I will be releasing a bug-fixed version of Heroes,
hopefully within a week (I've actually alread got
*a* version 2 ready, but I want to see if anything
more shows up), so if anyone is tempted to play
it post-comp I'd recommend waiting for Release 2,
especially as one person found a serious bug that makes
one story effectively unwinnable unless you send email
to the author who handholds you through putting the
game back in an unbroken state.

Also, in the rush to ship it, I forgot to credit my
betatesters, who reported huge swaths of bugs which
even got fixed, too. Thanks to Adam Biltcliffe,
Chris Hecker, and Jonathan Blow.
