On a transport ship leaving earth, a passenger kills time by scrolling through the messages of their social media feed. As the ship leaves and moves further and further away from home, the delay between sending messages and their arrival lengthens. What feels like minutes on the ship is hours, days, weeks, even years back on Earth. Each refresh of the timeline is a tiny window into the past. What will you do in those precious few moments as the lives of everyone you know pass by?
A critically acclaimed work of interactive fiction, Killing Time at Lightspeed allows players to experience life aboard a spaceship hurtling through lightspeed. Just how much can you affect other people's lives with your fleeting interactions through social media? And will it be for the better?
I've just published a patch that should fix the issue with links in news articles, as well as:
- some minor spelling fixes
- potential fix for the game not closing correctly on mac
- fixed two achievements that weren't being triggered correctly
- fixed some messages that weren't nested correctly
There was a few hours in-between patches tonight where the mac version wouldn't load correctly. It seems to be running fine again now.
