How It Begins
Your favorite uncle, Uncle Floyd, is eager to show you his latest invention. However, you didn't expect that he and his assistant, Gilby, would strap you into a weird chair and jolt you out of your body.
You regain consciousness, but all your senses are muted, and your body, from what you can see of it, is a metal pyramid with four arms with grippers instead of hands. You've been interfaced into a backup robot unit!
After a huge argument with your uncle, Gilby agrees to take you home to "fix things", but once you arrive in his living room, he informs you he's fed up and is going to find another job in the morning. But first he's going to sleep. He locks the door and takes the keys with him to his bedroom. He's not going to help you at all! So now what?
