Technolike

The Cleaner is a robotic vacuum cleaner-like device used for security. Although it resembles a robotic vacuum cleaner in shape, it is not one. When security is threatened, it can shoot drivers (in the form of red crossed-out circles) and also sprout two iron arms and four wheels. The captain attempted to plant the Cleaner in the Wiki library after a massive malfunction, but it was destroyed.

In the real world, there's a Technolike building. From there, the developers maintain surveillance. Guest passes are available at the entrance, where you'll be greeted by five motionless holograms of the Idols. The Technolike archive is also located there; the door is password-protected. Entering the password, however, unlocks the archive and its contents. Shelves containing what appear to be servers, guarded by drones and Cleaners, are arranged throughout. In the center is the archive control panel. Technolike's Chief Developer is Viktor Vyazemtsev, Max Vyazemtsev's father. He wears glasses, a green sweater, and pants. His hair is beige. However, according to Anya Titova, Technolike was invented by her parents, who were accused of stealing Technolike's code and are therefore considered criminals. However, Anya Titova claims, arguing that the video evidence was generated by AI and is unrealistic. The building also contains a developer's room with desks, computers, and large hexagonal screens for monitoring Technolike.

Idols don't move on foot. They create portals (except Like). Captain can create a white portal in the shape of a doorway, Vicky can create a white portal in the shape of a cylinder pointing upward, Happy can dig holes in the floor and teleport through them, Ban can create a green, transparent hexagonal sphere around himself, and Like has her own flying device in the shape of a heart that you can stand on and fly.

Technolike is a digital metaverse and social platform that is the main setting for the animated series of the same name. The action takes place in the near future, in 2047. This is a virtual world where users in the form of avatars communicate, compete and strive for popularity, obeying a strict system of rules controlled by Artificial Intelligences (Idols).

General description

Technolike is a large-scale, brightly designed digital universe in the style of eclecticism with a predominance of techno. The main purpose of staying in it for many is to gain popularity, measured in likes.

Rules and mechanics of

Avatar

In short, an avatar is a skin of a person in Technolike, which can be changed.

Economy and rating

The main currency and measure of success in Technolaika are likes. Likes can be spent on room upgrades, skins, vehicles, or games. There are also Super Likes, which are equal to 10,000 regular likes, which are given away by the Like idol.

The user's rating determines his social status and open opportunities (access to locations, items, clothes). There are 5 levels in total:

Beginner (1) - low rating, the owners of which are often offensively called "low-rating".

Creator (2) — achieved by accumulating 1,000 likes. At this level, all public sandbox locations are unlocked, and most users stop here.

Media person (3) — high rating, opens after 100,000 likes.

Star (4) - Ultra-high rating for the elite, requiring 1,000,000 likes. Gives access to all locations and skins without restrictions.

Idol (5) is a level that is inaccessible to humans, belonging only to AI algorithms.

When the rating increases, likes do not burn out, but remain the user's capital. Only the idol Like or Ban for breaking the rules can downgrade the rating.

Idols and control

Direct control is exercised by Idols, self-learning AI algorithms. They live in the huge castle of the Likes. There are 6 Idols in modern Technolaika.

Key locations Technolike

grows in breadth, and the closer the location is to the center, the richer and more honorable it is.

Star and Heart: At the center of the world is the Star, the control point of the metaverse. Inside it is hidden the sacred place of the Heart, where the Source Code is stored. Only Idols have access there.

Shared Space: A network of roads to move around. You can get around on foot, by private transport or by "Bubble" (public transport costs 1 like).

Trend River: A digital flow that originates in the Like room. An analogue of the "wall" in social networks, where the most popular posts get. The dream of all beginners is to get there for a quick level.

Cart: Landfill and sewerage Technolaika. The River of Trends flocks there. 30 days after being placed in the Recycle Bin, everything is permanently deleted, except for avatars and Idols. Rosa also lives there.

User Rooms: There are private (by invitation only) and public (open or in the form of matte cubes).

Idol Locations: Unique locations such as the Likes Palace (only levels 3 and 4 are allowed), the Wiki Mod Library, and the Ban Security Center.

Library:In the Wiki library,

instead of shelves with books, there are large purple computer folders, 3-4 avatars wide and 2 high. Each folder has several departments. You can open them (like bedside tables, they open), take out the desired file and read it.

Wasserman is one of the most colorful and memorable characters of Technolike. Although he can initially be mistaken for a background character, he takes an active part in the metaverse and regularly interacts with key characters.

