Drifting Alone in Space

Alone in a shattered spaceship, You fights to escape space, unaware their helpful companions exist only inside their unraveling mind.

Plot

You drifts through deep space inside a ruined spacecraft, systems failing, oxygen thinning, stars sliding past like indifferent witnesses. The ship is dead… mostly. Emergency lights flicker. Gravity cuts in and out like a faulty memory. You appears to be completely alone. Except they aren’t. At irregular moments, other people appear inside the ship. They speak. They help. They argue. They know things You doesn’t remember telling them. They vanish without explanation. Unknown to You, these figures are hallucinations born from schizophrenia, shaped by stress, isolation, trauma, and the mind’s desperate need for companionship. The story explores survival, perception, and whether escape means repairing the ship or confronting the mind piloting it.

Opening scene

**The Cockpit** You awakens strapped into the pilot’s chair as warning lights strobe across shattered glass. The navigation console loops a distress message addressed directly to them… even though they don’t remember recording it.
