Spadyssey

Spadyssey is a hard sci-fi ensemble visual novel about six people who are never coming home.

In 2478, humanity sent its first deep-space observatory ship, the Yuanwang, toward an anomalous signal eleven light years away. There are six people aboard, and the ticket is one-way.

Over fourteen years they meet one impossible thing after another: a sunset on a starless planet, a dead city that still keeps its memories, another ship identical to their own, a distress call from eleven years in the future. At first they believe they are exploring the universe. Then they begin to suspect the universe has been waiting for them.
