Dear Blackthorn Arena players. Blackthorn Arena has finally celebrated its first anniversary since its release! We would like to thank all the players for their support for this year. With the help of your support, our game has grown and improved a lot, but we are also aware that it has a series of problems and shortcomings. Even so, you still gave us the greatest degree of tolerance and understanding, which is the greatest wealth for such a lack of funds and experience of independent game studio. We will continue to do our best to improve and perfect Blackthorn Arena, and will continue to develope more games in the future!
