Our take on Killing Time at Lightspeed: Enhanced Edition
The defining structure is the widening communication delay: a message sent from the ship can reach Earth after minutes, days, weeks, or years, turning each feed refresh into a brief view of lives moving forward without the passenger.
What is Killing Time at Lightspeed: Enhanced Edition?
This interactive fiction follows a passenger aboard a spacecraft departing Earth at lightspeed.
The player scrolls through social feeds as communication delays grow from minutes to hours, days, weeks, and years on Earth. Each refresh reveals another glimpse of lives continuing far away, while brief interactions shape what can be said to friends before time separates them. The expanded edition adds further stories through the Friendpage and Skimmit feeds, Steam achievements that reward experimentation and exploration, and a new soundtrack. The experience focuses on observing changing timelines, reading messages, and deciding how to use limited moments of contact across time and space.
