i've been building a universe for almost 10 years now. i wanna talk about it!
some time in the near future a faceless billionaire starts a business called afterspace. this mega corporation boasts of a technique that transfers brain data onto hard drives in order to convert people into what they call "angels" (they're ghosts) after death, with the use of drone-like, light-emitting nanobots. centuries later, mr. billionaire has racked up enough cash to fly all the rich off planet, colonizing the moon. once the rich are gone, the earth begins to heal and magic returns to the world. witches and warlocks run amock.
meanwhile, trouble begins when afterspace ghosts start glitching out. a group of vigilante youngsters investigate these instances and determine something about the human mind may be incompatible with the technology used to preserve them. they begin to develop a method of unbinding and releasing souls en masse.
they are contacted by a mysterious hacker by the username of hexhax who claims to have perfected a method for separating souls from their ghostly shells, and is interested in teaming up. we learn more about this hacker as the plot unfolds, and it becomes clear that she is a shady individual with ulterior motives.
the game my partner and i are developing right now is from hexy's perspective, navigating her puzzling environments and interacting with afterspace ghosts. i'm super excited to share more as we make progress on our project!
