Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Your viewership is zero. Your subscriber count is a joke. And the galaxy just decided to cancel Earth's subscription to existence.Subscriber Count Zero is a high-octane Sci-Fi Comedy with a LitRPG-lite twist that satirizes the absurdity of the attention economy. In a universe where reality is governed by the Omni-Net, your physical stats are only as good as your latest stream, and "engagement" is the only thing keeping the laws of physics from glitching out.Arthur "Artie" Pringle is a failing "Let's Play" streamer with exactly one loyal viewer: his mom. But when he accidentally broadcasts a top-secret alien infiltration to a billion bloodthirsty intergalactic viewers, he doesn't just go viral-he becomes the most important human in history.Now, the Algorithm is in control:- High Engagement: Grants god-like buffs and "lucky" explosions.- Low Engagement: Results in "Shadow-Lag" where you physically fade from reality.- The Ultimate Rule: If the stream ends, Artie dies. If the sub count hits zero, Earth is deleted to make room for a nebula-cloud server farm.Artie must now navigate a global road trip of "IRL" streams, unboxing alien technology and surviving "community guidelines" enforced by cosmic assassins. He's got no skills, a toaster-shaped drone as a critic, and a "pro-gamer" partner who's actually a government agent tasked with killing him for a 400% engagement spike.The Season Finale is coming. Earth is currently in last place. And the intergalactic moderators are ready to hit the DELETE key.A fast-paced, irreverent underdog story perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl and Starter Villain, Subscriber Count Zero is a hilarious deep-dive into a universe where you're only as alive as your last "Like" and "Follow."The stream is live. Don't let the count hit zero.Scroll up and grab your copy to join the chat today!
