Description

Consortium is a first person science fiction role-playing experience taking place on a massive futuristic aircraft. The story begins in the real world where the staff at Interdimensional Games have developed a satellite (iDGi-1) capable of opening a digital rift through time and space. Anyone can travel through this rift and awaken within an alternate dimension from our own - the "game world" - in the year 2042.

 

IMPORTANT INFO

The ending scene of the game is a bit broken in wine and PlayOnLinux. The game is completeable, but the screen will be totally black during the ending scene. To complete the game, follow these instructions:

As soon as you see the thing you're approaching at the end of the game come into view, remove your hand from the mouse. When you find yourself in the void, tap the D key a couple quick times (you don't spawn perfectly lined up), and then just hold W.

Aside from this, the game should perform fine. More information about the performance of the game under wine can be found here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/264240/discussions/0/613956964585243941/.
