A few quick questions, ITAD says that the game is on sale on the site, but I'm not seeing it so I want to know if it's worth buying it here for the Steam key or buy it on Steam for 10% off. Also, the other question was, does the supporter pack come included with the Itch.io purchase or will it be separate either way to get more units for that small price?
When using Training Grounds, if you leave your units inside the exchange window and open town, hero window, clues or spellbook they disappear! (took the time to confirm this, check other windows players might open too. Might be a good idea to never ACTUALLY remove units from the army until an exchange is made in any format). plz fix.
How can I access the soundtrack of the game? I can see some songs in my install folder but it seems to only be the theme of each faction. I really like the main songs from the campaign map.
I think I will, and some of the bugs have hopefully been ironed-out by then, I've been reading some reviews on there and it's been... interesting. Glad I didn't jump in now, to be honest.
In Homm3 "power" meant spell casting power. Here all units have a power rating, what does it mean? Relatedly, will there be a manual that covers things like this?
It is a rating to tell you how powerful the unit is in general. It also has to do with the bar for how many units it takes up on your active army.
Aka you can only have like 100/100(random number not actual) at a time on the field. Then when it gets down a bit you send reinforcements to refill it.
Thanks! I have another question- Do any of the units have elemental immunities or resistances, for example are pyre creatures immune to fire? If s, is this displayed somewhere? If not, how do the various "ultimate spells" differ? -each of them is "kill all."
Not unless mentioned, which currently means no, there aren't any (there are units that have a magic resistance in general but not against certain types)
I assume there aren't such immunities, so you aren't screwed all of a sudden if you put points into fire magic and then face a Pyre enemy (like in your example), but like I said that's just an assumption.
I am not sure what you mean with your second question. There are different ultimate spells that do different things (you can read what they do in the lexicon) and even if there are similar spells in different magic schools, then they would still at least scale with different skills.
Also if you have more questions you can join the Discord server, there are usually more people there to answer questions.
It is a fantastic game but it seems limited on larger maps or when multiplaying with my friends it ddos a lot. I won't quit playing by any means just throwing a few things to look at.
Last thing at the moment when you go from creating a new map and finish it then go back to the menu it does not matter what map you click on to play it crashes.
Hey i love the game, could i ask some help on how to generate a land only map? I tried setting the borders to land in the nodemap creator, but it still has sea on the corners or no change at all.
The demo version on steam currently isn't the same as the full release. Once the steam release happens (today or tomorrow depending on your timezone), the Itch version should get an update too, enabling Pillar.
One bug i noticed is that if you're deploying an army and hold shift while dragging a unit card, you could continue to just multiply your selected forces. This was 1.9.3 though. I'll text 1.9.4 and get back to you asap
Bought this while home for a weekend on my main PC, but now i'm back in NYC with just my macbook. I freaking love the game, it's amazing. So if there could be a mac port soon, that would be awesome!
This game is great! Literally one of the best I've encountered on itch.io. Really a testament to what is possible from a few dedicated indie developers. Hope this inspires others!
I've played this game for hundreds of hours. I really enjoy it and I look forward to mods on Steam. Thank you for your hard work in making this game :)
yesterday I bought the game. hope for steam key after release.
btw, during probably 3-4 hours of game, it creashed 4 times. one time with some error code, rest just crash without anything.
Game look pretty well, but what is more important, it will have some "love" from developers for some time period and lots of suff could be added/fixed/balanced. I'm looking forward for more updates
I just uploaded v 1.9.0, and there'll be a devlog coming up soon with some more details.
Quick overview: Hero's Hour lands on steam on 1st of March. That will be the 2.0 update, which has a new faction, new translations into Spanish, French, German, Polish, Russian, Chinese, and hopefully Japanese and Korean as well. Until then, game is only available in English.
The price of the game will rise, but I'll be setting the game on sale for 1-2 weeks at the same point, so the increase will be more gradual.
Is there a way to help out with translations if we know another language beyond those? I speak Norwegian and a Norwegian translation is absolutely not necessary because we all speak fluent english. But it is rare and might make any Norwegian give it another look.
Hi NoCarz, um, we had to ban your discord account after it was hacked and started spamming phishing links. You'll have to make a new account to join the HH discord server. Sorry about the commotion
Paid version has written "Premium" under the title inside the game. The free version has only 4 factions, the premium one has all of them (other 6 factions).
j'ai essayé d'acheter le jeux sans réussir a le télécharger j'ai demander de l'aide au support mais ca reste flou je ne sais pas si j'ai payer ou non et personne n'est capable de m'aider
Tried the free demo and had a blast! Love the graphics and I loved the building in acane which granted the player a free spell to use per battle which after battle gets shuffled. Had a 100 stack of goblingunners which I just transformed into random units, dominating the field! Love it!
Jut bought the game and love it. I think I've been waiting for a fantasy pixel style wargame all my life hahahaha. Any advice on modding? Can you create new factions, for instance?
Join our discord to learn more about the modding possibilities. There are mods being made already and we are working on better possibilities for the steam launch.
I love this game, but it crashes so much. Starting a new game, loading a game, randomly in battles, randomly selecting things.
This is consistent across two totally different computers.
Are there plans to solve these crashes? It seems many others have the same problems. I'd hate for this game to launch on Steam with so many crash bugs as it's great, but would get pretty harshly rated in it's current state.

