Asteroid Orchard Grievances Published!

Made this ~30 mins visual novel/interactive fiction during the last few months, hope it brings you joy :)

Live the last 7 days of an asteroid farmer's life against an AI revolution and trillionaires in the future.

A visual novel game about labor, identity, choices, and future farmers.

Asteroid Orchard Grievances is a short video game set in an interplanetary future controlled by multi-trillionaires. Cross Liu (player) volunteered to supervise one of the earliest asteroid farms run by Nickle Hawthorne, the world’s first trillionaire who amassed his wealth through asteroid mining. A mining AI uprising is broiling over the entire system from Nickle’s Kuiper Belt mining operations. As Cross finds themselves caught in the middle of the turmoil, they go on a final journey to reconcile with their addiction, consumption, political stance, and sexuality.

Warning: the narratives of the game explores themes of racism, capitalism, sexuality, and Elon fetish in a mildly provocative manner. Consume at your own risk.
