Greetings Rune Hero community!
Over the past month, our primary focus has been on ensuring the stability and quality of the pre-alpha version. Instead of developing many new features, we have concentrated on refining and polishing all existing systems. Additionally, we have fully developed the much-anticipated Skeleton King Boss, which promises to be a thrilling challenge for our players.
Key Data from June
1. Social Media Growth: Our X platform saw significant growth with 137K impressions, a 21% engagement rate, and adding 4200 real users in the past 28 days.
2. Discord Expansion: Our Discord community grew from 1500 to 5200 members, adding 3700 real users.
3. Quality Guardian Recruitment: Prior to the pre-alpha test, we recruited a small number of Quality Guardians for internal testing. Within an hour, we received over 100 applications. Their diligent testing and feedback helped us fix over 50 bugs and optimization suggestions in just a week, greatly aiding our preparations for the public test.
4. Community Engagement: We opened a channel for players to obtain test codes by boosting our Discord server. In less than two hours, we gained over 50 boosts.
5. Player Enthusiasm: The pre-alpha test began with immense enthusiasm. Some players defeated the final boss within hours of the game’s launch, even though this content was planned for the following days. Players have formed teams, discussed gameplay strategies, and created guides and videos showcasing their experiences.
6. Organic Growth: Remarkably, all of this growth and engagement happened with 0 advertising costs, driven entirely by players’ love for the game and organic sharing.
Rune Hero is more than just a game; it’s a community. As TZ mentioned in a recent post, we always stand with our users.
We apologize to those who couldn’t participate in the small-scale pre-alpha test. This is just the beginning, and we are working hard to develop further content, aiming to deliver a beloved game experience in the alpha test.
Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm. Stay tuned for more updates, and we look forward to seeing you in the game!
Until next time,
The Rune Hero Team
