New Enemies!
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 enemy.These guys will not have nearly as much work as the others and will most likely contain only one CG each but they will ...
Public Post: Bug Fixes and Drow
That sounds like the title to a shitty tabletop game. Nope, it's just some quick notes to my shitty game.https://mega.nz/#!kZw2gSpZ!6w-Ue8bQ_zWO2eiIQkJ5QLlnMRrCRijqOUPy1lqc4Po Fighting the drow no longer crashes the game. The drow has a unique sprite. The drow now has a unique CG! The drow drops loot. You can continue fighting the normal elves after a certain point in the game. They don't give nearly as much power and don't enhance ar...
How to be a Hero 0.1e
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.You can download the update here: https://mega.nz/#!0E5HVZKZ!s68LZbnab1s3fraOvdmMnJ3FR-oj87FqA7IligB9YjAChangelog: Defense is now a thing!

Concept Art: Oni
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
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!
Public Post: Followers
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 treatment and, as usual, the half elf will be the test bed for it.
Future Update Roadmap: 0.1e and beyond
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 0.1e0.1e: Half Elf Tutoring: Lesson 2 Shop: -Beatrice route start. -Zinia route part 2. -Plague elf route start. Oni intro.This will contain 2 cg at the least and a few new/modified sprites. 0.1e...
Future Update Preview: Oni
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
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)
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 right now and wait for her later.The big update is here. You can download it at:https://mega.nz/#!IMpGTIQJ!UZwYs9CV...
Update Progress: Slight Delay
Sorry everyone, had to work today so that ate into a chunk of my dev time. Pushing the release ahead 24 hours just to make sure everything's perfect. Thank you for your patience!
Update Progress: Update Near Complete
Expect the update to the demo within the next 48 hours!
Update Progress: Zinia
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 and I plan on doing a lot with her.Right now, there's a few 'stages' of affection you can unlock for he...
Public Update Progress
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 be complete. Also a bunch of QoL changes to the battle system. I still can't get quest markers working but that is on m...
Update Progress
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 elfB) She actually has a bit more tactics involved in her fight. She can heal herself, deal lust damage, and has super attacks depending on certain circumstances.Also her sprite is...
Update Progress
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 shares one asset with the female half elf now.A 'wait' button has been added in ba...
Update Progress
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 clickable at all.Also, if an area has an important event unlocked a ! will appear. Hopefully this will help guide people alo...

I'm going to constantly add more to the game but for a first release this should keep you busy for like... 30 minutes.At least.
