Over dit spel

Two space miners get trapped inside a corporate time loop nightmare.

Coffee gets brewed.

Hilarity ensues.

Quantum Coffee Conundrum is a kinetic visual novel focused on immersive sound and atmosphere, offering a dark comedy and reverent pastiche to the Golden Age of Philosophical Science Fiction, in an attempt to blend the industrial cynicism of Harlan Ellison to the Absurdist conflict of Albert Camus and the reality-warping paranoia of Philip K. Dick.

This Steam release serves as a Supporter Edition for those who wish to own the game in their library and support the author's future endeavors. Consider this a digital tip jar for the price of a mere coffee capsule -- while a coffee lasts ten minutes, this experience offers 90+ minutes of cheeky banter on a backdrop of science fiction, featuring metaphysical time looping hijinks.

Beschrijving inhoud voor volwassenen

De ontwikkelaars omschrijven de inhoud als volgt:

This work of Philosophical theory of Absurdism and Science Fiction is intended for a mature audience. Includes suggestive themes, a non-graphic written depiction of a tooth injury, sexual innuendos, fictional slurs directed at artificial intelligence to satirize bureaucratic control and social hierarchies, and blue-collar gallows humor employed to cope with anxieties about the unquantifiable. In the tradition of Albert Camus and his Myth of Sisyphus, Quantum Coffee Conundrum tackles the "only truly serious philosophical problem." The story examines the concept of the 'philosophical suicide' -- the surrender of the mind to dogma or despair -- within the claustrophobic time loop of a corporate nightmare. These concepts are central to the work's exploration of Absurdism and the human struggle for meaning in a silent universe. QCC explores themes of existential dread, faith, systemic collapse within a corporate hell setting and madness caused by the erosion of reality. Features heavy socio-political satire regarding real-world technology and postmodern society. They do not represent the personal views, beliefs, or values of the author.
