Oh So Hero! Launch-versary & Roadmap
Message from Ket:
Hi everyone! Wow~ It's been a whole year since the launch of Oh So Hero! Act 1 on Steam and itch. To celebrate the anniversary, we had ThatPuggy create art for this occasion. Thanks, Puggy! And thanks to you all for buying and supporting our game! =}
In addition, we're happy to present our new development roadmap! It has been six years since our last roadmap. The road is long, but you wonderful people have all kept us supported and ready to ride~
This roadmap answers an important question: How many acts are in Oh So Hero? It's 3 Acts! As we mentioned at launch, the base game is Act 1, and the next two acts are paid DLC. When the three acts are completed and combined, it will create the full game experience we had planned from the beginning.
The focus of this roadmap is Act 2, which is now starting development. Red is full-speed ahead on Act 2, while I (Ket) am wrapping up some final post-launch work for Act 1 and supporting Red for Act 2 on the side. We have a lot of features planned for Act 2!
Obviously, there will be plenty of new characters! But also, thanks to a new level editor and increased dev experience, we'll be able to make Act 2 twice as big as Act 1. While Act 1 puts the "sex" in Sextroidvania, Act 2 will flesh out the "-troidvania" side of things in a way that shows our full passion for world building and level design. Of course, there will also be loads of hot, steamy animations to fill your time in Act 2~
But before we get to Act 2, we still have a couple updates coming to Act 1. A new version, v1.12, will be coming by June. This will have some minor improvements and difficulty balancing. Future Act 1 releases will arrive as the features and fixes are completed, including localization. A new free demo of Oh So Hero! will arrive later this year; it will have a similar scope as our previous Pre Edition II demo, but with some of the updates made to our latest version of Act 1.
Preparing this post has been a lot of work already, so we will have to say farewell for now. There are so many details we can get into, but we will continue to give sneak peeks to our backers through our ongoing development preview series. And when Act 1 work has wrapped later this year, we will also be providing development builds of Act 2 to backers as well. Visit our website, ribbit.fun, to find out how to support us and join our community on Discord!
Thank you all for making this year a blast! Happy World Turtle Day! -Ket =}
Message from Red:
Hey guys, just dropping by real quick to let you know our next dev preview post will be on the 10th! Although we will soon start Act 2 dev releases, a lot of the early enemy art assets are close to done! So look forward to seeing them in action!
You will be seeing a couple of the new locations of Act 2 on the 10th, so I'll see you then!
Take care, everyone!

When will Act 2 be ready?
It'll be several years of development. Stay tuned~
i just hope can fuck with Tunist 😁😋❤️
Happy 1 year anniversary! 🎉 It’s so amazing to see how far this game has come since the early Patreon builds. It is officially my favorite +18 game ever! The animations are top-tier, the gameplay is smooth, and the story hooks you from the start.I also just need to say how much I absolutely love the characters! Joey is such an incredible protagonist—he's charming, fun to play as, and just the perfect lead. And Kaylee is an absolute goddess, a true femme fatale who steals every single scene she is in!Please bring more Bi/MxF content in the future! The chemistry in that one scene between Joey and Kaylee was completely mind-blowing, and we definitely need more of it. Sending you all the love and support for the next updates! Keep up the legendary work! ✨❤️
Thank you, Jerry! We think you will enjoy Act 2~
I can't wait for Act 2 & 3, and whatever else you guys cook up! Gonna be eatin' goooooood... 🤤🥰💚
Fingers crossed one of the new enamys or side charecter is a skunk. Lol
This is a perfect overview on the progress of the game as a whole. As if I wasn't already hyped enough for Act 2, I had no idea the enviornments would be as varied and expansive as that. I'm assuming Act 3 will also get a detailed overview around this stage of completion for Act 2, also can't wait to see the difficulty and moveset increase as the game goes along.
Yes! We will do a new roadmap after Act 2 is released that will go into Act 3 in more detail.
Really hyped for act 2. Keep up the great work.
congratulations and can't wait!!
It's been 1 year my favorite game been released, this is such an amazing feeling And I'm so hyped to see MORE of this project~ 💛💛✨ THANK YOU SO MUCH KET 🐸
Congratulations everyone and best of luck with Act 2 :D
How much those paid DLCs gonna be cost at? I been playing this game for days since I enjoy how turned out it become.
The DLC prices will be determined based on market prices and economic conditions at the time of release. It will take us some years to develop each act, and we don't know where inflation will go during that time. But if things hold steady, we are expecting each DLC to be priced the same as the base game ($10 USD). There will be additional pricing consideration for Act 3 if it ends up being larger than planned, but it's too early to determine that now.
