Why`s that? Because of sad threads full of wishful thinking (h/w specs of dream Amy/AOS) ?

There's also a two-pixel wide vertical line on the yellow part of the X (clear in high contrast viewed on laptop with screen tilted to an extreme angle), perhaps suggesting the edge of a 3-dimensional object?

Credits to Boot_WB and BinoX they decoded the gibberish as a base64 string:

What is X, if not a letter,
Perhaps an Omen, or even better?



Interesting. X has many meanings, it is also used as a replacement for "trans", as in "Xfer".


I still think it's memory protection myself...

I also thought it might also include the possibility of future CPU portability but actually they'd be pretty dumb if they didn't at least consider this for the future.

@all

Have you noticed that the background on the first page is white while it's black on the other pages ?

@Rogue (/HyperionMP / Enthilza)

Nice game, catching attention, and funny, really !


But don't push this too far / too long, or you might face people moaning (as usual) "Oh, is that all it was about ?", "I would have expected..."

anything ending with hyperion-entertainment.com seems to show the teaser.

http://www.foo.hyperion-entertainment.com worked for me.

You can have a lot of fun with blind URL re-writing rules Try this one for example:

Personally, I think that we need one more clue, for those who think that they might almost have it. Oh, and I do think that people are going to like what it is.

Could X be a port to X-box 360?

ATI GPU, 64-bit 3-core cpu - it would indeed be ambitious!
