Bitter Silver

A Cowboy Bebop-inspired space western visual novel adventure where you get to define your path as bounty hunter Lucia Lopez in the far flung future of the Milky Way Galaxy!

You are Lucia Lopez - a charismatic, down on her luck, ex-solider-turned-bounty-hunter.

Traveling aboard your spaceship, the Athena, you track down bounties to find an answer to a shocking curse that's been plaguing you your whole life. Alongside you is your fun-loving, brash, half human, half alien, partner-in-crime (and love), Zap Matters, and your team's resident tech expert, a robotic talking cat, Hobbes.

It's up to you, Zap, and Hobbes to journey to a city at the fringes of the Milky Way and track down the last three bounties that stand in your way of finding the answers Lucia has been seeking all her life.

And, uh, make some money along the way to pay for, well, everything else.

Kinda important too.
