Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter! [ Mar 9, 2026 ]
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!
(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)
For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.
Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.
Panel 1
Brigid descends into a stark terrain.
Murphy (from ship): The surface is an uninteresting jumble of silicates and oxidized common metals.
Murphy: But inside, more useful metals and just enough water-ice to support a small installation.
Panel 2
A large door in the ground has opened, revealing an underground hangar. Brigid descends into it.
Murphy: Five years ago Seamus sent an automated fab kit with an expert-system.
Murphy: It built a shielded underground installation for us.
Panel 3
Inside the control cabin, Nicole and Murphy.
Nicole: An expert-system? Not an A.I.?
Murphy: A sapient intelligence stuck out here for years on end?
Murphy: You're getting callous in your old age, Nicole.
Panel 4
Nicole and Murphy walk along an enclosed gangway that has extended out from a side of the hangar to the ship.
Nicole: It's freezing here!
Murphy: The pressure environment was kept chilled pending our arrival. It will get more comfortable soon.
