A Line Held Tight

A Line Held Tight

A dynamic sci-fi visual novel set in the 32nd Century at a mining colony on a distant world. You play as The Canary, a miner cut off from Earth by vast distances. When a strike boils over, you must decide where your heart and loyalties lie as tensions rise both politically and personally.

Gameplay

Your choices shape the narrative and have outcomes both small and large. You'll impact The Canary's relationships with friends, family, and fellow workers as emotions run high and opinions divide.

Setting

Isolated at humanity's furthest reaches, the mine and its inhabitants rely only on each other. Your only weapons are work mechs - gigantic rigs designed for drilling and hauling rock, not combat.

Presentation

Hand-drawn charcoal art and a soundtrack of traditional folk tunes from the British Isles and Europe connect the future to the past.
