The Future Voice

Deadline's tomorrow. The page is blank. So you fall asleep at the typewriter... and the episode fights back.

The Future Voice is a pixel-art card-battler RPG. You are the Author, a sleep-deprived TV writer whose dreams turn into the sci-fi episodes you're meant to be scripting. Write them by beating them.

Explore living dioramas. Every episode has its own area, with its own map shape, time of day and place name. Walk 2D-HD isometric sets: icy alien worlds, gothic manors, starship corridors, haunted libraries and crystal caves, with drifting shadows, pixel fog and a tilt-shift glow. Dodge glowing trap tiles, talk to guests and roll narrative checks for a head start.

Swirl into card battles. Reach the villain and a classic JRPG swirl drops you into the arena. Play Doctors, companions, the TARDIS and the Sonic Screwdriver against Dalek Drones, Cybermen, Weeping Angels and The Master. Read each enemy's threat card, hit their weakness and guard your Coffee Meter.

Crack reality. Crossover heroes like Kirk, Spock, Picard, Teal'c, Luke Skywalker and Han & Chewie break into episodes from other universes. Play a card from another franchise or era for a Reality Crack that doubles its power, and survive Pirate Signal turns that scramble your hand against the clock. Face the Borg Queen, Darth Vader and Count Dracula.

Don't wake up. If your coffee runs dry, an alarm clock shatters the dream: DEADLINE MISSED. Hit Sleep Again and take another shot at the scene.

Collect and customise. Spend Ink in the Archive on three booster packs, twelve Doctor variants that change card frames, outfits and stats, card variants, and three ultra-rare DeLorean Schematic Fragments.

Write the whole timeline. 181 episodes across 16 tracks: four Doctor eras, Star Trek, Stargate and Star Wars parallels, and spin-off branches, with hidden easter eggs, pop-culture glitch events and era broadcast looks.

Play with keyboard, touch or controller.
