Dev had to take a dayjob and completion seems really really unlikely. Marked as abandoned until something changes.
Currently in a mess and not worth the time, not worth the price. There was a lot going for this, but the dev decided to completely change gears and remake this from an isometric tactics game and turn it into a mount and blade style game or something from the looks of very sparse dev logs on steam. Don't like the direction it's taking and the dev posted in steam forum that he's got a new full-time job so things will go even slower. if he would just have refined the old isometric experience a tiny bit, it would have been great. but it feels abandoned. skip it.
I like the game but it feels abandoned.
It's okay but it's been two years since any kind of update or devlog, so it's abandoned. Which is a shame.
No updates since 2022. This game was abandoned. It is currently a rough tech demo. Do NOT buy.
I love Hammerheart's setting/theme but as it was my first game it's really poorly made, at least compared to my standards now. The most realistic scenario for the future would be a new game similar to Hammerheart, with much more polish, content and new features including multiplayer. Maybe free keys for long-time Hammerheart players. But that's just an idea at the moment and I'm not working on it from the lead developer thats all im gonna say.

Hammerheart is Good. To the few of you who happen to stumble upon this review, let me just begin by saying that Hammerheart is akin to that of a baby dragon in terms of potential. I will not lie, as of this review it lacks a lot of gameplay (I beat the story on my second attempt at 70 mins of playtime), but what's there really shows how incredible this game could be. It just needs time to mature. It's a challenging game where initial positioning and troop composition are key, while also requiring you to adapt and react to the evolving situation with each encounter. You can arrange your men into a formation before the enemies arrive, but they'll always be coming from different directions. One mistake such as letting a flank fall could cost you a run as your warriors will never respawn and those who do survive may need to be treated with medicine that you don't have. Overall, Hammerheart is one of those games that will blossom into something truly unique and challenging given enough time. Somehow, it's a game that I never knew I wanted, yet am happy to have found. If you want a taste for yourself, try the demo, or give it a buy.
beautiful combat, too much fun cant wait to see to the future with this game.
