I liked it, thought it was cute and dark. I have a feeling it's gonna be quite long between new releases.

The cane guy wasn't able to answer how to leave, like he paused - instead of saying "no you can't leave", it might be a HAL situation where he can't actually lie to humans but also cant disclose whats keeping them trapped. Also his name being Cane seems like an obvious reference to Cain and Able, so presumably he slew his "brother" (whatever that would mean for some omnipotent AI thing). The door Pomni say outside was orange instead of red and Cane was quick to dismiss it as a hallucination, the red one seems to be the one Cain made for the humans.

Pomni also didn't seem that worked up about being unable to remember her name compared to how she reacted to other weird stuff, which was a little strange. She also reacted quite strangely ro seeing herself in the mirror, I guess it was the first time she'd seen herself. I wonder if she struggled with some kind of identity issue before her upload.

I get the feeling there's no exit because they aren't people trapped in a digital world, they're copies of people who put on the helmet. They don't have anything to escape to on the other end of the digital divide.
