Would you like to reset the game and try again? ] "A game?" I laughed. Blood spilled out of my mouth and ran down my neck. "I don't know if this is some weird near-death hallucination… but if I have a chance to reset everything and save everyone I cared about… of course, I damn well accept." [ Reset in progress. ] [ Beginning Round 2. ] [ … ] [ Error. Partial Player. ] [ … ] [ Active Players: 0.4 ] ** If you're looking for a story with a MC who starts out very strong or very clever, this ain't it. Luca is neither. Luca is weak AF and... an idiot. ** Luca will also die. A lot. It's a time-loop story. But with enough game resets (ahem, deaths), Luca will learn and grow, so there's hope for him yet. ** This is a slow-burning and character-driven novel. It's also going to be long.
