New Enemies!

howtobeahero post New Enemies! from patreon

So, the forests and mountain are a bit barren. Right now there's really only elves, oni, and bats.

Time to spice it up a bit! The next update will contain six new enemies. Here's some concept art for them.

The mountain will have the minotaur, baslisk, and harpy enemies.
The forest will contain the myconid and werewolf...

That sounds like the title to a shitty tabletop game. Nope, it's just some quick notes to my shitty game.

How to be a Hero 0.1e

howtobeahero post How to be a Hero 0.1e from patreon

The next update is here! While not as big as I would like it to be, it sets the stage for the rest of the 0.1 updates.

The previous saves are NOT compatible with this version! A complete overhaul of the battle system was done and several new characters have been added. View Post

Concept Art: Oni

howtobeahero post Concept Art: Oni from patreon

Concept art for the oni at the top of the mountain! Each brings something different to the table, hopefully you'll become quite familiar with them.

Shuten has changed the most since conception but everyone else is mostly the same.

Public Post: Delays

howtobeahero post Public Post: Delays from patreon

Sorry for the delay everyone but I've been working hard both on the update and on personal work. On the downside, I haven't had nearly as much time to work on the game as I would like. On the plus side I've been able to fine tune quite a few things.

Look forward to the next update soon!

In the last update you could get a new recruit to join Lady Sluttony's  church. The next update is going to continue that particular story line  and, eventually, they will join you at the camp. How they look will also  change as you continue down their little questline. 

Not everyone will  receive this...

howtobeahero post Future Update Roadmap: 0.1e and beyond from patreon

For those of you who finished 0.1d, you may be familiar with this particular half elf. They are the newest student of Lady Sluttony, the first in years even. And you are their teacher! The next update will feature them heavily. Here's the plan for 0.1e

howtobeahero post Future Update Preview: Oni from patreon

Atop the mountain, far away from the elves, live a group of oni. All are powerful but they tend to keep to themselves. Here are two of the oni you can meet, Hoshikuma and Shuten.

Concept Art: Zinia

howtobeahero post Concept Art: Zinia from patreon

Here's the very first drawing of Zinia! You can already see some things have changed compared to her final character and looks. She's still racist, though. Are her kinks still true? You'll have to find out yourself.

How to be a Hero 0.1c (No Zinia)

howtobeahero post How to be a Hero 0.1c (No Zinia) from patreon

The newest version of the game. Zinia does NOT work in this current version so do not attempt to start her route. It won't crash the game, I believe, but it will not work. She will be added back once I've worked out some bugs. Expect that very shortly. This update is purely for people who want to experience all the new stuff...

Update Progress: Zinia

howtobeahero post Update Progress: Zinia from patreon

Zinia is one of the focuses of the next update. She's had a lot of time poured into her, more than anyone else. While she only has one unique CG so far, she does have a lot to say. Zinia is one of only two characters that will talk about the things you've done in the game, good or bad.

She is the first major romance character ...

Patreon still hasn't processed any payments so this post is open to the public.

The next big update for the game is still being worked on. I found another bug that was quickly squished from the older version.

The next update will have Zinia's route at least started, more work on the Plague Elf, all the other elves will b...

Update Progress

howtobeahero post Update Progress from patreon

One of my play testers did something I didn't expect one would do without  cheating. As a result I added a hidden boss to the game. I won't say  exactly how to get them but I'm sure you can guess.

She's actually been fun to work because:
A) She's not an elf
B)  She actually has a bit more tactics involved ...

Hey there, everyone. I've been more busy than I'd like but there's still work that's been done. The first month's payment hasn't gone through so this post will be public.

The Pure Elf has new art. The Half Elves have new art. There's new writing. Also the Male Half Elf's scenes have been almost completely rewritten and he only...

More user friendly improvements. Since I released the demo I've received  a lot of feedback and one of the more common complaints is people don't  know what to do at certain points. Hopefully this will help.

When mousing over parts of the map they will highlight so you know what you're clicking. Or that they're click...
