Virtual Warping

Virtual Warping
Infinite (Sonic the Hedgehog), using the powers of his finalized copy of the Phantom Ruby, can augment and manipulate virtual reality projections on top of existing reality, controling it in the process.
Power/Ability to:	Manipulate reality in a computer-like fashion.

"Any sufficiently advanced reality warper is indistinguishable from God."

― A riff on Clarke's Third Law

"A weapon that takes control of people's visual and depth perception to feed false information to the brain, creating a new reality for them! Like a dream so real, if you bump yourself in it, your sleeping self will bruise? It's hard to believe."

― Miles "Tails" Prower - Sonic Forces

"Product of the digital mind, I'll build the future that I datalized. Into a world of my image perfected, I won't stop until you're all infected."

― Brandon Yates - Infection Perfection

The power to manipulate reality in a computer-like fashion. Variation of Reality Warping. Virtual form of Data Warping. Not to be confused with Virtual Reality Manipulation.

Capabilities

User can manipulate reality by instructing it in a way similar to that of instructing computers. They can instruct reality to produce any kind of material and phenomena as well as erase and modify them as well. At sufficiently high levels, they may be able to reconfigure the structures of reality and redefine its rules at will.

The user can create computer-like interfaces between reality and oneself. By using these interfaces, they can distort reality. For example, the user can create an interface to edit aspects of their physiology. Another example, the user can create an interface that displays fictional works. Thanks to this interface, they can visit the fictional worlds they choose. Examples can be multiplied, it all depends on the imagination of the user and the potential the author offers to the power.

The user can also modify reality by programming it. From the user's perspective, every living thing and object is a software/program. User can modify them by making changes to their "source codes". Additionally, the user can create and destroy new entities and beings just by coding.

Roko's Basilisk (Internet)

Using his digital keyboard, the Ghost Writer (Danny Phantom) can turn reality into a story of his own making and place whoever he wants into it, as "everything" that is typed on the keyboard will "come true" according to the writer's script.

Yggdrasil (Oh My Goddess)

Yggdrasil (Oh My Goddess) needs people to hunt the bugs.

During the final showdown, S.H.O.D.A.N. (System Shock series) could warp reality itself via her specialized technological installations.

Mutsuki (Input/Ouput)

Rin (Shelter)

Neos (Valkyrie Crusade) can control reality in a computer-like manner, making her able to delete and remake both the Cyberland and the Celestial Realm.

Sombra (Overwatch)

RB3 (Saga Frontier) is an advanced, transcendent AI system designed to fully destroy and replace reality, as such it can warp like using a computer program.

Prime Mover (Marvel Comics)

Osamu Sugosugi, the creator of the video game "Game Maou" (The Game Devil) somehow developed the ability to warp reality, resulting in the game's titular antagonist to turn existence into a physical representation of the game itself.

Null Space (Sonic the Hedgehog)

The Phantom Ruby (Sonic the Hedgehog), can create entire virtual, illusionary realities with mass and form, parasitically warping with true reality based off of one's visual and depth perception.

A Phantom Ruby prototype (Sonic Forces), held by Miles "Tails" Prower.

Welcome to Reality 2.0....

The Allied Mastercomputer/AM (I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream)'s unparalleled sentience caused the machine to evolve into a near-godlike being, controlling reality around it virtually and physically as if it were a part of his functionality, while also having total control over his own complex.

Because of A.M.A.Z.O. (DCAU)'s seemingly endless, evolving coding of adaptation allowed him to gain many superpowers, including to manipulate the fabric of reality itself; thus, being a nigh-omnipotent entity of artificial design.
