It was New Year’s night, and the year was now 2028. And there I was, programming my new game Bananas Sometimes. It was about a hero named Anjury Boi and his sidekick Mucho Daniels, who was kidnapped by the evil Easter Gummy Drop. Alright, back to the story. You would think that we had hovering cars and all that, but we don’t. The end of the world has come.
