Whatever you were just doing, or just about to do, cut it out. Right this second. I have something much more important. This, my friends, is a glorious day. Words cannot express the pure beauty of this project, which has been resurrected from the dead, so I must stress that you check this game out. I was going to do my maximum once-per-day tumbl about my prom, which was two weeks ago this saturday, but this is EVEN MORE IMPORTANT.
The Nethernet is a steampunk RPG played through firefox. The Internet is the game’s world, and it is glorious. You leave puzzles, bombs, quests, portals, and more on webpages to mess up/enlighten anyone who happens to find the page. I could put a bunch of money on my tumblr, and leave a bomb on your tumblr to mess with you or your friends. I could also leave a portal on your tumblr to take you to my tumblr and enlighten you with something or another.
Now, the one caveat here is that in order to interact with the things other players have done, you have to have the toolbar installed at the moment. A bomb isn’t going to damage a character who doesn’t exist. Nor can I go around rickrolling anyone who happens to go to google, because they won’t see the portal if they don’t have the game installed.
I honestly can’t say anything to convince you if you haven’t already convinced yourself. If you can’t think of possible uses for The Nethernet, I’m afraid you can’t be saved.
I really don’t see what the big deal is. I’m on gamefaqs refreshing because some guy left “DP cards”, so I’m thanking him and getting the cards which gives me pings and money and it seems all I can spend the currency on is annoying others. I went through some guy’s portal and apparently got 200 DP for watching three videos about ninja cats.
The game’s incredibly slow and I just can’t seem to find the fun in it. I’m hoping you can guide me through tomorrow because I’m lost as to what I should really be doing. This must be how MonBre players felt. :(
