It is time! We have decided to bring Hero Defense - Haunted Island out of Early Access and into full Release!
With the release, we will bring out a whole bunch of new and exciting features (including some suprises!)
After the release, we will still continue to update and improve the game.
We've just deployed the Patch 0.3.2a - this prepares your game for the EPIC LEAGUE OF SLAYERS, starting in just half an hour!
Participate in this fast paced, 6 hour tournament, climb to the Top of the Leaderboard and win 5 HERO DEFENSE KEYS to give your friends!
You will meet some Devs on the Battlefield, but don't worry, they are just here for the challenge, and not to steal your chance for the Keys!
Patch 0.3.2 - EPIC LEAGUE, Cheat Detection and more
Another Happy Tuesday means another Hero Defense patch!
Season System
We've finished the season system. This allows us to do special events and more. To celebrate this - we will do the EPIC LEAGUE OF SLAYERS tournament, tomorrow, Wednesday, from 4pm to 10pm CET. The event will feature a lot of endgame content, and all epic runes!
The winner will get 5 Hero Defense keys to give his friends!
Cheat Detection
We've improved our algorithms for detecting and banning cheaters. Henceforth, if a player is suspected of cheating, he will be suspended or banned from multiplayer.
Of course, endless mode is still developed as well - a new endless map is released - re-live your fight against Count Necrosis in an endless nightmare - the CASTLE endless map is out!
Furthermore, we've improved the difficulty ramp up of all endless maps, which should give everybody a good shot at defeating at least a few waves!
