    Meet June, a spunky Chinese-American college student trying to make sense of her complicated relationship with her immigrant mother.

    This is the love story between her and Miles, a quiet artist who is recovering after a harsh past with mental illness.

    Set on a scenic stargazing trip, create your stories among the stars as you hear powerful narratives from the hidden ways Asian parents say "I love you" to the social isolation of depression. Our game is a vignette into modern relationships, a story that will leave you calling your close ones to tell them you love them.

    Look up, let go, and take a chance on the night sky.

    The Space in Between is an emotional dating sim about Asian-American identity, mental health, and stargazing.

    The Space in Between can be completed in less than an hour, but it’s the quality of the writing, the beauty of the aesthetics, and the importance of its message that make it feel like a much longer experience. How the team managed to condense two lifetimes of pain and trauma found within the Asian-American community into a 30-minute experience is beyond me. If you’re looking for a wonderfully sweet depiction of a healthy relationship or want to play more games exploring the Asian-American experience, look no further than The Space in Between — the only cost is 30 minutes of your time (and maybe some tissues).
