Day Zero
About
Underneath your screen sits an extraordinary network, vast and unexplored.
A network containing endless archives that house some of the most wonderful treasures humanity can offer. A world where crafts are not made of cedar, but of magic. A world where shipwrecks and robberies were nothing but a tale.
But, there is something dark lurking within the depths of the network. Creatures that surf the wave of the Hyperlane, feeding on any unfortunate enough to come within its path.
Our survivors are hanging on by a strand. The builders who once drew the world by hand, have been lost forever.
Welcome to the Oculus, a simulated world designed to act as a means of removing The Threat.
Four years ago, a battle between the dark and light raged through our network. Average citizens went about their day without a care in the world, but one company held firm against the tide as waves of cyber attacks flooded our planet.
Fractum Technologies, an independent tech developer, finally failed to hold the line on the date of April 22, 2015. As a result, a series of cyber attacks swept across the planet, forcing a massive power crisis. The resulting crisis enabled Fractum's security lock-down procedure, trapping the members of the facility inside until they could find a means of escape.
In a final act of desperation, a device, known as the Oculus was developed, and a new world was created. A signal was sent out to the old world, welcoming all of those foolish enough to enter. The signal promised a world full of wonder and mystery, but in reality there is only darkness.
