October 12, 2032, the game "Project Overworld" would release its first server to the public.
Developed by the company "Advanced Simulations", this game aims to exploit the technologies behind virtual reality devices in order to simulate an entire universe.
The players would all spawn on the same planet and try to survive with or against other players while building up stocks of resources and defenses.
Eventually, they would be able to progress and exploit different resources to create technologies ranging from simple wooden spears to actual space rockets.

Project Overworld

Hiring some volunteers to help him distribute the rocket engines, it took a bit over half an hour for everything to be ready. In the meantime, the various surveillance cameras posted around the arena allowed Keith to make sure no one would be cheating and working on their device before everyone was served.

'Several thousand people gathering at the same place sure is something impressive.' Keith realized. He had already organized an event of similar size before, not to mention the large guild war he had witnessed from afar back when the server just started running, but it got him every time still. In any case, the young man had to keep his cool and make sure the recruitement session would unfold as planned.

- "Everyone should have been given a rocket engine by now, so let the first test begin!" He exclaimed using a microphone.
