About this game

The developer's description, from the game's Steam store page.

Step into Tarethiel, a world under siege by the Forces of Hell. Face Demon Lords, ancient monstrosities and fallen angels as you hack and slash your path through endless hordes of the undead. Hero Siege is a fast paced Pixel Art ARPG featuring an expansive roster of unique classes, deep build experimentation, and a player driven economy.

Craft your hero through two main skill trees and individual sub-skill trees that reshape how every active ability works. Combined with a massive item pool and powerful crafting options, the game offers limitless build possibilities; from blood hungry melee bruisers and bow wielding archers to gun slinging demon slayers, sentry engineers, summoners, spell casting mages and everything in between.

Hero Siege evolves in seasonal cycles every four months, delivering fresh content, new systems, items, events, and quality of life improvements. As a small, experienced team, we work closely with our community to improve the game based directly on valuable player feedback.
