gamer time

had an awesome dream where me and a group of other people were trapped in a game for the entertainment of an evil scientist who was like the doctor from boom beach. There he convinced us that there was a way out from this place, an outside world, which turned out to be a false world created to give us a sense of hope and keep playing. The world was a simulation of multiple pop culture and otherwise worlds with areas built for saiyans, kinnikuman, and all kinds of other stuff. One of the main areas was a supermarket constantly being swarmed with zombies by the outside, supplies being transported by a group of female npc's who drove these massive towers to the edge of the playable area where an "Exit" was.

Turns out that the game was originally created using the framework from an ancient arcade cabinet made by a forgotten game company said to have contacted hell to make it's game. The guy used it's tech to create master control weaponry and defenses that would allow someone to conquer any task and put the coding for the game in the console meant for his son. Meanwhile the Doctor Guy secret took it over from the other master console and trapped all the parents and crew that helped create the game, including myself, as well as the children who got taken to the hospital unbeknownst to the doctor. There we were trapped for years, kept alive intravenously through the machines the doctor had prepared beforehand.

It was almost impossible to defeat the doctor as he had backup plans upon backup plans and was conniving and clever, managing to stop every plan for freedom we came up with, which we didn't know was because he had hacked into our heads and monitored us constantly. Eventually a time came where we were all trapped due to a self-aware zombie infestation which had spread to the "Real world" outside the doctor's control, using this we managed to wrest control back from the doctor and seal him within his own pocket realm, it took months for all of us to recover but I was chosen to create a mental clone to stay behind and guard the game after we made sure to find his plans and create counters or undo every single one of them. I was left in the game as a mental clone, a new master fo the gaming world and all it's NPC's and new players who were no longer trapped within the game.

some other details include the father and son having access to an "Auto Mode" that would create a near unbreakable shield meant for surviving in really high level areas. After everyone had died in game, all of us being taken to a hub area where we used EXP gained during the game to gain new passive skills as well as choose who we wanted to be for the next iteration, a plan that backfired where we convinced the doctor's right hand man to help us escape, and the zombies being a mixture of every type of gaming zombie but mostly made up of Plants VS Zombies zombos.
