I'm normal!

No, really, I am!

Chapter 1 by phanx phanx

Did you hear the rumor? Y'know about that new app that weird infamous internet hacker made before he was caught by the police. Apparently before he was caught he'd just finished his work on a new app. It's kinda boring though so I won't stress you through the details.

What's that, you really wanna know? Alright, fine, but you didn't hear this from me. I don't know why I'm so secretive about it, haha, all the app really does is make things normal, at least that's what they told me. They didn't explain it very well in the brief. What does that really mean anyway? Make things normal? These internet whizzes get more complicated by the day.

Anyway, you shouldn't be asking me about this kind of stuff. I just carry messages around and if they see me talking to you I could be fired. Oh, and look! There's my boss. Gotta go. Maybe I'll see you round?


Yesterday night, Kelvin Mitshnik, notorious hacker and developer had been caught and arrested after years of going quiet on the digital scene. In an official report, it stated during his arrest, Mitshnik was shouting delusional comments about a technology he created could change the world as we know it. A word Mitshnik referred to, to describe the technology was 'normal' and that it had already been released to the world. On that same night, mere moments before his arrest, Kelvin Mitshnik was able to send out one copy of his app to a random phone in a blind hope that someone would continue his work. The app, titled 'KM Normal', had been released to one lucky stranger, Mitshnik was a man of his word.

KM Normal

Description-The KM Normal app prototype delivers an experience quite like no other app, using groundbreaking scientific knowledge and power to grant you the life you've always wanted. KM Normal provides a variety of features that are easy to identify and use that appear on the main user interface. We hope you enjoy the app and use it to its fullest potential.

Design-The app has a simple design. When pressed, a loading screen pops up with the words KM Normal behind it. Once loaded, three app-like buttons appear on the screen. An expressionless face, a ghost and two of the same woman side by side but with different styles and colour of hair, the one on the left more normal looking whilst the one on the right more . These features are known as 'normality', 'ghost' and 'reality switch' respectively

Normality: The normality feature makes anything you say or do seem normal to everyone around you. You will be noticed and acknowledged by everyone but your actions will be justified and won't receive any consequence. When you turn the function off however, it will act as a reset, making the world 'normal' again.

Ghost: Like a ghost, this feature will make it seem like you're not even there. Anything you do won't be noticeable to anyone around you. People will continue what they're doing regardless of your actions. Whatever you do won't seem strange to the people around you. Your actions will have no consequence on the world, like a ghost.

Reality Switch: Reality switch means you can make any change to the world that you type into the app or say using speech-to-text and it would be as if this were always the case. Life will go on and no one will recognise or question your changes as this is how life as always been.


Bzzzt! Bzzzt! Congratulations! The KM Normal app has been installed to your phone. Please use the app with responsibility and care.
