have a bit of time to spare, huh? Why not give the HoloJam Simulator some thought, spend some of the valuable currency crafting in our halls for a change? Or, in simpler terms:

Are you prepared to sacrifice some time, or are you all out?

What’s the theme?

⌚「 Deadlines? More like out of time!  」

• If you could change your fate, would you?
• Good enough, keep going!
• What if time didn’t actually run out?

What are those three helpers? They are always provided with the statement -- you can leverage zero, one, or any of them to help your ideation! They are optional, designed to help with context or inspiration if you don't yet have ideas.
