Dear Heroes,
WindStop Strategy has been available for over a week now, and we would like to extend our sincere gratitude for the support and feedback you’ve shared across various platforms. Version 1.0.8 marks the first balance-focused patch since launch, and it represents an experimental step forward. Our goal is to enhance the overall enjoyment of gameplay builds by improving the practicality of certain "underwhelming" skills, talents, and items, while also rebalancing content that "performs far beyond our original design expectations." Given the team’s limited development experience, we’re uncertain whether these adjustments will align with everyone’s expectations. Therefore, we’ve decided to initially release this patch as a test version. Once we gather more community feedback, we’ll evaluate the overall response before determining whether to implement it in the official branch.
PS：The 1.0.7 version update is now live on the main branch.View game page