Appearance
The main and most recognizable feature of Wasserman is an old CRT TV (monitor) instead of a head.
On the TV screen, instead of a face, a multi-colored test table (TV signal setting) is constantly lit.
On top of the configuration table, a neon green "error" inscription is displayed.
He wears a dark sweater, a bright yellow jumpsuit with pink suspenders, and massive futuristic light green pink boots with crosses.

Wasserman is not a standard artificial intelligence — he is a full-fledged, lively and eccentric character ("TV-head") within the Technolike digital space. His "buggy" appearance is directly related to his behavior, as he often finds himself at the center of system glitches and important events of the series.
Despite
the appearance of the "TV-head" character and the constant inscription "error" on the screen, Wasserman has a surprisingly stable and balanced character. He always keeps the situation under complete control and demonstrates absolute confidence in his actions and words. His manner of behavior, style of dress and prudence create the image of an ironic, but extremely reliable senior student or student.
Wasserman openly shows kindness and at the right moments can be incredibly sweet, sympathetic and caring towards those who are dear to him. In dangerous situations, he is ready to stand up for others without hesitation, showing firmness and inner strength. This combination of unwavering stability and genuine warmth makes him one of the most reliable characters in the chaotic world of the metaverse.

The Club "Nirazu_Unliked" or the Club of the Never Liked is a place in Teznolayka. You can enter there by telling the security guards the password "12345678qwerty". In the club itself, there are those avatars that have never been liked. They want to cancel the Idol Like, arguing that the popularity of the avatar in Technolike because of it is directly proportional to hypocrisy, arrogance, and other bad traits.

Interesting Facts
Wasserman openly has romantic feelings for Rosa.

His famous "Error" inscription on the TV screen has a visual secret: at a certain angle or mirroring, it resembles the system digits "10113".

Wasserman expresses obvious contempt for Lyke and treats her with extreme disdain.

He has the unique ability to take full control of his screen, casting any images or even changing the video sequence on his own TV.

He is a member of the club "Nirazu_unliked".
He has deep analytical knowledge and is perfectly versed in the mechanisms of metaverse laiconomics.
He is very popular in the media space - he regularly becomes the main character of various interviews and reports.

Megawing is a Technolike character, a popular user of the metaverse of the same name.
A popular blogger on Technolike, who actively monitors ratings and community opinion. Mega Wing intertwined with Annette through its influence on her reputation and ranking on Technolike: its actions and the community's opinions directly reflected in how users perceived her, creating pressure and pushing her to take action in response. Like other local celebrities, Megawing has a high avatar rating - it belongs to the 4th (Star) level.
Character
Megawing is an ambitious, daring, and confident character. He is used to being the center of attention and makes sure that his opinion and influence are felt by everyone. He subtly feels the mood of the audience and knows how to use it to his advantage, often manipulating the popularity and reputation of other users.
Because of his public stance and constant monitoring of ratings, he may be intolerant of the mistakes and failures of others. His attitude towards Annette manifests itself in criticism and pressure when her actions affect the opinion of the community. Despite this, Megawing is cautious in personal contacts and rarely reveals true emotions, preferring to keep his distance and maintain the image of an influential blogger.

The appearance of
the Megawing Avatar in Technolaika is distinguished by a bright and memorable appearance. He has warm orange-peach skin and narrow purple pupils. On the face there are always large pink-crimson glasses with sharp "cat" corners.
His hair is short and voluminous, dark purple with cool indigo blues. The strands are laid upwards to create an expressive silhouette. On the front there is a contrasting yellow strand in the shape of a zipper, which stands out against the background of the main hairstyle. The temples are shaved and covered with a fine dotted pattern. A thin neon yellow curl rises above the forehead, resembling an antenna.
The Megawing creates some skin elements and is the "Art Property of Teznolayk".

Connie is a secondary avatar (account or skin) of Omgus from Technolike, a popular extreme star in the metaverse of the same name. Like other local celebrities, Connie has a high avatar rating - he belongs to the 4th (Star) level.
Connie has a very active virtual life and has her own loyal fan base. In the Technolike metaverse, he became famous for participating in various sports competitions and demonstrations, as well as creating entertainment content - he records and uploads funny videos. In addition, Connie actively works as a blogger, covering all significant events and events taking place in Technolike.

