A haunted pizzeria. A digital universe. The fight for survival. I thought summer would be all about lounging around, eating pizza, and maybe—just maybe—finally finishing that messy game I’ve been coding. But instead, my half-baked code somehow gained sentience and opened a portal to the Net. The Net is a parallel universe powered by raw computing energy. Here, survival isn’t just about dodging the hostile Tier 5 AIs lurking beyond the city walls; it’s about mastering the System, a seemingly friendly Tier 5 AI who also happens to be our overlord. Every choice, every upgrade, could be the difference between life and permanent death. Now, I’ve got to figure out how to survive, manage a horror-themed pizzeria run by robots, and navigate a world where even the System’s own guides can’t agree on how to keep us alive. Welcome to my game—just try not to break it. And hey, enjoy the free pizzas while they last. ✦ . ⁺──────────·☽◯☾·──────────⁺ . ✦ ✦ . Weekly chapter of 2-3k words.✦ . Weak to strong✦ .
