Plot

A military black project run by a secret space program called Aranea operates under an agreement between the human Earth government and an alien regime who use human beings for their nefarious purposes.

This group is run by a powerful extradimensional spider collective which is connected a broad genetic human family who is needed for a variety of resources. One of provisions that humans give off that is sought after by these quasi-real beings is an emotional energy called "loosh," which this alien consciousness is unable to create for themselves and is needed for their survival.  

The Aranea spider collective ritualistically exercises their specific motifs on their human pawns to bind them to the culture of the arachnid using advanced methods of mind-control and Satanism. Our characters learn about these methods and how Earth's society has these elements secretly bled into it in order to extract the loosh from these humans.

The story follows Rhys and Serisai; humans who are both involved in the program implicitly and explicitly. The story follows their lives as they work, embrace romance and learn about the paranormality of their lives. 

Gameplay

Loosh Grid tells the story through visual novel interactions and comic book-styled storytelling. There are small multiple choice puzzles and dialogue trees with other characters which offer a look at the ways that Aranea functions as a secret society as well as the general day-to-day lives of the people on Earth.
