Abstract

This study aims to describe the types and forms of person, spatial, and temporal deixis in the dialogues of the Indonesian video game A Space for the Unbound, Chapter Prologue: Atma. The study is grounded in the significance of deixis as a contextual marker that connects utterances with speakers, addressees, places, and time in speech events. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method. The data consisted of words, phrases, and sentences in the game dialogues and narrative that contained deictic elements. The data were collected through observation, note-taking, and documentation techniques, then classified according to the types of deixis and analyzed based on the context of utterance. The findings reveal 221 deictic data, consisting of 157 person deixis, 47 spatial deixis, and 17 temporal deixis. Person deixis includes first-, second-, and third-person forms; spatial deixis includes locative and demonstrative forms; while temporal deixis includes past-time and present-time markers. These findings indicate that deixis functions not only as a referential marker but also as a device that builds dialogue cohesion, clarifies spatial-temporal orientation, and strengthens character relationships within the game's narrative structure.
