i started this in september for the zine fest, this still counts! i thought, hmmm i’ve been listening to heaps of various forms of space scifi, what could i possibly do a zine about?

this was my first ever zine! i think i might do a follow-up of honorable mentions that didn’t make it in, i already had to modify the format cuz i had too much to say xD

Trick or treat!

I give you: an underrated sci-fi audio drama miniseries, Roguemaker!

Based on a discord-based RPG a friend of mine participated in, Roguemaker is a single-season complete story about a passenger spaceflight to an interstellar music festival... that gets hijacked and bombed. The passengers all escape into escape pods, and land on a planet that shouldn't exist. A locked-room mystery of a sense, the characters have to determine: who set the bomb? What were they after? And what does it have to do with this sunless planet that they conveniently happened to be nearby enough to land on?

Cool characters and a fun mystery! Though sometimes the audio is tough to understand :')

Hi! Had a relatively strong podcast year, so I think I could go for a podcast recommendation, if you'd give me one. Thanks! Hope you have a lovely day. And a lovely rest of the year. :)

ROGUEMAKER

When a far-future commercial spaceflight ends in disaster, the survivors are left floating in escape pods with nothing but the radio for company. What happened to their flight? And…where are they going now?

This Audio Verse Award-winning sci-fi whodunnit mystery features music, intercepted fast-food advertisements, and things that should never be found. Listen wherever you find your podcasts.

hi! wanderer’s lament was my favorite song (i paused and listened to it again before letting tarsul talk), and i was curious, is it a ǵnonw song or an about gardens original?

It's an ancient ǵnonw folk song! Something Woh́́ has been singing since their childhood, with the accompanying comforting nostalgia despite its haunting storyline. We love it, too--and are very proud that it won an Audio Verse Award last year! https://audioverseawards.net/2022-winners/#Best_Composition_for_a_New_Production

Since the ǵnonw live underground, our composer Emily went with a simple percussive sound for the instrumental portion of the song. Wanderer's Lament is also inspired by a similar moment in the first episode of The Strange Case of Starship Iris, in which characters stuck in space sing an old folk song (Whiskey in the Jar) together. (Also also, Emma wrote most of the lyrics right after seeing Dune in theatres...that mighta affected some things xD)

R is for @roguemaker!

Sci-fi. Commercial flight Plutonic 999 explodes, but this is no accident. The passengers are forced to evacuate, each in their own individual escape pod. Unable to contact each other, they’re left floating in space, while their pods’ radios play adverts.

Congratulations to all the 2022 Audioverse winners, but particularly delighted to have this newest weapon in my arsenal against Alasdair’s imposter syndrome.

oh hey i have polls now

[littleacebee]

Sometimes I put on Roguemaker playlists on while I’m cooking and then feel like a character in Roguemaker universe simply listening to these songs on the radio 😌

[conscious-naivete]

okay i’m kissing the worldbuilding of roguemaker on the mouth i don’t think ive ever seen a space scifi setting where there’s just two species. or, there’s three, but the one was ancient and disappeared before the other two reached space. it’s really fascinating and a change of pace, like, instead of having all these intergalactic species going on, it’s just the humans and the gnonw. ep 1 starts us out with a convo btwn lowkey and woh, a human and gnonw, and they casually exposit for us that gnonw have double-chambered larynxes (can harmonize with their self) and live in a tidally-locked planet (static light&dark sides)(“night and day are places for me and times for you”) and as SOON as woh said that i was like Oh Okay pull up a chair i’m here for this. the two cultures are v different and they know Enough about each other but not everything and it’s so cool. i love sci-fi

[bekabloodhound]

Absolutely loving the Behind the Science episode of Roguemaker. You can hear just how much thought and care was out into every aspect of the show, from world-building to character development to sound design. And I'm learning so much! It just makes me want to re-listen to the whole thing all over again!
