This first person shooter game takes place in the world of the internet. A frantic and deranged loner is sucked into the world of his internet, and faces the now physical challenge of deleting his history. The dark and sometimes perverted entities that exist in his history come to life and he ventures the internet in search of total annihilation before the FBI scan his history. Illegal downloads, dodgy porn sites, and even funny cat videos all come to life and are characterized into living enities that rush towards the player in a pixelated environment that forms as the player runs across it.

The player has guns that do damage in stylized reflections of a computer, eg) 'The Point & Click' - a gun that fires an array of mouse cursors that stun the enemy and temporarily slow them as the cursors push them back. Another gun is 'The Recycler' - a laser with a long reload time and small ammo clip but completely wipes enemies in one shot, as it sends enemies to a recycle bin that vanishes forever.

The FBI are onto the player as the player takes on the role of a semi anti-hero, he is a lone and deranged individual with hacking technology beyond the modern world. The player uses a sort of 'Animus' like machine (from Assassins Creed) to delve into the world of his internet and take on the cyber demons of his mind. The game takes a look at self-reflection and puts the player in the role of someone completely different to themselves, this would provide a different type of playstyle, almost in the same sense as games such as Postal.

As this theme is quite deranged and has the potential to explore darker ideas and settings, I'd love for enemies and environments to be based off characters from the DOOM franchise. Doom mixes the elements of horror and first person shooter/action to compliment the games and really push the boundaries as to what is actually plausible in a game.
