Hey all, just wanted to toss out a quick update on what we've been up to.

We're currently in the middle of a HoN Stats update, and will be releasing it once we've finished up a few more things and have tested it against today's Heroes of Newerth 2.0 patch.

While we're still in the dev process, I'd like to open up the comments to any suggestions you may have. Tell us what you think, and what you'd like to see in an updated HoN Stats!

Huzzah! The new bits:

• Added a refresh button to the player list view.
• New options window! Along with defining a sort order,
  you can now choose the stats that appear in the player list.
• HoN Stats now tracks SMR (solo matchmaking rank),
  TMR (team matchmaking rank), and Average GPM (gold per minute).
• Bug fixes!

Go git 'er, cowboy.

You, there. Sir!

Not sure if you are willing to spend FREE on HoN Stats for iPhone?

Well we've just make this deal extra sweet by releasing HoN Stats for Android!

That's right, not only do you get HoN Stats for iPhone for free, but we'll also throw in a HoN Stats for Android at no extra charge! It's like getting two things for free!

For those that haven't been following along, these are the device usage numbers for users of HoN Stats, our new profile tracking app for Heroes of Newerth, a Defense of the Ancients style game that is currently in the late stages of semi-open beta testing (with about 1.3 million registered players).

What's new in this version:

• Player list is now sortable by PSR, KDR, Win percentage, and Name
• EM percentage added to player stats
• Misc interface updates
• Bug fixes!

Apple's really been on their game in regards to review turnaround lately, so this could go live anytime now.

Update: 1.1 is now live!

It's up, it's up!

So, what do a couple of Heroes of Newerth playing iPhone game developers do on their off time, when not working on apps at the day job or playing Heroes of Newerth?

They make a Heroes of Newerth iPhone app, naturally.

Josh and I would like to introduce HoN Stats, a free iPhone app that'll enable you to track the uh, HoN statistics of yourself and friends.

Introducing HoN Stats!

Hrmm.

No wait, that's not it.





HoN Stats!

Okay, so this is how it works.

Players added to your main view are dynamically sorted by PSR (player skill ranking), allowing you to see at a glance the best players in your crew (and ensuring that I'll be eternally listed somewhere in the middle). Tapping a player's name takes you to the detailed stats view, showing off the player's specific totals and game averages.

While we're submitting the application to Apple today, predicting App Store approval dates is like a crap shoot, so we'll just say that we're fairly confident the app will be available sometime during the month of January. :]

(oh and just to clarify again, HoN Stats will be a free release)

Clan support will be added in a future version, and we're looking at the feasibility of incorporating both hero and item databases, with some really cool functionality to tie everything together. If you have suggestions or features that you'd like to see, let us know, and keep an eye out here for news and updates.

Lastly, a huge thank you to the fine folks at S2Games. Without the Heroes of Newerth API, this project would've been near impossible, and the extensive HoN fansite kit made the designy bits come together that much faster. Thanks guys, ya'll rock.
