Synopsis
Way back in November of 2022, Delta and I had a brief conversation about how magnets affected old TVs. The next day, he sent me a custom-made shader that replicated the effect. I was so impressed that I decided to create a retro room to showcase it. Obviously that spiraled into something much bigger; though we had a goal early on. The player would 'reset' the world by replacing the broken bulb. Speaking of the broken bulb -- The idea is that you poked live electricity like a gosh dang fool, shocked yourself and became a sputtering mess on the floor. Everything that follows is a wild fever dream, where you reflect on things you had seen moments earlier. Or to put a more positive spin on it, maybe you just fell asleep on the couch and are having a nostalgic day dream.
