+is an arcade wave defense game by [Gemdrop Games][gemdrop],
+built in Rust on top of [Emerald].
+
+Gemdrop Games recently took Harvest Hero Origins to [PAX West 2021][hho_pax]
+and had a very positive response from most of the players!
+Being able to watch people play the game was extremely valuable,
+the developers were able to see pain points in UI/UX design
+and can now fix them without worry.
+They were also able to see what players find fun about controlling each hero,
+which helps with the next hero planning in the full release of the game.
+
+Harvest Hero Origins is still planned to release by the end of 2021,
+please wishlist it on [Steam][hho]!
