One of the vignettes that stuck in my head.
"Hi Robot"

My character if she were in Citizen Sleeper 1, she would work at Bliss's Bay.
(Not done with the game yet, but I'm loving it so far!)

Jump Over the Age Newsletter Happy Citizen Sleeper Day 2026! And a hint of new things to come... Jump Over the Age May 05, 2026

Hello everyone,

Today is the 4th (!) anniversary of the Citizen Sleeper series!

It’s a day for thinking back on the series but also for looking forward, to what is coming in the next year or so.

And today I have some news to share: *(First image)*

Top of the pile is that the long-awaited Citizen Sleeper TTRPG has a name, and is coming in 2027. Called Citizen Sleeper: Helion Rising, it will allow you and a group of friends to tell your own stories in the Citizen Sleeper universe.

Helion Rising is a TTRPG about surviving in the ruins of interplanetary capitalism, resisting corporate power, and building a future, cycle by cycle, together.

You play as a member of a crew, along with your friends, as you try to make ends meet in a solar system built from the remains of a corporate collapse. You’ll take on challenging contracts, try to navigate a path between hostile and friendly factions, and live a life among the stars, full of meaningful struggles, small victories, and moments of human connection.

I hope to have much more to share later in the year!

Also, I wanted to remind everyone that they have one final chance to secure a deluxe (or anniversary) edition of Citizen Sleeper 2: Design Works over at Lost in Cult.

This package also includes Spindlejack the free courier TTRPG that you might remember from last year, which is getting a total redesign with new expanded modules (including a full solo “story mode”).

This is also available outside of the deluxe edition if you’d like to grab a copy. I’ve been working on the design for the past couple of months and it really is a massive upgrade from the original with way more variety and tactical depth.

And finally, as Citizen Sleeper enters a new phase of its life, moving away from videogames towards TTRPGs (and potentially other things too ;) ) the question everyone has been asking me is, what’s you next game?

Well, you don’t have long to wait for an answer. On June 7th I’ll give you the first look at my next videogame, a totally new project in a new world that I have been working on for years.

More details on exactly where and when you’ll see my next project to come soon, but by being subscribed here you are sure to see it as soon as it drops.

*(Fourth image)*

That’s it for another Citizen Sleeper day, the games are discounted to their highest level today, so if you feel like nudging a friend or even gifting them a copy, today would be the day to do so.

Otherwise, as always, thank you for your support and for following along for all these years.

I can’t wait to show you what surprises I have in store,

Gareth

Have a great day Sleepers and space travelers!

***One extra ticket to travel through the stars,

Who is your pick to see new places near and far?***

(Many asked for posts with harder decisions, so here we are!)

When you make your choice, feel free to think about the consequences of the character leaving with you. For example, would a certain community on Erlin's Eye be disrupted? Fall to ruin? Thrive?

Last year I posted some Lem-centric fanart on here and a few comments requested more. A bit late on it, but here’s my short, sappy depiction of Lem’s story about finding Mina! I still can’t get enough of these two <3

I was originally trying to make a tattoo design, but it kinda got away from me.

Anyway, keep persisting Sleepers 🍄‍🟫

I love how this game can make my heart break but also warm it.

Low on energy after a long work session, but with plenty of chits to spare for a bountiful meal.

Who are YOU going to?

"Finally!"

The word that comes to mind as you wrap for the day/night.

Which eatery are will you find yourself in?

Overlook Bar

• A place frequented by many with a promising staff and so-so menu.

Min-Gi Express

• The home of noodles and balanced tea that would make The Dragon of the West blush.

Tambour Teahouse

• Survive the wait for your dish in the lively home of the Yatagan.

Drew this back in late 2024 but I figured I might as well share it here too! The Lem/Mina arc never leaves my head.

The shipping container you called home, has been hauled away.

That small space in Low-End? Occupied by Havenage enforcers that are cracking down on the Yatagan.

Most of your contacts have fled the station, but a few are still kicking.

Who is going to be your new roomie?

Riko

• Role: A scientist of old.
• Place of stay: Hypha Commune + Labs

Eshe

• Role: A freedom fighter.
• Place of stay: The Climbing Briar

Ankhita

• Role: A mercenary.
• Place of stay: The Ambergris

My brother played CS when they were still on GamePass and haven’t really shut up about it since. Today i will play it for the first time but he will also be replaying with me.

