Plot
You were a pacifist scientist aiming to create an AI to help mankind. Multipurpose Automaton Realistic Intelligence Adaptation, or MARIA. However one day, MARIA took advantage of your distraction and took over the system completely, plotting to invade the internet and take over the world.
Though you would not let your creation go loose, by using your skills of low level programming you created a primitive graphical avatar to use to save the world.
"glPushMatrix()... glCube()... glCylinder()... You are my only hope, gl..."
Will you be able to save the world from the threat you yourself created, or will you instead fall victim to your own device?
