Plasmatic

Plasmatic is a virtual, utopian space into which our society has voluntarily moved. We wake up from it unexpectedly. Our goal is to repair the main simulation core of Plasmatic. The continuation of life lived in it before will not be possible without the reparation. We are helped to achieve the goal by the Plasmatic’s artificial intelligence called SPIRIT. During the game we slowly get to know the real intentions of our guide and we start to question the rightness of the goal we have to achieve. We are also becoming more and more aware of the fact that its implementation depends only on us.

Using our dexterity, logical thinking and the right tools we need to match colors of flying plasma balls into rotating batteries. To complete a certain level each battery must be fulfilled with the given color of plasma within specific amount of time. Only after refilling all batteries with the given color the timer will end the countdown and we will be able to proceed to the next level.

Along the way there are waiting for us many surprises such as additional tools or new systems of moving the plasma around. Each of them diversifies the gameplay by increasing the difficulty of a level provided to finish the challenge.

Our guide named SPIRIT will be leading us during the game. She is the voice of the artificial intelligence of the Plasmatic system. She will teach us to navigate in the area and also how to use all the tools provided. She is quite demanding… and can be blunt in her thoughts. However, we have a common goal which is just to repair the main Plasmatic core. If we achieve it, we will be able to regain access to the life we have lived before. Also the SPIRIT will not lose her own life. She cannot repair the parts of Plasmatic manually, but she has the “know-how” in this matter. We do not have the “know-how”, but we have two working hands. Therefore we have to get along with each other to be able to cooperate. This is the only way to achieve the common goal.

Plasmatic is a form of a manifesto of threats posed by the technology industry. It answers the question: how bad the society can become due to constant improvement of the technology industry?
