The premise, in the publisher's words

During a mundane asteroid mining job, two space miners get trapped inside a corporate time loop nightmare. Their only way out is to argue and bicker to stay sane, all the while drinking a copious amount of coffee. Set on a grimy corporate mining ship, QCC is a reinterpretation of the time loop genre featuring gallows humor, existential dread, a broad look into Absurdist philosophy and the rise of AI in our current times. The story and banter follow a meta narrative where characters eventually attempt to reclaim authorship over the narrator to break free out of their fate which was sealed the moment the game started.
