Lobotomy Core

Aiden’s world is torn apart when a catastrophic explosion devastates his city, separating him from Lila, the love of his life. Awakening in the surreal Otherworld, he learns that this realm is a patchwork of destruction and despair, where the fragments of things lost in the real world converge. At its heart lies Yggdrasil, the great tree of life that connects all worlds and timelines, threatened by the corruption of the Core—a manifestation of imbalance, rot, and despair. Guided by Sylva, a luminous being tied to Yggdrasil, Aiden wields the quill-sword, a weapon shaped by his imagination. Tasked with restoring balance to the Otherworld and reuniting with Lila, Aiden joins forces with Rowan, a fiery and skilled warrior, and Kieran, a stoic and loyal protector. Together, they face the Core’s shadowy agents, powerful manifestations of fear and despair that seek to corrupt Yggdrasil’s roots and spread their influence across all worlds.

This book is also known as: "How Programmers Turn a Crappy Game into a Timeless Classic with a Single BUG" Recently, the president of Nitiandang, Gu Fan, once again fell from grace due to a minor bug in his new game. As a top-notch designer in the industry, all of the games designed by Gu Fan have very distinct characteristics: At first, players felt that these games were monotonous, dull, and purely revolting garbage.

So, players once again launched a major debate over "whether this is actually a bug or a game mechanic." In response to this, Gu Fan clarified in an interview with all seriousness: "Hello everyone, I'm the game designer Gu Fan, but you can also call me by my English name: fan·gu (means rebel). "I want to reiterate firmly that these so-called 'core gameplays' were not part of our company's original design—they are bugs! It's just that we didn't fix them because the players liked them!"
