- Pocket Heroes v0.041a (6 Sep, 2006) -
---------------------------------------

Overview
--------
Here you have the second public alpha version of Pocket Heroes game. 
Unfortunately, this is just an alpha, i.e. this version still does not 
contain full featured game play. PocketHeroes is a DonateWare (freeware 
with a reminder to be charitable) product, i.e. you can use it freely. 
If you feel PocketHeroes is useful, a donation will be appreciated. 
The donation will enable me to justify spending more time to release 
new versions.
