Hey all, hope you are doing well!
I'm still working on the next update, which should include two new Ballads, a new goddess, and some further upgrades to Alchemy/Jewelcrafting. I'm hoping to wrap up all new content in this next new update, and I plan to have it completed and available to you by the end of this month. Thank you so much for sticking around for this journey!
Thank you...

We are beginning to reach the end of our story in Ballad of Heroes. There is only one content update remaining that I hope to get out in May (possibly June). Our heroes will be bringing the fight back to Mount Olympus and dealing with the treacherous Khronos.

v.85 has now been released. The next Ballad, the Ballad of the Eagle, takes us back to Colchis for a rematch with Aeëtes. Only two Ballads remain as we work our way back to Olympus and confront Khronos for his treachery.

February took us to the island of Aiaia where we met with the witch Circe. In March, we are making our way back to Colchis for an encounter with Aeëtes and his reanimated husks. Our heroes will finally start to get the upper hand on some of their foes.
There will also be the usual increases in profession levels as well as some new Trial of Re...

I just released version .7 last night. A new Ballad as been introduced, the Ballad of the Labyrinth. Your party has retreated to Crete to regroup, and in the mean time you have a run in with a new god and make your way through the famed Cretan Labyrinth and face off with the Minotaur.
Alongside the new Ballad, there is a few other additions....
2023-10-01 11:59:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey all, hope you've had a good August!
I'm still hard at work on v.7. I haven't had quite as much time to work on this update as I have in the past few months, but I've made some steady progress including implementing Poseidon and a good chunk of the new Ballad. My goal is to have it out by mid-late September.

This past month, my focus has been more on adding some QoL improvements and pushing out some bug fixes. I will push that in the next few days, and then I will get back to work on the next Ballad focusing on the story of Theseus. Scattered from Mount Olympus, our heroes move far away to Crete to regroup and figure out their next steps. I hope to have t...
2023-08-01 12:00:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
The v.6 update seems stable so far outside of a few bug fixes the past few days. Hope you're all enjoying it! When I first started working on this game in October 2022 and outlined some functionality ideas and storyline, this was the end point I made it to. I hoped that I would be able to make it here, and so far so good!
I've been working on the story outline for the next ...

Recently, I've released a couple of smaller updates since v.5 addressing some bugs, UI improvements, and other small changes. Things seem stable for now, so I've begun working on the next set of changes for v.6.

Today I'm finally releasing the .5 update that I've been working on this month. This will reintroduce us to the Ballad of Labors as our characters attempt to match Heracles's strength. Months pass as you travel all over Greece and beyond, and your power continues to grow over time. By the time you complete the labors, you just may be ready for another battl...

I pushed out version .45 a couple of days ago which should include a number of changes based on feedback as well as improving the clarity of certain things. The resources page received a much needed redesign and I've introduced a bestiary for those who wanted to have all enemy and item drop information available at all times.
On top of that, I'v...
