What Is Kinger's Real Name? Digital Circus Episode 8 Theory

Did you know this in the amazing digital circus? During episode 8 we get a hint about what kinger’s real name is, does it mean anything? Let me explain. So in episode 8 kinger communicates with the computer program before he deletes caine. In one line of code, it calls kinger resourceful and appears to use his real name, containing the letters G, a and n. There’s 2 letters missing. So immediately fans started to think kinger is called grant, it matches. However there’s a better theory. In 1992 programmer Steve Grand started work on creatures, the first artificial life ai simulation game. Releasing in 1996, in that game you raise a group of creatures called norns and they have advanced neural ai. They learn from their surroundings and have their own personalities. You have to protect them from creatures called grendels. In March 1996 the first norn was bred, he was called caine. Steve also had his own company called cyberlife, with the r&d lab being created in 1998. So if you apply what i said to the digital circus it basically matches up one to one. There’s way too many things for it to be just a coincidence. Caine is the first ai, the grendels are the abstractions, r&d is c&a and kinger is grand. The circus was also made in 1996, the same year creatures came out. The creatures game is basically an inverse version of i have no mouth and i must scream. You can even torture the ai if you want. The i have no mouth game released on Oct 31, 1996, a day after the digital circus was made. The only thing against this theory is in a glitch direct from a few years ago, goose and glitch showed the inspirations for TADC. We can see things like popee the performer here, but creatures isn’t present. So maybe it was adopted into the story later, or they left out incase it spoiled the story early. So what do you think? Did you know about this fan theory? Let me know down below.
