  #3 Reborn Plan-「PhoeniX Plan」& Price & Free Upgrade

  Hey Heroes,Thanks so much for hanging in there! It’s been a long journey, but we’ve finally validated that our brand-new framework is ready for cross-platform use. 🔎 What We FoundAfter releasing Arisen Force: LifeDevotee – Global Edition on PS5 and NS/NS2, our team dug deep and uncovered some serious issues. Things like stuttering and performance drops across different setups were mostly tied to our old framework and outdated workflow.Trying to patch on top of that would’ve been like stacking more floors on a crumbling building—messy to maintain and bound to break even more.🔧 How RebuildingSo after a lot of discussions, we’ve decided: HeroTest needs a full rebuild on a new framework.This is basically the same as making a brand-new game from scratch.

  #2 Update and Progress

  Thank you for your continued support and valuable feedback! After thorough analysis and consideration, our development team has identified that most current issues stem from limitations in the legacy UI framework. To address this, we are fully committed to rebuilding a brand-new UI framework, focusing on the following improvements: Comprehensive upgrades to mouse/keyboard/controller compatibility Optimized UI interaction logic for smoother operation Enhanced gameplay experience, including adjusted pacing for early/mid-game progression and refined difficulty curve As this update involves a complete low-level framework, we require additional time for development and stability testing. I sincerely apologize for the delayed release . Our team remains dedicated to delivering the best possible experience. Thank you for your understanding and patience! With gratitude, {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45036987/6aca37fb00e22c379c7f5df07bff4c9c88d27843.png
