Hello everyone! Today marks exactly two years since the full release of Hero's Story. To celebrate this milestone, I’ve prepared a new update for the game, along with a translated user manual and participation in the Steam Summer Sale. This version fixes several lingering bugs, corrects typos, makes balance adjustments, and features improved Linux support. While Hero's Story doesn't have a native Linux build, it can be played successfully via Proton. I would like to once again thank all the players for their feedback and the time they've spent playing my game! I hope you enjoy the new update.
You can find full list of changes below!
