Heyo,

We are currently working on releasing Hero Siege for PS4. We are in the midst of QA and fixing sony's bug/requirement list as we go.

Hero Siege will be crossplatform on PS4 with PC / Mobile (HOPEFULLY). There are ton of restrictions and guidelines we need to work on for this to happen so it will take some time unfortunately....

Switch will be cross with PC / Mobile as well, but not with PS4 due to Sony's policies. I know this is tricky but we will try to make it as good as possible.

Hello,

We are patching the game and server next week so there will be a short maintenance at 12 AM GMT+2. (Monday 17th)

The main fix is the random crash that happens in multiplayer out of nowhere, this was due to Game Maker's built in Package Handler that some times handled packages the wrong way which results in a crash.

We are also releasing a new skin for Marksman which is the Eastfoundian Trooper. All money made with this skin will be put into the development of Eastfound, so we can make the game as awesome as we possibly can!



Here are some screencaps of Eastfound:

Hello,

We have discovered that the built in packet handler in the Game Maker engine fails on occasion when it's trying to receive a very large chunk of consecutive data, which causes the game to crash randomly.

Our team is fixing the issue and we will update the game as soon as possible!

- Pas team

All expansions (normal + collectors) will be -35% off this week!

- Karp of Doom
- Depths of Hell
- Wrath of Mevius

Yoyoyo!

We have planned a lot of things for Hero Siege in the future, such as an unique satanic system where items actually give you new abilities and new statistics. So you can farm for a certain item in order to change the way you play, for example this weapon will make Viking's attacks ranged (throwing tomahawks):



Also the new act has been in planning, and will be started when Eastfound is ready. Also hiring an experienced multiplayer/network programmer to help Jussi re-program the whole online engine for a better and more smooth gaming experience!

We are currently working on Eastfound, our zelda / alundra inspired story driven action adventure game





We are here, working hard every day! :)

First of all we would like to apologize for the unexpected server outages like last night. These have been due to a hardware failure, which we will be addressing later today at 18.00 GMT+2. The maintenance will take between 2-3 hours and hopefully resolve these issues . Thank you for your patience.
