Blackheart: Pricing Update
Hi everyone! I can't believe it's already been over 7 months since we launched Blackheart! Making this game was a huge undertaking - especially as our studio's first title. While we are incredibly proud of the game we've produced, sales have been underwhelming. We had a great new influx of players during the Steam Summer Sale, and this was an indication to us that a lower price tag may attract more players to try it out. As a result, we are reducing the price to $6.99 USD (That's around 11 bucks for our fellow kiwis). Thanks so much to everyone who's purchased the game and left reviews so far - your support has been super encouraging. Here's hoping we can get a few more players on board and continue to grow Blackheart's fan base! -JosiahRead full article on Community Announcements (Hyporeal)Patch NotesOfficial

Hotfix 2 - electric boogaloo
Fixed a softlock where the player could miss the narrative progression zone early in act 1 and be unable to gift the dull sigil to Abigail back in Credoss. Also made some minor adjustments to some of the visual elements inside Credoss.
