future-no-thanks

Utopia is here. You're not impressed. Future? No Thanks! is a narrative-driven, open-world adventure set in an ecosocialist utopia. The year is 2045, and society has never been better: climate change is finally being tackled, democracy thrives, and technology serves the public good. There's just one problem: you. You are Harvey Huffstone, a grumpy elder who no longer fits in, and today is the last day of your life. Your final mission? Completing your bucket list before your self-scheduled euthanasia. Indulge in outdated pleasures, explore a post-post-industrial Midwest, clash with a society that's moved on without you, and maybe, just maybe, leave with fewer regrets. Explore a lively city, meet its wacky inhabitants, and complete 7 non-linear quests over 6 hours of gameplay. An artisanal game made with locally sourced talent and minimal involvement from capitalists, marketers, or profiteers. In a medium dominated by dystopias, Future? No Thanks! imagines a political project for the present.
