ODDMENTS

8.6 light years away on the brightest star in our night sky, we find a magical synthesized light being named GAMUT. This extraterrestrial has the power to bend starlight into an infinite amount of colors and is able to retroject themselves into an infinite amount of copies. ODDMENTS gives us a peek into the traditions, relationships, and surprises of their world.
