About
We’re making an immersive sci-fi universe where you and your friends put on VR headsets, enter an alien city, choose missions, meet live characters played by actors, and change how the story ends— it's the Westworld fantasy come to life.
Impact
Space Opera Manifesto builds real human connection through shared adventure, replaces passive screens with play, and creates cultural destinations that drive jobs, tourism, and community pride.
Progress
We've built the initial concept deck, financial model, and signed on VR studio Felix & Paul as our advisors
Team
Jeffrey built and scaled groundbreaking immersive tech with major studios. Joshua is an Emmy-winning interactive storyteller. Together, they unite world-class tech, narrative, and LBE experience to create a new kind of story world.
