"It's a very weird position to be in because it feels like a bit of a veiled compliment," they said. It's something the developer admitted to feeling uncomfortable about. That seems particularly pertinent when the game has been nominated for four BAFTAs, including British Game and Game for Impact. Indeed, solo developer Gareth Damian Martin told me "the game is intended to be about now, as opposed to about the future". And now, with the third and final arc of its DLC released today, it's a game that explores refugees too. But it's also a game about identity, about capitalism, and about trans experience. It's a reflection of our present, how today's anxieties and issues might be represented tomorrow.Ĭitizen Sleeper is a game about an android in a space station, overthrowing a corrupt corporation, and finding a home. Science fiction often isn't really about the future.
