Reality Speedrunner: Exploiting the World's Bugs for Billions
By @john1208
Vannis is drowning in medical debt, scrubbing the rain-slicked streets of Ostrag just to afford his next meal in a coffin-sized pod. His bleak life shatters when he trips over a curb and accidentally falls through the pavement, awakening the [QA Tester System]. Reality, it turns out, is a poorly coded simulation - and Vannis just got the debug menu. Now, the System assigns him bizarre, highly specific missions to trigger reality-breaking exploits. By walking backward into a bank wall while holding a frozen fish, he no-clips into the vault. By dropping a gold coin and catching it on the exact frame it hits the ground, he triggers an infinite money duplication glitch. With every successful exploit, Vannis’s life transforms, trading his squalid pod for a penthouse in the elite Vysoka Spire and hoarding impossible wealth. But treating life like a broken video game has lethal consequences. The universe’s ‘Devs’ - terrifying, eldritch entities known as the Patchers - are noticing the anomalies. As Vannis glitches his way to the top of society, they are rolling out lethal updates to delete him. Can Vannis hack his way to absolute power before reality itself patches him out of existence?
