To boldly go where no manic pixie dream girl has gone before.
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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 1497
Panel 1Cut to the Starship Pbbttppbt-fff – Hugo, CP and the entourage are in a large room dominated by four large (1.5-meter thick) conduits intersecting in 3-meter-thick globe in the center. There are consoles all around, with crewmembers attending some of them.
Caption: Meanwhile, in the Pbbttppbt-fff engine room:
CP: The heart of our star-drive.
CP: Annihilation energy is focused and refracted to the nacelles in our drive ring.
Panel 2
Medium c/u on CP and Hugo, gazing up at the globe.
CP: The ring, of course, creates the warp-field which enables faster-than-light travel.
Hugo: Yes yes, of course. Quite ingenious, actually.
Hugo: How fast is this drive capable of moving us?
Panel 3
Another angle on CP and Hugo, where we can see Hugo casually touching one of the consoles with his hand.
CP: That is … classified.
CP: However, I can tell you that we generally cruise at about 200 times light-speed.
Hugo: That quickly, eh? Impressive.
