Networked

the long version

A different way of life. A totally new form of existence. All it takes is one step. Nick and Dan are two people who need their lives to change. Exhausted, broke, and cracking under the pressure of trying to hold everything together, it begins to seem like there is no end in sight. Until the video game they’ve spent two years developing mysteriously disappears to be replaced with something new, something better, something finished. But soon their decision to release the strange new game lands them in a situation more desperate than ever. Because the game is not content to simply be played. It wants to change, it wants to grow. Soon it evolves into something far beyond their understanding; something dangerous and unpredictable, an unstoppable force which could change the course of human life, forever.
