After failing to defeat the final boss for the hundredth time, he curses the game creators, only to find himself *reborn* in the game world. The catch?

Realm of The Cursed Prophecy isn’t just a game—it’s a battleground for control over fate, power, and destiny itself. Rylan must confront the one enemy he can’t escape: himself. Will he embrace the curse of becoming the dark Lord, or will he rewrite the prophecy and change the game forever?

Welcome to a planet without a horizon. The world is just architecture all the way down to a screaming CPU core—a colossal cage of skyscrapers built by a literal-minded AI that thought "Life" just meant filling buildings with "Self-Reporting Processes." Enter Rion: a vagrant robot built from scrap, recently fired for admiring glitches in the universe. In a city populated by anxious machines and overclocked physics, Rion has become an accidental debugger for reality. From hacking illegal sunsets to retuning lagging mechanical choirs, he’s wandering the vertical slums and finding creative workarounds for the Core's rigid logic. The system is profoundly broken, and a scrap-heap vagrant might be the only one capable of teaching this massive machine how to actually be a world.

The Little Engine That Would is a solarpunk reimagining of the classic children's fable, narrated by Unit 402, a sentient train. Unit 402 carries "tilted" passengers—individuals experiencing internal crisis—while monitoring their biometric stress to make micro-adjustments for their comfort. Although the passengers perceive the train as a tireless and self-sufficient monolith, its operation depends entirely on a hidden network of track sensors and human maintenance crews. The narrative replaces the "I think I can" mantra with "routing optimizations," focusing on a machine that provides safety and care for people who remain unresolved. By treating forward motion as a calculated practice of optimism, the train demonstrates that continuation is the only way belief travels.
