Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Story: 2023 - The super-cooperation seized the www with their AI. Escape seems hopeless... but you (the player: a tech savy hacky-guy) found the Goldkarpfen. Analyse the program and find the first node of the gk-network. Jump from node to node to find the exit node to escape the hypnotic power of the superAI.

HUGE payoff in the late game!

This is definitly different from any other sandbox style game: it's a coders playground, fully open source and every part of it is hackable (even during runtime). There are many examples how to create own subgames with items, game-money, aso. - but one thing it is not: a good blogging system. (excuse my style, but i thought the users would appreciate some irony in these humorless times 😉)

the game world is quite small at the time, which makes it easier to reach the exit-node - but there is a clear path: if you get there you will get it...
