before describing the events that take place on the main planet, i also have a section describing what happened before any trouble even arrived in the first place. the further i go back the less specific i want to be about any of these details. i think telling the story through the lens of the game is probably more impactful and i don't want to leave too much to go off of.
needless to say, there is big trouble for the inhabitants of the planet in Satellite. i think my explanation of how this sets itself up is interesting in a sci-fi way, but of course i would think that. it's an idea i had many years ago and i think it makes the premise of a video game an interesting medium for telling it.
i didn't finish this section tonight, but i wrote the start of it in a more coherent way than i think i've ever written it before.
