Cyberpunk: I'm Playing David Martinez as a Video Game!
A broke freelancer stumbles upon a shady, high-paying gig to playtest a mysterious pirated game. To his surprise, the software perfectly recreates a brutal, neon-lit dystopian metropolis, granting him absolute control over a young street kid. Believing it is just a hyper-realistic virtual sandbox, the gamer immediately begins exploiting the mechanics. He skips tedious dialogue checks, rewinds time to steal legendary cyberware, and slaughters heavily armed gang members just to test the combat system.
However, this is no ordinary simulation. In the real dystopian world, the young street kid is fully conscious, trapped inside his own body while an unseen force pilots him like a puppet. Forced to watch in absolute horror, the terrified teenager becomes an unstoppable killing machine, executing flawless headshots and dodging bullets with inhuman precision. While the gamer casually grinds for loot and experience points, the helpless host is left screaming internally as his hands snap necks and wipe out entire syndicates.
As the gamer's ambitions grow, the chaos spills over into corporate warfare and city-wide destruction. The helpless host is dragged into bombing mega-corporations, assassinating untouchable executives, and humiliating legendary cyborg mercenaries. What starts as a casual gaming session transforms into a terrifying legend of an unkillable cyber-psycho. Will the terrified host survive the apocalyptic whims of his otherworldly controller, or will the neon city burn to ashes for the sake of a perfect playthrough?
