To be honest, I didn’t think this many people were still playing this demo! Wow.
This is related. I was setting up to reduce it and left in some code, which broke the demo. Sorry about that. It should be fixed, but it stops after chapter 5 now.

This is such a fun setup honestly. The whole “world with no powers… until now” angle immediately pulled me in. Being the first real superhero must make every choice feel heavier, since there’s no blueprint to follow.
Also, that’s a huge amount of content for a demo. 150k words per run is kind of insane in the best way. I like that you can shape so much about your character too — it makes replaying feel worth it.
Ryker City sounds like the perfect place for everything to spiral. Definitely looking forward to seeing how this grows.

Welcome to the community!
Thank you for your kind words. I’m not really sure what most games’ average word count is per playthrough, but I wanted people to have an idea for my game. This demo link no longer demos the full game. Soon, I’ll patch in some more spelling and grammar corrections that are for the final submission before launch.

I really liked the game and the fact you listened to the readers and made changes, any idea when part 2 demo would be released because I can wait also any idea when it would be released

Hello everyone,
I’ve been meaning to do my end-of-month update for a bit, but I keep missing it, so I’m making this post now since there are major news updates!
Dawn of Heroes has a release date and is now available for Wishlist on Steam. The link will be at the bottom of this post and on the first post. The game is slated for release on April 2nd. I think this makes me the next Hosted Game release, but I’m not sure.
As for the future of this series, I’m well into the next story (Carousel Paradox) and the third (The War on Peace). A few weeks ago, I decided to work on both parts two and three at the same time. There are a few reasons for this, but the main one is dealing with the introduction of a second main character and setting up events between the two stories.
As for when those demos will be live, I’m not sure. I’ve had the demo kind of ready for over half a year, but I might wait a long time before releasing it, so that I can ensure consistent updates. Since I’m jumping between the two projects, there might be times when I’m working on part three and won’t have an update for part two for months. Part three, of course, won’t get a demo until after the release of part two, since there are major spoilers.
At this time, I still plan to write two other career routes for Dawn of Heroes: Mechanic and Police. I want to add a few other bits here and there; however, that is not my main focus right now. Dawn of Heroes has been a five-year passion project for me, and I’d like a little distance from it, so that I may return with fresh eyes. Also, getting into parts two and three might let me set up some events better when I go to add those additional career routes.

Hello, I was playing the demo when I spotted a typo in Breaker’s path, when breaker thanks us for the help, I choose the flirting option (the dinner one) and it says:
- Breaker stops and her tracks to turn towards me.
I think you meant to say she stopped in her tracks.
