The year is 3027. You're an artificial intelligence developer who's consciousness has been transferred to the first ever robot, human hybrid drone. This drone has been sent to Planet X017-5713. Scientists back on Earth detected an energy pulse much more powerful than anything we've ever detected, or can even comprehend. The power outputted by every supernova ever recorded still isn't even comparable to the energy output recorded on Planet X017. Your goal is to explore the planet, locate the cause of this energy pulse, then transmit this information back to Earth.
Upon further investigation you begin to discover that the energy pulse, X017, and even the entire universe may not be as it seems. The energy pulse is so powerful that it seems to be causing glitches. The only problem is that these glitches aren't occurring in the drone. They're occurring in reality itself.
