Dungeon Core Online – FREE!

James hates his real life. He spends his days being bullied in school, and at home he simply reads and plays games. The only thing he has to look forward to is immersion. When he is immersed in the virtual world he can be whatever, whoever, he wants: He can escape the world that has thrown him away.

As such, when a new game, Dungeon Core Online, comes out, James is excited to play. He immerses himself as soon as he can, but when he is set to create his character he is instead offered a different choice. Now, James is the Dungeon Core and he suddenly finds himself wielding more power, with more options, than he’s ever had before. The only downside… there are people in the real world who do anything, even kill, to gain the power of a Dungeon Core in the virtual world.

*Currently I am releasing 2 chapters a week, thanks to my Patrons who have reached my first Tier Goal! Next tier will justify me setting aside enough time to write 3 chapters a week! *

Thousand Tales: Extra Lives

The game “Thousand Tales” offers exciting features: the first true artificial intelligence, and for some players, the chance to have their brains permanently “uploaded” into its virtual world. Uploading offers ultimate luxury for the rich, survival for the dying, a haven for criminals — and for everyone, the chance to change and learn and make new things. As the price drops, the game’s influence grows, but so do the threats against it.

The digital world has magic, transformation, and adventure for its growing new community, but its AI and ex-human people need something more to be happy. Finding it will take them to strange places: a forgotten battlefield, a colony on the ocean’s surface, the Free State of Texas, the slums of India, and worlds that don’t even exist. Can this game become a new source of freedom for the people both inside and outside it? Get it free on Amazon today.

Everybody Loves Large Chests

Large chests are said to encompass all manner of hopes and dreams. Men covet them. Women envy them. But one fact holds true – everyone wants to get their hands on some big ones. The same holds true for one intrepid adventurer – a strapping young lad by the name of Himmel.

Armed with his grandfather’s trusty longsword and the dream of being the strongest, he sets out on the journey of a lifetime! It is sure to be a long and dangerous road, fraught with danger! And it all starts with a simple test – reach Level 5 in the dungeon called the ‘newbie zone’ and earn the right to become a full-fledged adventurer!

However, such things get hopelessly derailed when his adolescent mind beholds an exposed chest for the first time. A fateful meeting that would inevitably lead his life in a direction he never even dreamed of!

The Arcane Emperor by Aternus

Rainer, an amateur arcanist and college student, sought to create a new spell far surpassing the magic of the few he inherited from his grandfather. Yet the interference of an unknown event during the casting of his spell led him to be thrown through space and time.

Where status screens were accepted as normal and class distinctions were quite clear. Leveling and achieving a class beyond a simple farmer or peddler was an affair of life and death combined with years of hard training. Goblins were not the fodder that they should be, orcs filled bedtime stories in order to scare children into behaving, and a dragon? You might as well pack up and move to another country.

He, however, enters this world with the rare and powerful class of the Arcanist. How will the recently ardent seeker of magic find greater heights, or will he land in deeper depths?
