Quarantined inside an airlock. No memories. No way out. The remaining crew thinks there’s something wrong with you, but the Voice says it’ll help you escape. Navigate volatile conversations & unravel mysteries in this narrative adventure about trust, self-destruction, & shifting identities. Vessels is an IGF award winning 2-3 hour, character-driven story, in which no one is exactly who they appear to be… even you. With the help of the enigmatic Voice, rewind time and control the other crew members to explore, manipulate, and gain control. Experience atmospheric, environmental storytelling as you piece together clues on a ship reeling from a grisly death and spreading paranoia. Made by a team local Austin game devs – the Local Space Survey Corps!
6 students from Austin, Texas worked together since August 2019 to create Vessels. Originally inspired by a twine by the team’s lead, John Baxa, the game builds on the team’s shared love of sci-fi, story, and interest in creating a meaningful, entertaining game. The team hopes players enjoy the characters, story, and ideas in Vessels.
