Fragmented Cosmos

If they think I’ll let a budget cut destroy my dream, they haven't met a scientist with a mission!

In 'Fragmented Cosmos', players step into the shoes of Dr. Christopher Reynolds, an astronomer at the University of Maryland, who is facing an uphill battle to save his groundbreaking project, the AXIS space telescope. With federal funding slashed and a chaotic political climate threatening the future of scientific research, players must navigate a web of bureaucratic intrigues, collaborate with former colleagues, and make critical choices that may reshape the destiny of science itself. Using interactive dialogue systems and branching storylines, players will experience the emotional and ethical dilemmas of modern scientific endeavors, all while racing against time to gather support, find alternative funding sources, and keep the dream of discovery alive. Will you adapt and overcome, or will the world of science be plunged into darkness?
