It's been a long road since the Hero's Hour v2.0 update brought us to steam, and it's been some wonderful years of post-launch support. But recently, I've been putting together a team and started work on the next evolution of Hero's Hour: With so many sweeping changes, it had to be a sequel.You can jump over to see the steam page, trailer and wishlist it now! Right here: Hero's Hour 2.Not only will Hero's Hour 2 be a jump up in team size, it also goes to higher levels when it comes to quality - and thus development time. So it's not playable yet. But if you follow the steam page or the official Hero's Hour discord server, you'll be getting all the news about what I expect to exceed every parameter of Hero's Hour 1, once it's done.The team is composed of me, Lautaro Ariño who also worked on Hero's Hour 1, as well as two powerful indie developers known as Unleash the Giraffe. The project is being safekept by Hooded Horse. I am super proud to have reached a level where I actually am working on a game by the same publisher who has the current Heroes of Might and Magic game under their wing.So, to make sure to not leave He

Some time ago, I started talking to a representative of Lava Potion studios - the team that made the excellent game, Songs of Conquest, one of the closest family members of Hero’s Hour, if we talk about game genres. Together we hatched a plan to add one of the beloved heroes from that game to Hero’s Hour. Cecilia thus joins the roster of Hero’s Hour heroes, becoming a General from the Order faction.She also gets her all own unit, the Conquest Minstrel. I always found the theme of musical units, which runs through the various Songs of Conquest factions, super interesting, and I’m happy to at least be able to have a nod towards that here. The Conquest Minstrel is a very rare unit, only really available for Cecilia - and playing her becomes a bit of a Challenge Run. On one hand, the Conquest Minstrels are really powerful support units - on the other hand, you’ll have to keep those few Conquest Minstrels you start with safe throughout the run, since there’s few ways to replenish them. I recommend the Resurrection spell, but I’m sure you’ll find other methods. Other than this, v2.8.2 adds another hero, Amber, who changes the units in town into dragons (when used as your starting hero),

Hero's Hour is part of Strategems 2025, an event dedicated to affordable and highly replayable strategy games, with a 60% discount and a minor update out now: the v2.8.1b update! v2.8.1b - Patch Notes: Building Planner UI changes BP now shows buildings in horizontal rows instead of mixed rows and columns BP now sorts buildings by their requirements more strictly Updated icons for BP requirements Updated frames for BP to more clearly show what can and cannot be built Changed font of BP Improved BP performance Readjusted building requirements Fixes and Changes Fixed subroutines for drawing the overworld HUD displaying your owned towns that took a lot more performance than was reasonable, significantly slowing down the game the more towns you owned Fixed a bug leading to the artifact duplication check to stop working after the player had picked up a treasure chest or similar dual-choice resource Fixed memory leak related to the new upgrade feature, slowing down games as they went on, as well as prolonging save and load times Optimised performance for large maps by reworking the secter and coastline systems Terrain now looks more correct when quickly zooming out the game Fixed a c

The Release of the Homestead update went really well, overall. But the size of the update does seem to have led some parts of the update to have been done a bit sloppily. So I’m quickly working on a v2.8.1 update, currently live on the public_beta branch in steam, which I hope will assuage the transitional pains to the Homestead update. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40741272/b790516a9ebb1cbe80e76dfb7d2edbf5ef21c052.png I’ve released three small updates into the public beta during the last week, and the most recent one has the rework of the building planner to look like the above. There’s a long list of fixes, including some important performance improvements on large maps, and bug fixes to critical crashes. But a large part of the v2.8.1 update will be a rework to the rework, so to say - an overhaul to the new building planner that should make it more clear and more straightforward to use. I know the new building planner is controversial. I still hold out hope that polishing it will make people accept and maybe even enjoy it over the old system. If not, I will be looking into options for adding an advanced map setting to go back to the old system. It might seem strange to have had an update i
