Estranged is a story-focused space shooter that seamlessly transitions between a 80’s pixel art space shmup and a modern 3D dogfighter. Follow Niomi, Fancy, Georgia, and Float to find out what happens to a planet full of women when they get sucked into the war between an extremist patriarchy in decay and hostile aliens from all over the galaxy.
Enter Jonas: a biracial teenager with autism. Jonas broadcasts all aspects of his life online, including a disastrous first date with his crush, Nicole. Desperate to regain her affections, he dusts off a long-ignored gift from his mother—a classic 2D “Black feminist video game”— hopeful that the game will grant him the key to winning Nicole back. But Jonas soon discovers that, with only the Game Master and his friend Sabine to guide him, he must confront his own misperceptions of the women in his (real) life, or risk losing not only the game but also his first chance at love. In this mashup of live performance, video game design, and online interaction, Jonas and Sabine stream their play on Twitch and find their path through the game together. Along the way, you’ll help (or hinder!) their progress by responding in real time to the choices they make.
