Check out the talented @plabs.bsky.social playing HeroSquare! 🔥 In the stream he completes an achievement worthy no-powerup-run of green zone (I should add an achievement for that!). And also discovers brand new boss cheese I wasn't even aware of 😅 #indiedev #indiegames #solodev

Read some very nice words on HeroSquare 💖 "I think this game is the definition of a hidden gem. Smooth control, variety of puzzles and it can get VERY difficult. Happy I took a chance on this game." The best part of being a dev is knowing that people enjoy your work! #indiegames #solodev
