In Space, No One Cares If You Scream STL: Slower Than Light is a comedy point-and-click action adventure following the less-than-legal efforts of Captain Ana Raynard as she tries to fund a journey out of the lawless fringes of space for her small crew in a ship with no jump drive. STL follows in the footsteps of classic 80s and 90s adventure games, but includes a number of innovations to update it for a modern audience. The most notable of these is the structure which follows a story-of-the-week format presenting the player with a series of smaller missions to investigate, making it perfect for time-poor players with busy careers and/or family lives. In addition we’ll enhance the action aspect of the game by including a series of small 80s- and 90s-inspired arcade games for moments such as cosmic dogfights, badly thought-through races, and shooting your way out of a dingy spacebar. The game will release with 6 stories, each roughly 60 minutes in length. Each one takes place in distinctly different settings with a variety of mission flavours showing the crew’s efforts to leave the world (well, the galaxy) of crime behind.
