- Oh So Hero! Daku Day 2026 - 1 August 2026
Happy Daku Day! Thank you for supporting Oh So Hero! (or in this case, Oh So Daku!)We are here to bring you your annual dose of Daku~ Pardon the nocturnal post; it's still July 31st here in the States ;}After posting Oh So Hero! Comic Issue #1 Page 21 and sharing Dev Preview #49 on backer sites, we are wrapping up Daku Day with even more treats. First is a high quality version of ThatPuggy's "Oh So Daku!" promo art. If you're playing Oh So Hero! here on Steam, you can enjoy a naughty version of the game's store art via the Daku Day Celebration collection on SteamGridDB.

- Oh So Hero! v1.12.005 Beta Build - 16 June 2026
Summary:This is the twelfth build following the release of Act 1. As mentioned in recent posts including our launch-versary and development roadmap—as well as our dev preview (backer sites)—this is primarily a technical build with fixes, difficulty adjustments, and a preview of our new water shader. While it's an overall improvement to v1.11, there are still some regressions that I feel make this a bit unstable, so I'm labeling v1.12 as a beta build. New players should stick to v1.10. As for Steam, v1.12 replaces v1.11 on the beta branch, and later when I have a stable build ready (possibly v1.13), both the main branch (currently on v1.10) and the beta branch will get the new stable version.I previously announced v1.12 would be available last month, and I'm sorry for not delivering on that. We're now on a bi-monthly build release schedule since a lot of our work is taking more passes ov…
- Oh So Hero! Launch-versary & Roadmap - 24 May 2026
Message from Ket:Hi everyone! Wow~ It's been a whole year since the launch of Oh So Hero! Act 1 on Steam. 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 fina…
- Oh So Hero! v1.11.001 Beta Build - 16 April 2026
Summary:This is the eleventh build following the release of Act 1. This build is not recommended for new players. New players should use v1.10 (currently live on Steam). This v1.11 Beta Build is the first build in a series of occasional experimental builds that can be used to preview new features, but may contain some game breaking bugs. On Steam, a new "beta" branch has been created so you all can check it out there.We have been busy with localization, so I apologize that I couldn't show off anything more interesting. But I'm fixing bugs more quickly now (v1.12 will arrive within a month as a legit bug fix build) and I'm looking at getting new features done soon. Thanks for your patience and support! =}Build changelog:Here are the changes made since the last release (v1.10.001)...New features:New Options Screen UX (added between v1.10.000 & v1.10.044)This is not a full redesign. I just…
- Build Delay (v1.11) - 9 March 2026
Hi Everyone! We hope you enjoyed our latest update, Oh So Hero! v1.10, which introduced Joe's Throw Moves! We really wanted to give the player more capabilities from the start of Act 1, and we feel Joe is now equipped with all he needs to begin his adventure!We've been putting in our best effort to stay on a semi-regular schedule of monthly releases. However, this isn't always possible, and we're letting you know now that this month is one of those exceptions.For context, we currently have a team of 11 people working on translating Oh So Hero! into 10 languages, and we have more people and languages to be added soon! This means our priority now is on localization, and part of that requires font and text updates across the entire game. Because of the broad scope of this work, as well as diminishing tasks to close out Act 1, we've decided to skip the March update of OSH, and aim for an Ap…

- Problem with the v1.05 build / Rollback to v1.04 - 2 September 2025
Hi everyone. Players of Oh So Hero v1.05.000/001 have discovered a progression-halting soft-lock bug in the Forbidden Bayou. As the player travels east past the entrance to Hiroto Dojo, they will encounter a spot where the camera locks in place for an enemy gauntlet, but the enemies never spawn, preventing the player from continuing the game. This bug (sometimes labelled a "regression") was likely introduced by accident while working on localization code or fixing other bugs. We will be rolling back the live Steam build to v1.04 until we can get this issue resolved. For everyone else, you can simply download/install the v1.04 build from the previous month. Because there were no new features added with the v1.05 build, we will not be creating a hotfix. Also, we still need time to create a proper fix for this progression-halting bug. In other words, please wait for v1.06, which I plan to…

- Oh So Hero! v1.04.001 - 1 August 2025
Summary:Happy Daku Day! It's a bit late for that even in the US, but it's still July 31st here as I type this. We've had a low-key public presence following the launch of Act 1 and subsequent bug fixes, but we're working on bringing more people aboard to help with operations, so perhaps next year will bring proper Daku fanfare!For the time being, we have a new build for you all with two new animations by our Creative Director and Chief Animator, Red!

We've created this Oh So Hero! 4K Wallpaper featuring character art and logo by Redemption3445, background art by ArtyTheFrog & Red, and additional graphic design by Red & myself (Ket Ralus).
