Ah, it feels just like yesterday whenCitizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vectorhadaround a year of development time left. Actually, I’d say it feels like it precisely around February 2nd of this year. Well, would you look at that. It seems making excellentRPGs isn’t Jump Over The Age’s only skill. They’ve also predicted the exact release of their game to within a 3 day margin of error: the actual release date is the 31st of January, 2025.Citizen Sleeper 2 - Date Announce TrailerWatch on YouTubeAs just revealed at the Percy Coswald Gamer show, the sequel toCitizen Sleeperwill be here next January, narrowed down from its previous ‘2025’ release date. There’s been a fair few sleeper-heads here at RPS, including Katharine (RPS in Peace), who couldn’t contain her excitement on learningthe sequel was real.Brendan spoke to Jump Over The Age’s Gareth Damian Martin recently, too, about a variety of subjects including theearly 2000’s Australian TV sci-fi show that inspired it. There’s also some fun crunchy design talk in there.“When you make games you have to accept that you are inherently quantifying absolutely everything,” says Martin, “because a game is just a load of numbers. And so even if the player can’t see those numbers, they definitely exist.“It’s fun to push and pull at that, and have the player… maybe sometimes feel uncomfortable, if they’re telling their favourite character what to do. I love the idea of that kind of narrative gameplay infecting the mechanical gameplay.“You can currently grab the first Citizen Sleeper with a bunch of other games as part of theJingle Jam 2024bundle.
