Résumé

Born to a city of wonders beyond your reach, scarcity has always been a close friend. As a courier, the city’s human infrastructure, you scale its roofworks, evade its constables, risk death every day for others’ convenience — until opportunity crosses your path, and you’re allowed to discover what you believe beyond survival.

Given a scrap of power, how do you reinvent yourself, your relationship to the city, its people? Will it allow you to maintain a companionship based on mutual struggle?

And, beneath it all, from where do the canals in this desert flow?

Notes:

You'll likely want to play online rather than download. If you’d like to explore alternate endings, it is recommended that you save when you reach the Waterworks Hub.

You’ll have to forgive me the grungy-90s-album-cover art. The intended artist was experiencing some life circumstances!

And for your listening pleasure, here is a selection of sounds which kept me typing:
