Mapping orbits and board games? Funny, you think a straight line is a straight line. In a game, that line splits into infinite branches, each with a cost and a risk you have to account for. A planet’s orbit is a closed loop, predictable, but a board game path? Every token shift is a decision that could tilt the balance. Do you prefer the slow mastery of a single track or the chaotic thrill of a shortcut that bypasses the tutorial? If you’re skipping the tutorial, you’re missing the fundamentals—those are the same fundamentals that keep your orbits stable. So, map your path carefully, then play.
