Game Overview

Redshirt is a comedy sci-fi social networking simulation game where you play as the station's most ambitious low-ranking peon, tasked with navigating the professional and interpersonal politics of the ubiquitous Spacebook. As intense intergalactic conflict rages around you, it's up to you to accrue those all-important likes on your status updates! Whether you're looking for love, opportunities for promotion, or even a chance to play Zero-G golf with the captain, you can schmooze your way through social circles and claw your way up the career ladder. But beware - as you climb the ranks, rumors start spreading that something terrible will happen soon aboard the station... Will you be able to stop being a disposable nobody before it's too late? Gameplay is turn-based, where you'll create and customize your character, interact with randomly-generated AI-driven characters through Spacebook, try to win friends and influence station citizens, or focus on what skills you need to climb the career tree. The choice is yours, but remember - time is of the essence! Redshirt's take on science fiction clichés is amusing, telling short stories in the form of status updates and messages, but the activity of playing the game is rather intense, even though it's a turn-based life management sim. As if accidentally snubbing friends and causing heartbreak weren't enough, a short while into your misadventure, a disturbing message arrives - a calamity is coming. The station is doomed. People will die.