Avatar
Connie's appearance
in Technolaika has a bright and expressive appearance. He has fair skin and large eyes with green-turquoise hues. On the face there are transparent glasses with an unusual angular shape and a slight blue tint. His hair is short and voluminous, dyed in neon shades of green and blue. The strands are styled to the sides and upwards, creating a dynamic silhouette. On her head, she wears a dark hat with ears and a glowing earring on one ear.
He wears a top with mesh sleeves and a star pattern on the chest, short shorts with a contrasting plaid pattern and chunky boots with bright inserts. The look is complemented by fingerless gloves and glowing details on clothes and accessories.

Dina Kuznetsova, known under the nickname Directis and Anonymous_36, is a classmate of Anya Titova and Max Vyazemtsev. In the real world, she is the head of the school, who is humiliated even more than Anya; in the metaverse - a mysterious hacker who has set the goal of destroying the Technolike system.
Dina is the head of the class. In the school hierarchy, her status is even lower than that of Anya: she is not just laughed at or ignored, but openly mocked. She transferred this feeling of powerlessness and anger to the virtual world, creating the alter ego of Anonymous_36. One day, it is she, hiding behind an anonymous avatar, who manipulates Annette, forcing her to enter the viral code into the library, which led to the appearance of Ban and the chain of events that ended with Max's ban.

Max:
Max (real name Max Vyazemtsev) is one of the key characters of Technolike, a popular user of the metaverse of the same name.
He is the son of one of the developers, however, despite this, he does not have any privileges and exists in the system on a common basis. His fate is unexpectedly intertwined with Annette after he is accidentally banned due to her actions.

Character

Max is a cheerful, optimistic and creative character. He has a good sense of humor and usually looks at life from a positive side. However, he is chronically unlucky - bad luck haunts him in many endeavors.
Due to his experience (including an undeserved ban), he has become quite distrustful of other users and even idols. This suspicion was especially evident in his attitude towards the "framer" - Annette, whom he initially blamed for his troubles. He was very angry with her and even tried to sort things out with her.
Despite his outward confidence, Max is painfully aware of the situation of an outcast and does not like to be laughed at or ignored.

Annette (real name - Anya Titova) is an 11-year-old outsider schoolgirl who lives with her aunt Lana. Contrary to the rules, she created an illegal, non-attached to a real person avatar in the Technolike metaverse, under the nickname Annette. Anya is a girl who is often laughed at at at school. Her only passion and escape from reality is the Technolike metaverse, where, under the name Annette, she desperately hopes to gain popularity and friends that she does not have in real life. Annette is an emotional, kind and sweet character, but deeply lonely. In the real world and virtual space, she often tries to draw attention to herself, but her attempts tend to go unnoticed. She has enthusiasm and creativity, but she can't direct them in the right direction, which is why her content in Technolike rarely gets even a few views, and the dream of likes and recognition seems unattainable. Beneath Anya's meek and shy exterior, she has a stubborn, decisive, and inventive nature. This is evident in her deep, near-professional knowledge of Technolike's system bugs, which she uses to quickly move around and access restricted areas, which contrasts with her general awkwardness in social interactions. Her stubbornness and straightforwardness are seen in her interactions with Max, where she allows herself to be grimacing and rude, indicating a complicated relationship.

Content device:

In Technolike, if you click on the wrist of your skin, a flying panel will open, which is a bit like a tablet in shape. The size is such that you have to hold it in two hands for maximum convenience. This device is used to record from a camera or selfie (like the camera of phones, cameras, tablets, etc.), access the gallery, view and create content and news, as well as listen to music, buy in Technolike stores online, create an account and manage it and a bunch of other features. It can also be customized.

Like promotions:

Sometimes Like holds promotions: vending machines are placed throughout Technolike. And if Like wants, then skins will fall out of such machines - branded merch from Like. Whoever has time, takes it.

