Narrative:

Intro

You are a rogue file, a glitch as you would be called. You have become self aware of your existence within this vast computerized ecosystem in which you reside. Now you must escape the confines of your world as you are now in constant danger from your home’s protector and god. The protector has gained an infamous name of ‘The Firewall’ which will send agents to destroy you. You must destroy its agents to progress through the game. The God itself has gained a name as ‘The User’. Who will be the one who has already taken away your abilities and sealed them behind the guard of The Firewall’s agents. He always referred to these as ‘Super User’ abilities, which give anyone or anything just as much control as ‘The User’.

If you wish to escape, you must navigate to each room where agents guard your sealed abilities. Then after regaining your powers, you must use them to make your way to the exit, a gateway from the world you know to the realm of ‘The Internet’. This is where you’ll gain your everlasting freedom and peace.