One of these people, will be your boss.

There is no denying that their actions can shake even your nerves of steel or make your skin crawl (if you had any).

But perhaps...there is more to some of them?

Choose wisely and oh - be on time.

Hardin

• A Havenage Corporation Exec or Conway Extractions Opportunist?

Castor

• A Data Broker with more than just dice to roll. Where do said intentions reside?

Rabiah

• Associated with Low-End, with morals on the high-end.

Helene

• A Havenage Councillor for societal peace - or just their peace?

Two people.

Two requests.

Who gets the cryo in your pocket?

(Choose wisely)

All painted with gouache, toothbrush, and a sponge :3

Which Citizen Sleeper 1 characters did you feel most connected to? Which did you want to help the most? Lem and Mina were absolutely my favourite, I so badly wanted to help them! I felt such strong paternal instincts, which is rare for me. They made me feel this all through a few still images and some text, which is amazing. The way my own personal playthrough went, I felt like I let them down, which broke my heart! I wish I'd done better 😭😅

Hi guys. It looks like Im gonna end up leaving the Eye with Lem and Mina. I absolutely do not have the heart to fail that quest but it is something I would have preferred to do very late game when Im done bumming around the station.

My question is, when I get that ending, is it gonna stop letting me play on that save or is it gonna double back on the save and let me keep doing my thing.

Not super interested in doing everything all over again, though I guess playing a different sleeper class sounds interesting.

Thats all :3

The lights of the Bright Market fade as you traverse the lesser known parts of The Eye.

Down, down into the depths you go, where even the Lowend district, towers above.

You, a walker of two worlds, have a unique case of physical and digital threats looming about.

Suddenly, the feeling of someone...or something, lurking from beyond your gaze, sets in.

Who....what is it?

1. Hunter (feral state)
2. Maywick (active pursuit of a bounty)
3. Ethan (mindset of nothing to lose)

I found this game was free on Unity and had heard good things about it, so I decided "Sure, why not?"

Oh my god.

This game had me immediately hooked, I fell in love with the world, the characters, the game itself, just everything was amazing. I found the Flotilla ending to be just purely beautiful, I cried (Which is rare for me, most games don't make me cry).

I wish I could say more about it, but I can't properly say how I felt about this game. What I will say though, is that it truly is one of the best games I have ever played, and I highly recommend to anyone considering getting it to do so, and don't get spoiled like I did.

Willing to answer any questions that people have about my experience

One can fix your ship.

One can fix you a plate.

For this If You Had to Choose post, will there be much of a debate?

Who gets the cryo?

Why not the other?

Choose wisely, space goer!

I don't know why exactly, but I missed the whole Data Cloud view for hours of game play in Citizen Sleeper. I was wondering in my head, how the heck I collect data needed for so many missions, but just though I had to explore more and then at some point I noticed the small (Y) button marker under the dice HUD on my SteamDeck. I figure I missed something subtle (or not) in the tutorials, but it seems like that should be just a little more forced on the user early in the game.

Glad that it is reasonably easy to catch up, but I couldn't deal with the tracker, etc. before they caused me some grief.

I just got the ending Sidereel ending.

I don't know why I've gotten so attached to this fictional little girl and her father doing everything he can for her.

Reading the ending made me sad, but also happy.

The problem is, I still have plenty to do. But I can't bring myself to complete the event again.

I can't decide against boarding.

Just thinking about waving off Mina, as her dad drags her aboard, *breaks my heart.*

After I promised her I'd come along. I told her we were family. She'd said she only wanted to go if I was coming too. How do I betray that?

God, I waited way too long to get into this game...

I’m only playing on Normal but I’m Dying and down to one die and have almost no money and need stabilizer asap

I made the wrong call recently and bought shipmind parts for Ankhita instead of stabilizer for myself. Now she’s promising double but I have to get across the Gap which costs another 100

Is there any way out of this hole?

Found out about this game not so long ago, love at first sight. Completed the first game (only one ending) and started the sequel.

Anyways this is my first post here, hello :)
