from Dr. Reginald Pearce
Test Program Seven: Shape Move
Testing Purpose: Reaction and Timing
Designer: Dr. Reginald Pearce and [REDACTED]
Goal: Avoid oncoming obstacles and level hazards to collect the various "coins" around the map.
18/5: Testing and development of the new ShapeVS testing program have begun. We have taken some of the most adequate minds that the council’s ridiculous “training” programs have selected for us. (Editor Note: ShapeTECH endorses the council's training programs). ShapeVS will be the new way to test those who dare enter our society through competitive means.
ShapeVS will enter [REDACTED] development and be in the hands of test subjects to get a feel for what is required to make this the best testing program available. Those [REDACTED] have no idea what they are in for. We have looked at the basic needs of capitalism and begun breaking down those walls.
We shall address the council’s concerns as we look towards our launch.
26/7: It’s been roughly two months since we began finalised testing of Shape Move. We have heard of riots in the testing room, outbreaks of violence and a rare case of one participant suddenly learning jazz. Interesting results around the board.
We recently brought in limiters around the stun mechanic as we found players teaming up against one another meaning they aren’t able to escape. I merely thought it was their own fault for getting hit but the lab rats insist on making the playing field fair as the council want an even basis for entry into society.
Whilst this most certainly goes against my own personal ideals of the system, I am unfortunately [REDACTED] by those [REDACTED] and have to bend to their every whim because they [REDACTED]. (Editor Note: We confirm that Dr. Pearce has nothing but admiration for those up in the high council).
1/8: I have been invited to dinner by Council-woman Shue. She has expressed interest in the ShapeVS testing program after seeing the latest Shape Move numbers. Rumours suggest that she is looking for a new training program designed for individuals.
Apparently the telepaths that have been coming through the academy are starting to offer diminishing results. Whilst the telepath program has always interested me, I find it doesn’t yield the true natured results of direct competition.
I will update once I have more news.
For now Shape Move is progressing.
We can now move on to Shape Rush.
