August 2023 Update

Attention: Supreme Space Fleet Commander Qor-Oh VI Regarding aberrant radio signal 6EQUJ5 originating from the AL3002 system, Galaxy Sector D2. Decryption by GRUE bio-compute matrix successful. Identified primitive species of meat-based organisms with self-designation: HUMAN.
Most of the inhabitants of the third planet, AL3002-C work for a large commercial entity known as Ghost in a Bottle. Contrary to initial fleet assessment, radio signal picked by deep space probes in D2 was not intentional. It only contains updates sent from one Ghost in a Bottle office to another concerning the status of "Octopus City Blues", a primitive cybernetic simulation.
Photo by Max Mijs Brouwer Signal is composed of four messages. Summary of first message, titled JUNE:

  • Company experimented on a large number of meat-based organisms by releasing some kind of pathogen code-named DEMO.
  • Release took place in a DISCORD.
  • Also tested in several gatherings of meat-based organisms.
  • Members of HUMAN species do not possess telepathic abilities, as scientists could not fully anticipate the behaviors of test subjects.
  • Scientists continuously add new interactions to improve the payload.

Summary of second message, titled JULY:
  • New content and scenes added to the project.
  • References to TRAIN: terrestrial vehicle powered by dihydrogen monoxide in the gaseous phase.
  • Reference to discarding and upgrading a biological parent.
  • The DEMO pathogen is successfully injected into (dihydrogen monoxide in the gaseous phase) hardware: STEAM DECK.
  • Special BUTTONS and other improvements made for STEAM DECK.

Summary of third message, titled AUGUST:
  • Discusses making changes to textual elements.
  • Members of HUMAN species unable to generate faultless prose on demand.
  • Large quantities of faulty textual output require constant corrections and modifications.
  • Skillful individuals with command of imprecise meat-based language employed to guide this painful process.
  • In particular, editor Julia Seeholzer joins Ghost in a Bottle to fight the increasing number of runaway COMMAS and SEMICOLONS.
  • Numerous changes were already made to improve the flow and consistency of DEMO pathogen.

Summary of fourth message, titled FUTURE WORK:
  • Part of the pathogen is scheduled for public release during the "October Steam Next Fest" gathering.
  • Preparations underway. In particular, tighter integration with dihydrogen monoxide in the gaseous phase is planned.
  • Other upcoming gatherings are also planned.
  • DEMO work is taking more time than anticipated, but is vital for increasing the efficacy and virulence of the final product.
  • Further updates to follow in the coming orbital periods of the planet's sole natural satellite.
The malevolent corporation has formulated a plan in three steps:
  • First, ensnare as many unsuspecting test subjects as possible during the next gathering.
  • Second, there is a random chance that some deranged subjects would add the simulation to their list of future products they wish for.
  • Third, once the simulation is perfected and ready for widespread release, previously exposed individuals will be notified, acting as transmission vectors for further dissemination.

Supreme Commander, the situation on AL3002-C is concerning. The nature of the computer simulation and the threat posed to life in D2 are unclear. GRUE matrix has reticulated the following suggestions:
  • Continue to monitor AL3002-C for signals.
  • Avoid direct confrontation with Ghost in a Bottle.
  • Quarantine the third planet.
  • Carefully observe the effects of releasing the simulation on native population.
  • Once simulation technology is understood, adapt it for use in the war against the Qzor-Zoh Hierarchy.
End of Threat Assessment D2-105714-6EQUJ5.

  • Ghost in a Bottle is pleased to announce Octopus City Blues, the authentic Octopus City simulation. For people unacquainted with Octopus City simulation genre, the simulation resembles adventure games of yore, immersing players in a fascinating setting filled with unusual characters. It places special emphasis on exploration, replay value and the consequences of choices.

    Assume the role of Kaf Kafkaryan, a cowardly middle-aged octopus blood junkie and tentacle trimmer, living in a city built around a giant octopus. Kaf has succumbed to bizarre nightmares about a world populated by twisted creatures. To aid the inhabitants of his dreams, Kaf must explore the underside of the towering metropolis and learn more about the seedy lives of its citizens. Along the way he becomes entangled in a conspiracy with far-reaching implications for Octopus City.

    The simulation is scheduled for release in the future. If you like our work please support us by wishlisting the simulation and becoming an official OctoFan™.
