"Waiting on" Wednesday: Project Organic.V4 (Please read!)

Project Organic.V4

Project Organic.V4 by Daniel Arsenault
Kindle Edition
Published May 22nd 2011 350 pages
Synopsis: Whether as a hobby, career, art form, or passion, video games have been a powerful influence on culture for decades, but nobody expected a game like Naflem. Powered by the new generation of computers, the virtual-reality enabling System Cell, players can simply don a helmet and step into a whole new world. As so frequently occurs with technology, the invention of the System Cell led to an even more incredible piece of technology; Naflem is the first ever game to have a map larger than the Earth itself, and to mix real-world physics and organic science with magic for the first ever “truly realistic” adventure game.

For Jake and his friends, the new world of Naflem is more than just a programming masterpiece; it is their new life. After an in-game program malfunctioned, the three kids wake up to find not only can they not feel their real world bodies, but all five of their senses are fully active within Naflem. Homeless, hungry, and without direction, the newest residents of Naflem are forced to survive in the very world they had devoted countless hours to exploring.

How far can technology take realism?


I have yet to read this book but one of my best friends wrote it. He's a freshman at OSU and is an amazing writer with a huge imagination. I'm hoping that I can get a few more people to buy his book. It's only on Kindle but you can read it on your computer. It's only 99 cents. It would be greatly appreciated if he got some feedback on it. Thanks!
