Artisans, dancers, musicians and cooks: the people who carry a culture forward become the protectors of its future.
The world of ANTARA
Craft, rhythm
& other futures.
The story
In a colonial India that has forgotten its own genius, a dancer and her son race the Empire to ancient flying machines woken only by dance, music and dreams.
Rhythmic
Adventure.
Music and movement are ways of knowing this world.
Listening, learning and responding are central to the game we are developing.
Listen, learn, awaken
Solve shrine puzzles through musical patterns and dance-inspired game mechanics.
Explore and evade
Explore a vibrant world, uncover side quests and misdirect the Empire.
Jeymi & Ramanujan.
Jayalakshmi Eshwar
Jeymi is “played” by Bharatanatyam artist Jayalakshmi Eshwar. Her production Antariksha Sanchar seeded this world; her practice shapes its movement, gestures and emotional language.
Srinivasa Ramanujan
The son is a fictional tribute to mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887–1920). The connection between dreams and his discoveries inspires ANTARA’s story of knowledge and flight.
