I have a game from 2017 called “Prey”, it’s about battling aliens that broke containment on a private space station 100x the height of the Empire State Building. The core method of upgrading your skills and weapons are through a revolutionary device known as a “Neuromod”. Strikingly, it is also injected through the eye, much like adrenochrome. However, instead of rejuvenating and causing a severe addiction, the Neuromod creates additional neurons within the brain to instantly learn new skills. One of the symptoms listed after injection is “redness of the eye around the bony orbit”. It also just so happens that in order to make a Neuromod, a person has to be killed by an alien, in this case, death-row inmates, instead of children. Coincidence, or predictive programming?
