Disgraced video game streamer Commander Zideo moved back home after losing everything. But he didn't count on getting sucked through his computer monitor into a digital world where ALL video games coexist—barely.
The refugees of the digital apocalypse are hanging by a thread in the last free city, Ludopolis. In order to save the city from a coalition of video game bosses in return for passage home, Commander Zideo must take on every genre of game he has bested in his former physical life... beginning with platformers. Also, it's narrated by his dog, Cormac McBarky.
Commander Z and the Game Fellows is a gamelit comedy that may or may not be inspired by certain video game cartoons from the late 1980s.
