ANEURISM IV News

Greetings proud workers.

For the past few weeks, we've been working on lots of new content. Many have asked for a roadmap, but the truth is we don't know when what is coming. All we know is that a lot of good stuff is coming — from the notorious apartment update to a complete metalworks rework. But like all good things, these take time.

Thankfully, we know the citizens of ANEURISM IV value their time. That's why we're rewarding their patience with 8 new cosmetics, and some much needed bug fixes and improvements.

Lastly, we've almost hit 10 000 members on our Discord server. Thank you to everyone for all your support. We can't wait to celebrate the big 10k!

Citizens of ANEURISM IV, stay alert. The Cortex has seen a critical surge in rot levels.