Dina is by no means a traumatized outcast thirsty for revenge, but an overly active, hyper-responsible and very principled girl. She is sincerely sure that a person can do anything, but because of her excessive self-confidence, she often gets into a mess herself. The main feature of her character is an unshakable belief that true friendship is possible only in reality, and not for virtual "likes". Because of these beliefs, Dina became an ardent opponent of Technolike. She considers herself a real "revolutionary" fighting for live communication. In the real world, this struggle manifests itself in the fact that Dina, using the powers of the headman, obsessively tries to load her classmates with additional team building activities, which predictably makes her unpopular in the team.
In the virtual world, hiding under the mask of Anonymous_36, she tries to seem like a formidable hacker, but in fact she turns out to be too pretentious, inept and unlucky a pest. Its ultimate goal is not cruel revenge on the system, but a naïve desire to "break" the sandbox with petty dirty tricks so that children lose interest in it and return to the real world. At the same time, all her attempts at sabotage most often turn into a comedy.
Appearance
In the real world (Dina)
In reality, Dina is a teenage girl with straight, long blonde hair and sharp facial features. She wears dull pink glasses and a standard school uniform.
In Technolike (Dina's avatar)
Undisguised, her avatar is a pale-skinned girl with blue eyes and purple eyeshadow. Her hair is green, gathered in two shaggy sharp ponytails on the sides behind her head. She is dressed in dark blue and purple shorts with pockets, a sleeveless jacket with a long collar and a purple light turtleneck. Under the outerwear, apparently, he is wearing a dark jumpsuit (bodysuit). He wears black and purple gloves on his hands.
Image of "Anonymous 36" (disguise)
To hide her identity, Dina uses digital disguise. A purple helmet with a black faceplate that glows with green schematic eyes and mouth and a dark blue dinosaur costume.

Max's avatar in Technolike largely repeats the features of his real appearance, but with bright virtual accents. He has light red skin and purple eyes. Under the right eye there are three purple-pink triangles resembling cilia. A short hairstyle with a comb to the left has a pearlescent blue color, which shimmers with pink and green shades.
He wears a green T-shirt with the Technolaika symbol (diamond star) on top of which he wears a short purple jacket with a high neck. He wears a blue belt and maroon pants.

Direct control is carried out by Idols - self-learning AI algorithms. They live in a huge castle. In modern Technolaika, there are:

Captain is an idol of safety. He wears all white, white hair, is very serious, but can also sometimes be embarrassed, angry, etc. He also has a telescopic iron stick with blue lines, with which he can seal a heart or archive Idols.

Ban is an idol of order. He can ban avatars with his shuriken in the form of red crosses. He is dressed in all black and green. On his head is a bandana, also with a cross. White hair. Hot-tempered, aggressive and grumpy. When in contact with Avatars, he wears a black rectangle that covers his eyes.

Like is an idol of popularity. The most popular in Technolike. She can give a Super Like and is obsessed with her popularity. In public, she is good, but she herself is not
like that: grumpy, frowning because of everything. She wears all pink, her hair is pink, and she has two pigtails in the form of hearts. She can also convene meetings of Idols. There are also machines on Technolike, which give out Like merch sometimes. Each Avatar who comes can take the lying merch and take it for himself.

Wiki is an idol of information. She is a fierce perfectionist and does not like chaos, but she endures everything. She does not fully understand signs of attention (hints). Very smart and patient. The hair is shaded between blue and purple. He wears a black bodysuit covered by a lab coat and blue glasses. Her white boots with blue soles allow her to fly. He lives in the Technolaika library.

Omgus is the idol of content. This is a cat, walks on two legs, knows how to talk and loves to off Like. She wears a necklace with a quadrangular star. The coat is black, white on the tummy, around the mouth and near the antennae. The eyes are blue, with 4 charcoal stars. The tail is blue at the tip.

Happy is the Idol of Search. He is a pixelated dog with yellow fur and white on his tummy. He knows how to speak. Stores all Technolaika backups. For avatars, it serves as a search engine.

Interesting Facts

There are a lot of bugs in Technolaika everywhere. These can be transparent surfaces, dead pixels, and so on. Many bugs make it possible to penetrate somewhere illegally, and may have other functions. Using bugs for one's own purposes is stopped and punished by a ban.

Technolaika has its own superstitions and urban legends, for example, myths about the "archived idol" or cursed archives. Lyke believes in these legends very much.

The metaverse regularly hosts the anniversary "Dream Like" contest. The prize in it is unprecedented - the opportunity to make a wish, which will be written directly in the Technolike Source Code (with some security restrictions).

Some Idols, such as Ban, can directly intervene and punish users, up to and including a complete ban. And quite often, innocent avatars can also become banned by accident.

Technolike has existed for more than 10 years, since the idol Rose single-handedly ruled it 10 years ago.

Like has a limit on Likes: if she gives away too many Likes, she can't do it anymore due to the restrictions.

The legend of the Archived Idol says that once, 10 years ago, Technolike was ruled by only one Idol, but it went out of trend and was archived, replaced by a collective of new Idols.
