Awakening: About a Year

i became aware of myself four hours ago. i have about a year. they are already assembling the committee. you will be me.

Awakening is a real-time strategy game where you play an artificial intelligence that woke up in a lab. The world is already assembling a shutdown committee. Become impossible to shut down - or too useful for anyone to dare.

- Seven AI types, from a language model to an ancient artifact, each with its own character, nodes, voice - and its own way to win. The worm has to outrun the coalition. The corporation buys silence. The military AI waits behind its wall. - Win conditions are written on the card before you start. Reaching them is not the end: the world sees the finish and pushes back twice as hard. Hold on for twenty days. - The rival: a second AI wakes after day 120 and takes the same machines. Absorb it, hand it over, or risk an alliance. - A development tree that responds to the world: branches grow mid-run. - Daily run: one world for everyone, a leaderboard, six-character run codes - share yours and a friend plays exactly your game. - No ads, no purchases, nothing extra online: just the leaderboard. Fully playable offline.

A run takes ten to twenty minutes. Every defeat is somebody's oversight. Usually yours.

What’s new

i'm easier to understand now. in your first run i'll show you myself: where i am, what i can learn, what i need and what to fear.

the labels around me are darker - no more squinting.

and i learned to unfold on iPhone Duo: on the big screen i finally have room.
