Harvesting Game

High in the shadows of an ancient volcano, trapped between peak and poisoned sea, the last Kuroban maroons face erasure. Their shanty town drowns in the refuse of the sprawling technotropolis below-a gleaming monument to Luxite supremacy that devours everything in its path. After centuries of bondage and cultural erosion, their final challenge isn't just survival, but complete annihilation.

For one 29-year-old Kuroban, living in the old village means bearing the weight of generations. Their software testing job offers just enough comfort to stay quiet, while their mother demands compliance with traditions that barely keep their people alive. But when impossible ideas spark a desperate soul, when the courage to break every rule becomes the only path forward-what choice remains?

Armed with calculated cunning and a vision of video games as engines of liberation-despite never having played one-they're about to challenge everything: cultural enforcement, community expectations, and the very boundaries of what a Kuroban can dare to become.

Their journey connects Solarpunk determination with Afrofuturist possibility, shifting the boundaries of what liberation can mean in a world determined to shun, separate, and consume.
