3 Minutes Until Midnight
Theme
3, 2, 1. This is a countdown. But to what? I approached the 2023 IcoJam theme by looking at the countdown toward mutual assured destruction during the Cold War.
Context (PLEASE READ)
Before playing this game, it's practically essential for you to understand what the Doomsday Clock is if you are not familiar with the concept. To summarize, its a symbol to how close humanity is to annihilating itself, in which the closer the clock is to 12:00 (midnight), the closer we are to ending the world.
Fun fact! Right now (as of 2023) the time is 12:58.30, the closest it has ever been (isn't that grand).
Other Notes
And yes, this game is filled to the brim with historical inaccuracies (Spain wasn't a part of NATO, Warsaw Pact would be a better term for the USSR, Yugoslavia and Albania (after 1968) aren't a part of the Warsaw Pact, etc.).

The game was interesting, and I had fun a few times, but! At the start I have 30% HP to the enemy's 80%. How to play this? But his game is a great time killer. Good music
