Queering Spacetime
You are destined lovers across the whole of space and time.
In each millennia and every passing moment, you find each other again.
Sometimes you are just friends, and other times you fall deeply in love.
Each time you find each other, you are always a little different. It takes time to relearn what you both enjoy and how to take care of each other, but you are determined to make it work.
Whether or not you stay is another story, but sometimes all we have is the here and now, and we do our best to enjoy it with the people we have.
It is in this queer space, the in-between space, that we begin.
Queering Spacetime is a whimsical and inclusive dating sim for 2-4 players, set in liminal spaces (e.g. a gas station at 1am) where players roleplay girls who are destined lovers across spacetime.
As of June 2020, a print-to-play (pdfs of the game) has been released! :D It is available here: jellolin.itch.io/queering-spacetime
I'm no longer doing a Kickstarter, and a GameCrafter physical copy is possible but not imminent.
You can stay up to date on my work on my itch.io, portfolio, or my Twitter where I'm pretty active.
There will be rare updates from now on, but you can also follow @queerspacetime on Twitter or sign up for emails below. <3
