As featured in Outright's presentation, Supernova is a third-person action-adventure game using the characters and setting from the Paramount / Nickelodeon series aimed primarily at kids but starring Kate Mulgrew as Captain Kathryn Janeway from Star Trek: Voyager. Well, a hologram of Janeway, at least, but Mulgrew is contributing her voice for the game as well, as is the rest of the original cast.
The game is set approximately one-quarter of the way through Season One of the show and features local co-op play for two players controlling the characters Dal and Gwyn as they journey across three "very different" planets. You'll apparently be able to explore and customise your ship, the Protostar, as you puzzle and phaser your way to saving your friends, your ship, a whole bunch of aliens, and a planetary system before its sun goes — you guessed it — supernova.
