Idea '55 - Atomic Destiny by Agavian, Vilturem

Summary
An alternate history of World War 2, semi based off of a Hearts of Iron 4 game I had back in late 2019. Shortly after I was browsing Reddit and saw a post on "Apollo-Punk" and wanted to create a world where an active space ecosystem was already ongoing by the mid to late 60s.
If this gets enough attention I will continue to the actual meat of the story, whereas this is pretty much just the appetizing back story, and even then an incomplete one.
The last time I worked on this according to Google Docs was Christmas day of 2021, but I wrote the bulk of it in March-April 2020, during the start of the very bad time.
If the text seems patriarchal it's from the perspective of a 70 year old in-universe Narrator writing this sometime between 1993 and 1996.

Summary
In New York City, in 2023, there were eight young men, three young women, two non-binary individuals, and one little boy that (almost) became historic. They were known as the Activism Based Community, or ABC Society for short, and that opportunity for an obscure French pun was not lost on several of the members.

Summary
This is a sequel to ‘One Way Trip’, so be sure to read that first. :)If ‘Life is Strange’ was their origin story, then ’One Way Trip’ was their re-awakening in an altered present. An introduction to new friends, hidden enemies. A journey to understand themselves, each other, and the world. A warning about the fate of humanity - and all life - if they don’t stand together. If they don’t find a way to become…more. And early power-ups for what lies ahead.
'Near Light' is the continued adventure of Max & Chloe, picking up where ‘One Way Trip’ left off… Armed with knowledge of an alternate future, expanding skills and powers, new allies and a budding empire, Max & Chloe stand between the hopeful present and a shadow future they know they can never allow.
