Heroic keep saying not enough space even after disk clearing

Im trying to download marvel rivals but each time, it says I don't have enough space. I deleted multiple apps, documents, files, etc. It still said I didn't have enough space, and even worse, the available space showed in heroic decreased. I've tried multiple solutions other people said worked, but i'm still having trouble, and nothing related to rivals shows up in the log. What do i do?

you can tell heroic to ignore the warning and install anyway if you are sure you have enough space, the button to force the install is there because there are some cases where the calculation we get from the library we use can be wrong

Use something like Daisy Disk to see what’s eating space There are local Time Machine backups to watch out for too
