Beskrivning

On a distant planet’s orbital station, terraforming work is in progress. The workers have fears, dreams, and conflicts, but they are united by the hostile environment of space and the planet. When an accident occurs in the planetary habitat, a four-person team escapes into a shuttle traveling between the planet and the orbital station. They soon realise that the shuttle’s controls and radio communication with the station are malfunctioning. The shuttle drifts toward deep space, and hope begins to fade. Finally, there is only one hour left in the shuttle, the closeness of others, and the endless darkness.

In this scene-based game, players switch between moments in the cramped shuttle and everyday events on the orbital station during the past year. The scenes are guided by soundscapes. The game is suited for players who enjoy dark themes, interpersonal relationships, and gritty sci-fi. It is inspired by e.g. Martha Wells’ Murderbot Diaries and the Finnish sci-fi larp Chronos (Sara Sammallahti, Julius Väliaho, Anni Aarinen, Mikko Heimola, Minna Heimola, Jere Kaiku, Emi Maeda, Ira Nykänen, Mikko Ryytty, Susse Peltonen ja Jaakko Vartiala 2022). Content warnings: loud noises, darkness, loss, death.
