JUSTIFIED ANXIETY redesign
I'm experimenting with doing layout on my computer rather than by hand - it might be easier, or it might end up being a lot more work than writing it down. I dunno. We'll see.
Anyway, here's a redesign of JUSTIFIED ANXIETY, a game which comes so close to infringing copyright I should probably just try and sell it to Mongoose already.
Do you prefer the cleaner layout, or does the rough-and-ready charm of the hand-drawn one float your boat? Let me know.

I like the charm of the hand written, but the readability of the digital one. I think there could be a middle ground, along the lines of the pages in a D&D book.
I like the handwritten games in theory, they have charm like others have said but they aren't practical for use. I end up having to digitally lay the games out on my own before actually playing them.
I love the style & feel of the handwritten versions. Ultimately it’s what works best for you as the game designer.
For the physical copies I receive, I prefer the hand-written look. It feels like having little artifacts on the shelf, as opposed to just another set of rules to consider when gaming night comes up. But I may be reading too much into it. And may be influenced by the fact that some of my favorite games (The Witch is Dead, Honey Heist, Gay Orcs) thematically fit the hand-written look.
I'm a fan of the handmade version. It's charming!
I agree with Marco Mairer. The computer layout is nicer for printing and sharing, but the charm of the hand drawn and written games is very nice.
