Description

“StewardShip” is a virtual reality (VR) survival game set in a subterranean cave on an alien world. The game is a narrative-driven experience centered around the titular Stewards, a series of crewmembers awoken by the mining ship they inhabit after something catastrophic occurs, causing the ship to become irreparably buried. The player takes on the role of these successive Stewards to survive, explore, and uncover the mystery of how they ended up buried on an alien planet. Each Steward emerges into a unique environment, as the circumstances of the previous Steward impact how the setting has evolved during the time passed. Ultimately, the Stewards work towards the goal of uncovering the mystery of their situation and escaping the planet alive. The game's main focus is to give a new meaning for death and what it could mean for the player. With each Seward being awoken sometime after another dies, the player will have different experiences with each steward, who doesn't know that they are not the first. This also allows the passage of time from the death of one steward and the waking of another, causing changes in the environment which gives the player new and interesting things to explore.
