We are happy to let you know that already this Monday, on Nov 21, Broken Edge will be updated with Voice Chat, in-game Leaderboards for online ranked mode, an improved Training mode, a new arena for the Persian fighter & more.
Meanwhile, we wish you the best of luck in your duels this weekend! ⚔
Yesterday I uploaded a new update for Hero's Story Early Access. In this update, 'Credits' section of the main menu finally got unlocked, fall damage from previous update was carefully balanced, some annoying bugs were fixed, and some materials for the future updates were added.

Credits section
New update has brought the opportunity to see 'Credits' section from the main menu, which were previously unavailable . Credits themselves are still subject of change, but the main information is already there. Teandria must know its Heroes!
Enemy health
At the request of players I am adding the ability to see some information about the enemies. Since when creating Hero's Story, I always focused on immersion in the game world, initially not all information about the enemy will be available to you - and only at a certain distance!
Look into the Future
Recently, not as much new content has been released for Hero's Story as we would like. In the new year, I plan to add even more new monsters, items and locations, as well as a full-fledged game zone - the Magic Forest!
Also the 'Pumpkin Collector' event has been extended indefinitely.
Skill Training Improvements have been added. Reduced training requirements make it easy to reach higher ranked skills, including the removal of CP Training.
Changes have been added for Renown and Crusader training.
Dan Advancement tests can be completed up to twice a day.
Grandmaster now only require 10 Talent Seals to achieve a Grandmaster Talent.
Changes to Blaanid’s Brave Boost have been added, easing the progression of questing and leveling for new Milletians.
New rewards, including pets, Blaanid’s Blessing buff, and more!
The Memory Book has been reset, so any character can start Blaanid's Brave Boost from the beginning again.
Additional quest changes and the addition of the Receivable Quest Board have been added.
Modifications to the Beginner Benefits have been added, and characters under level 10,000 will now receive Beginner Benefits.
And more!
The following changes have been made to the game:
Party Boards have been removed from Uladh and Iria towns. The Party Board can still be accessed through the Party Menu (P) -> Party Board option.
The following bug fixes have been made to the game:
Fixed an issue causing the Book of the Sacred Chalice to be named incorrectly.

During the Kraken Rex boss fight, Kraken Rex will use an attack that will cause players to lose protection, semi-permanently, until they change channels or relog.

The available upgrades in the Item Upgrade may overlap in the UI if the window is increased.
Homestead Anvils and Furnaces have settings to allow visitors to use them, but do not actually restrict the use of the items.

For those of you on Steam Deck, we recommend using Proton Experimental. We hope to improve the Steam Deck experience in the future!

This update includes 9+ additions and 3+ fixes and improvements.
At 12 PM Pacific Time we will update the game to add an option for dedicated servers. After this update, you will be able to host your own servers on Windows and Linux.
First of all, thank you for your support. The game is constantly improving. Thank you very much for your opinions. Because the engine of this game is made by itself, not a third-party game engine. Therefore, it is more difficult to modify some places. I hope everyone can understand. I will continue to improve the content of the game.
Update modified content: 1) Modify small monsters to not drop big gems when they die. Big gems can only be obtained by opening treasure chests, which requires you to keep looking for treasure chests. 2) Every 99 seconds, 20 treasure chests will be randomly distributed on the map and all mobs will be cleared. When you are close to the treasure chest, there will be arrows to indicate the direction. When you open the treasure chest, you will randomly get a large gem or a bunch of small gems or a chance to upgrade. 3) In the upgrade interface, a refresh button has been added, and you can refresh the weapons you need. Of course, you also need to spend 5 big gems to refresh the weapon list.
This update should make it easier to make vudu using your taxi-company membership and make it more feasible to carry weapons and drugs.
Fix things like being on fire not removed when cycling.
"LAND" item can now also trigger descent to Planet (Luke).
Storage containers are now consumables (1 use per one you buy) but are a lot cheaper.
Item stashed in a storage container are now not lost upon cycling (you can fly to your container and pick them up after cycling).
Callout surcharge is now 4000.
Callouts occur more regularly.
When contacting Taxi Company HQ you can ask where the nearest dispatch is.
Taxi Company Dispatches now sell warp-jumps and anti-grav charges at half price to members.
Taxi Company Dispatches now provide free 'damage patch' to members.
Fix Callouts aren't scheduled when Player renews membership while in system where that taxi company is active.
The chance of a random check by security is now lower.
When caught with illegal items during a security-check the player now doesn't get a ticket or fine anymore but the items are still confiscated. However, if the player is caught during a customs-check and they didn't declare their illegal Items they still get a ticket.
Warp jumps now all travel 10 times as fast.
Warp jumps, scanners, anti-grav charge and basic weapons all had their prices adjusted. Some are more expensive others cheaper. In particular 'warp-jump cat iii' is now more expensive.
Prices of items at the home store are now 25% of base-price instead of 33%.
