›Story
You are ego, a disembodied consciousness.
You've been downloaded to an evacuated retro-tech space dock where a mind-altering virus has infected the consciousness ctrl stream.
Even if you eventually manage to remedy that spot of bother, who are you and where did you come from?
And why are the CATs talking to you?
The only way to find out is to debug yourself.
Debug your own mind.
Debug your ego.
