Welcome to the Big Bang Bar, where the playground of the ultra-rich spans whole solar systems. Follow a cyber-butterfly soaring over the devastation of a post climatic Earth, with strings attached! Watch a proud woman stranded in the pitiless Martian desert find her way out -- or die trying. Discover why an alien ship must keep eternally shifting its parts. Or would you prefer to jump a few billions years forward to witness the end of our universe?