Ore is Ore, aether is a special resource
i hope those who bought the game here will receive steam keys
We will... It has been confirmed on discord, just not when.
Any news on a mac port?
Please :)
Major army decimating bug discovered!
When using Training Grounds, if you leave your units inside the exchange window and open town, hero window, clues or spellbook they disappear! (took the time to confirm this, check other windows players might open too. Might be a good idea to never ACTUALLY remove units from the army until an exchange is made in any format). plz fix.
Thankfully my last save wasn't too far back.
Looking forward to official release tomorrow.
Hello
How can I access the soundtrack of the game? I can see some songs in my install folder but it seems to only be the theme of each faction. I really like the main songs from the campaign map.
Thank you!
Missed the sale - whoops! Guess I won't be purchasing it for a year or so, time to take it off my waitlist on isthereanydeal...
You can wait for the next steam sale to hopefully buy it on there at with a discount.
I think I will, and some of the bugs have hopefully been ironed-out by then, I've been reading some reviews on there and it's been... interesting. Glad I didn't jump in now, to be honest.
The game is awesome, I am just getting this error to help u in the new updates :)

link broken? says invite invalid on discord
Still broken, tried a new one. That one worked once, then was broken too. Idk what I'm doing wrong, I'm not that active on Discord :(

This game scratches an itch that has been there since about 2001.

There's a strange bug. The free demo has the Pillar faction enabled (the player or the AI can choose it) and it exists in the Lexicon as well.
However, the full version does not have access to the Pillar faction, it doesn't even exist in the Lexicon.
This seems counter-intuitive to say the least. I'm in 1.9.4 for both versions of the game.
The demo version on steam currently isn't the same as the full release. Once the steam release happens (today or tomorrow depending on your timezone), the Itch version should get an update too, enabling Pillar.
The demo was amazing! I've bought the complete game! It remember me the good old times when I used to play Heroes of M&M! Good Job!
Again... Love this game but just want you to know.

Bought it yesterday, seems to run smoothly. Encountered one crash sofar but autosafe works perfect.
Do we get a steam code once the game goes live?
where to bug report?
On the official Discord server. There is a dedicated channel for bug reports.

Hey, sorry - v 1.9.3 had a pretty major bug that made the game not work like at all. It's been fixed now and v 1.9.4 has been uploaded.
Sorry for the issues this might have caused.
One bug i noticed is that if you're deploying an army and hold shift while dragging a unit card, you could continue to just multiply your selected forces. This was 1.9.3 though. I'll text 1.9.4 and get back to you asap
I love Heroes of Might and Magic III and V. But I prefer this more, because it manages to make the game more fast and engaging

If we've purchased this game already will we receive a steam key after release?
Yes he has stated that we will be getting a Steam key once it's released there.

Hi NoCarz, um, we had to ban your discord account after it was hacked and started spamming phishing links. You'll have to make a new account to join the HH discord server. Sorry about the commotion
Will the game lanuch on macOS?
Same question, would love to see one when it releases on steam
Is this game supported in Korean?
The game has English, Spanish, French, Polish, German support and soon in Russian. But for now not in Korean.
How can you tell the difference between the free demo and the paid version?
Paid version has written "Premium" under the title inside the game. The free version has only 4 factions, the premium one has all of them (other 6 factions).
Thanks!
why would you buy the game when you give us necromancy immediately lol
