ANEURISM IV News

[h3]Proletariats, welcome back.

Very simple announcement to keep our steam community up to speed- Attacks have halted, and we are going to be undergoing investigations into these bad actors and malicious attackers (butthurt cheaters).

Servers are back online for now, update will be coming soon, keep a close look at our announcements!

Thank you for giving us your time, patience, and endurance through this unfortunate time. We look forward to getting you back to work. [/h3][p][/p][p]-A.C


Under laws like the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (US) and the Computer Misuse Act (UK), DDoS attacks can result in heavy fines and prison time, sometimes up to 10 years.
Similar laws apply in many countries around the world. We are actively investigating and will pursue any responsible parties through proper legal channels.
If you're running a community or affiliated server and have traffic logs from the time of the attacks, please reach out. That information could be extremely helpful in our investigation.

We've given a lot of information on our discord about the recent problems, but we'd like to address them here to our community that may not use the discord platform.

Unfortunately, this is all we have at this time when it comes to Shockbyte. https://status.shockbyte.com/cmbiasjn00007gdb03njbl02q

We have received no updates since then. We are going to be having a major internal meeting tonight on the subject of finding suitable solutions for our community. We're just as upset as you guys are, we do promise.

In the meantime, we would like to encourage everyone to A. Bring up your own personal community server, or B. Take some time to enjoy community servers in general!

Aneurism IV operates by community, and so do its devs. We're not dodging the problem by pushing you away to other servers whatsoever, but we know you will have a better experience in community servers opposed to the alternative intermittent issues we have been experiencing.

Thank you for playing our game. We apologize for the disruptions wholeheartedly and we know it may take some time to show that, but we are prepared to get to work and improve upon our players' experiences on Aneurism IV.

Thank you for your attention.

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!

Greetings citizens of ANEURISM IV. We bring to you today a super tiny but important patch.

• Fixed Vomit Coffin earning a large amount of anamnecytes.
