[p]Hey hey everyone!

Thank you very much for the awesome reception Sword Hero has received in the past few days. It's been incredible to see and read how everyone felt about the Demo.

Now comes the part - What's next for Sword Hero?

First of all - 0.0.11 patch for the Demo is up now - And over the weekend, I will be preparing a Roadmap and updating the website, where I will have an entire section dedicated to the lore of Sword Hero for people who are interested - and some sneak peeks at locations that will be in the full game.

In the meantime, please enjoy this awesome illustration @агата (Discord) helped me a while back, depicting the first little village of Ironshire, based on my doodles.

And as previously as well, if you'll meet a crash, please send me your player.log files in DM on Discord, so I can use them to help me track down the source of the issue.

[p]Trailer and Combat Arena Demo Live NOW!

After years of work (mostly spent with preparing a robust framework), I'm incredibly excited to announce, that for the first time ever, the Combat of Sword Hero is NOW publicly available to try, in a Combat Arena with a limited feature set.

I've also worked really hard to bring you the first Trailer showing the first glimpses of the open-world of Wes, and island set on the edge of the Ringworld, where your adventures will take place.

I hope you'll enjoy this short Demo, as more news are coming soon!

I'll be monitoring feedback everywhere, so feel free to ask questions or just let me know what you think or if you have suggestions regarding the game, I'll do my best to answer everything!
