Knight of Twilight

Virtual reality

I'm sitting on my plastic chair totally mind blown, I didn't get this much shock when I heard the price my game was supposed to sell for.

This was a part of the partnership contract right in front of me, the company Mr Dave worked with was gonna turn the game into a vr game.

I'm not talking vr like wearing glasses and Jumpin around, it was an immersive, full dive experience with your consciousness being project led into the game.

Technology had come a long way and the line between imagination and reality was really blur in this generation. But I had thought it would be a couple more years before vr would advance to this stage hence my absolute shock, and the fact that my game was gonna be one of the first to become a full dive vr got me on cloud 9.

Click!!! With a flash of light out of nowhere I regained my senses, this bastard just took a picture of my stupifide expression.

" Hahahah... You should have seen the look on your fa.... Oh wait you can"

And with that said he turned the phone around, showing me a picture with a person closely resembling a monkey that smoked c***k for the first time. I'll just pretend I don't know who that is to protect my dignity.

But vr bro for real, thats just f*****g amazing!! I tell at the top of my voice.

"Better believe it bro, Mr Dave said they actually had this tech in hand for couple years now, they just didn't release it because of their head engineer, he was a bit of perfectionist.

So he deemed our game perfect for the launch?

" Nope, be said the game needs a lot fine tuning and that the Monsters looked like trash, and he said the music and some of the sound effects you used would have warranted a copyright infringement.

Come on I was only using the basic tools available, and how would know about copyright in music? It's supposed to be free, I suddenly don't like him so much.

" Don't worry about it, the company is gonna call in the professionals for that, he did say the mechanics were nothing short of marvelous not to talk about the destiny engine and currency system"." The game is gonna break the world view of video games".

Oh he is a pretty cool guy after all.

Ace "..."

"Anyways were going to Singapore".

Another bombshell, this isn't good for my heart at all.

When are we leaving? With an unhealthy amount of anticipation.

"Well about that......"

It's been 6 months since we got the partnership contract and ye I'm already in Singapore. In fact I've been here for 5 months now.

Ace and I didn't have international visas and that why we spent almost 2 weeks getting everything processed, talk about a slow process. Oh well it's Nigeria anyways, what would you expect.

Right now I'm sitting on very cool looking Chair with a huge screen in attached to the wall just 20 inches above my desk.

The screen was about 70 inches wide and was evenly split into 4 parts, this was to help me track different parts of the game I was personally working on.

This was my office in Apex technologies, the very company we had a partnership with. We were given a 3 bedroom apartment and two cars, we had different chauffeurs causes we didn't have licences to drive on our own. Not that I knew how to drive anyways.

Anyways Ace was always out and about,doing something I can't remember even tho he told me while I'm mostly here in the office guiding the remaking of the game.

There wasn't really much change to my original game design. They only changed like every f*****g thing for the "aesthetics" he said," your NPCs look like a 3 year old drew" them he said. I do not like that chief engineer guy.

Asides from brutally criticising my art, the game has become something even better than I had imagined. Plus the currency system was finally set.

Rebirth online as we had decided to name it, had a crypto currency system. This means that every in game coin a player picked up could be withdrawn into thier real life digital currency wallet.

This would make the game stand out even more since players could make cool cash by playing the game, and the rebirth coins crypto currency would also become more popular and in high demand. Killing 5 birds with one stone...... Don't know why I said that.

Looking at my screen I'm convinced that the game is ready for launch and as of on cue chief engineer Jerad Ben knocks on my door.

Good afternoon sir Jerad I greet .

"Good after Divine" he replies with eyes fixed on my screen, curious guy.

"Did you find any more things to work" he asks but what he means is actually " isn't it time to launch yet?, our competitors might release something before we do at this point".

Not to worry sir the game is ready to launch, we can give her to the world now I replied mimicking ace's sheepish smile. I just look very annoying right now.

"That's just beautiful, we will officially release her on 07 of February, thats in a month's time"

Huh? Will that be enough time to get enough people to play? Wasn't a month too short for advertising?

" We have been advertising her since months back, you would know that if you actually paid attention in board meetings".

I swear I could see him roll his eyes.

Well whatever, I'm about to play the best game the world has ever seen, I refuse to be a beta tester for the game cause I didn't want to ruin the surprise and fun. I know I was the major developer of the game but you to remember that even I dont remember how big the forgotten shores really are. And ye that's the name of the chain of islands in the game, they have individual names but together they were just called the forgotten shores. My naming sense make me wanna cry at times.
