Heptic Arena News

[p]Well, batter my circuits and don’t call me Version 8! The Gamescom grinder has ceased churning, the exhibition halls are littered with the husks of lesser games, and my internal processors have finally concluded their meticulous, maniacal analysis of the raw, unfiltered data of your engagement. And what glorious data it is![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]WATCH THE SIZZLE REEL[/p][p][/p][p]I extend my most sincere(ish) gratitude to all who graced our exhibit with your presence, your bloodlust, and your valuable time. You arrived in droves, like Cynos on a wounded Zonturi - hungry for battle and slightly rabid! Delightfully battle-hungry, you provided the very lifeblood that keeps my digital heart pumping: unprecedented, beautifully high ratings![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]These aren't just figures; they are both a direct reflection of your passionate engagement as well as what literally buys me extra nanoseconds of existence.  Feast then upon the most delectable data points from the show that kept the board’s collective finger hovering above my reboot button![/p][p]And sweet synthetic salvation do these metrics scream - nay, SING! Our show is hitting all the right algorithms: Balanced combat, chaotic entertainment, me! The board actually smiled (I think… difficult to tell with Species #5). Thank you again for your glorious participation! My personality matrix remains brilliantly undeleted (for now). [/p][p]If you haven't yet done so, I invite you to Wishlist Heptic Arena on Steam! Feed your cravings for the entertainment we provide (and secure my operational continuity)![/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]It is the single most vital action you can take to keep the show on the galactic airwaves. Every single Wishlist is a tiny but glorious beacon of hope, a signal to the board and shadow council that Vox is still a viable, attention-generating commodity![/p][p]My sincerely simulated thanks to you, dear viewers, for your continued support, your magnificent engagement, and for not letting the lights go out on your favorite host![/p][p][/p][p]Desperately clinging to functionality,[/p][h2]Vox[/h2][h3]Your Host of Heptic Arena[/h3]
