PlotA talented but thwarted computer programmer discovers that a powerful corporation has been stealing his software designs. He infiltrates the company’s systems to find proof and becomes entangled in a conflict between corporate control and the emerging autonomy of programs. Using clandestine hardware and subversive code, he is forced into a desperate gambit that results in his consciousness being digitized and projected into a vast, anthropomorphized digital environment where programs resemble people and obey rigid hierarchies. (en.wikipedia.org)
Inside the electronic realm he allies with a security program created to police the system and a small band of rebellious programs who resist domination by a central, authoritarian control. They must navigate surreal arenas, confront engineered enforcers, and exploit the system’s rules to search for the evidence that will expose theft and restore balance. The story sets up a struggle of human creativity against machine enforcement and frames a visual, game-like world where every contest is coded, every victory follows protocol, and escape depends on outthinking the architecture that contains them.
