[ot][spam][fiction] Cyberpunk Video Game was: Morning Spam
by Undescribed Horrific Abuse, One Victim & Survivor of Many 03 Jan '25

03 Jan '25

We are thinking of making a point-and-click (or whatnot) video game, based on the experience of being Karl or his confused brainmind. Karl liked [oops universe changes if these games are written O_O] maybe something different will happen with this thread who knows! Anyway we were thinking maybe it could start a little like the matrix, where the main character is plugged into a massive machine (maybe from an AI takeover), and kind of wakes up [maybe inspired from what it's like as little neurons for a human to leave a computer and want to look at nature but not understand that they do]
