150+ Gemdrop Games recently took Harvest Hero Origins to [ PAX West 2021] [ hho_pax ]
151+ and had a very positive response from most of the players!
152+ Being able to watch people play the game was extremely valuable,
153+ the developers were able to see pain points in UI/UX design
154+ and can now fix them without worry.
155+ They were also able to see what players find fun about controlling each hero,
156+ which helps with the next hero planning in the full release of the game.
157+
158+ Harvest Hero Origins is still planned to release by the end of 2021,
159+ please wishlist it on [ Steam] [ hho ] !
