First of all, thank you for playing Shapehero Factory and for your interest in the game.
Currently, the development team is focusing on balancing overall resources, balancing between heroes, balancing between warriors and mythical beasts, and fixing bugs.
As the first step, we have made adjustments to the balance of overall resources and the ranks D and C of warriors.
The first change is the adjustment of mana acquisition balance. In general, it has become easier to obtain mana in the early stages. Additionally, we have made it possible to acquire mana immediately upon leveling up, which expands your options.
The second change is the actual increase in the timing of obtaining hero recipes, making it easier to acquire higher-tier hero recipes at an earlier stage.
The third change is the downward adjustment of abilities for lower-tier heroes (mythical beasts will be addressed later). Their hero abilities were very powerful, which led to imbalance.
In addition, various other fixes have been made.
We will continue to improve the game step by step, so please continue to enjoy Shapehero Factory.
