STORY BEHIND THE GAME
You fell asleep one night, in your own world. You woke up in this one. You don't know how, and you don't know why.
Here's what you do know: when you awoke, you found yourself atop a tower. Brilliant lights of orange and pink, purple and blue surrounded the tower on all sides. Fearful of these surroundings, you sought an entrance from the roof, down into the tower.
Since that time, you have come to believe that this tower exists in a void between all the worlds of the universe. It is the only thing that makes sense. Because everywhere you look, you see things or people that do not fit in your own world. Here, robots and rifles co-exist with swords and sorcery. Every animal that you have known from your own world seems to have its own anthropomorphic counterpart in this world. Here there are beings of pure light, and shields that speak to their masters. There are penguins in full chain mail, ancient beasts and dopplegangers, pirates and rotating walls. Carnivals and feasts and inns/hotels appear and disappear spontaneously, giving you the chance to eat well, get some rest and engage in some recreation with strangers from across the worlds. In short, here is... everywhere.
Nevertheless, you long for home, and every time you glimpse out a window of the tower and down to the surface far, far below... you see a familiar sight. The way home is down.
You have discovered that there is a portal on every level of the tower, and that using that portal is the only way that you can descend to the level beneath you. The problem is that the portal can only work for one being at a time, and then it is sealed for minutes, hours or sometimes even days.
With nearly a hundred flights left to descend, the competition to enter these portals can be fierce. Yet you remember your world and you long to return to it. The only way is down. The only way is through the portals.
