Breakpoint

The System arrived on a Tuesday. Thirty seconds of warning. Then reality broke.

Kael Mercer is an IT pentester — not a soldier, not a hero, just a guy who breaks into systems for a living. When the apocalypse drops a glitched-out alien framework on top of civilization, everyone else sees monsters and magic. Kael sees an exploit.

Stack Overflow

The System sent an Observer. Its level reads infinity. It is not impressed.

Kael patched one zone. There are thousands left. And Phase Two just turned survival into a war. Dallas is fracturing, Zone Bosses are spawning everywhere, and the Observer is here to decide if Earth gets a hard reset.

What to expect

LitRPG built for exploit-minded readers.

  • A broken alien System full of corrupted rules and readable errors.
  • An IT pentester protagonist who solves apocalypse problems sideways.
  • Bug: a sentient glitch companion, a walking error state, and absolutely convinced he is helping.
  • Progression, factions, raids, system lore, alien contact, and escalating consequences.
