Horn of the Warlord is live with 1.1.0 update!

I am thrilled to announce that Horn of the Warlord is now live!

I'd like to thank everyone who contributed to this game by creating content, helping with marketing, providing translations, reporting bugs, suggesting improvements, as well as my friends and family who supported me throughout this project.

I created this game as my dream project and as a tribute to the old classic, strategy games I used to play on my Amiga and my first PC. My only hope is that it brings enjoyment to others, and I truly hope you will have fun playing it.

I did my best to deliver the highest quality possible, with engaging gameplay, challenging opponents and scenarios.

While today marks the full release, I still have plenty of ideas for the future, and I'll continue listening to your feedback and improving the game over time.

Thank you.

Good luck and have fun.
