What better way to spend an evening than gathered around listening to a classic tale of a brave hero saving a princess from a sinister demon lord bent on ruling the world? Sure, it may be the same story you've heard time and time again, but don't old stories get better with age?

So here we find our usual crew. A hero, a demon lord, and a princess all congregating to tell the story of the hero's triumph and the defeat of a great evil. Everyone here know their role and exactly how to carry it out. But what happens when the story doesn't go exactly as we know it? What if someone were to rewrite the story to something no one within it knows how to enact? Who's responsibility is it to put the story back on its track and find the happy ending we all know and love?


Brave Hero Yuusha is a satirical love-letter to an older, simpler time of role-playing games when one's mission was solely to rid the world of a great evil and save the land. But nobody would be content if we played such a thing straight. Instead, players can look forward to a trope-shattering romp built with visuals heavily inspired from older RPGs; namely Dragon Quest, Hydelide, and Destiny of an Emperor, with extra emphasis on the former. Arm yourselves to the teeth and face off against a rogue's gallery of monsters and strange creatures as you journey to piece this broken narrative back to the way it should be!

The full game is now available for download. You do not need the Ace RTP to play!

Latest Blog

Brave Hero Yuusha EX is now free on itchio!

Hey all! This is mostly a copypaste of the other blog post on Soma Spirits, BUT!

Going forward, Brave Hero Yuusha EX, the remastered version of this game, is Name Your Own Price on itchio. (And Soma Spirits: Rebalance)

I think these versions have been out for long enough that they should be made more accessible. I do want to note that this is something that has been in consideration for quite a while and isn't a reflection of how well Soma Union is performing. But I'd rather see the games find a wider audience rather than just sit there as they have been.

Please note that the Steam versions are currently unaffected by this change. Please only buy those versions if you want the added Steam benefits or want to support the devs!

So if it's your first time diving into either of these games, I hope you'll enjoy them!

Yuusha means Hero in japanese, so that title is kinda... yeah, Brave Hero Hero :D
Yep! Or Yuusha Yuusha depending on who you ask!
No it's Brave Hero Yuusha
Made a TvTropes Page:

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/BraveHeroYuusha

Also, there's still a few typos, and this isn't all of them.:


Alseep, or something, for asleep, with one of the missing Desert Wizard people

Granpda for grandpa for the Wizard Staff.

A few textboxes start with a space? Unless that's intentional, for formatting of some kind...
Awesome! Having a TV Tropes pages for something I made feels so surreal!

Thank you for reporting the typos. Maybe when my current project is done, I'll revisit Yuusha and try to fix some of those leftovers.
Finished the game!

I defeated the Puppeteer with a Hero Strike after the Star Storm. Was that coincidence, or coded?

Item stacks are capped at 15 items. Why? Personal Choice is always an option.

Typos:

"Do you know (why) someone like me wanted to be a jester?"

Your higness...

What I do is meaningul

Into (the) singularity

Absolutely unaccptable

He's scripted to die when he reaches 50% HP. Reason for that is so that you can't out-damage your way through his dying text.
Oh, this looks like fun. Do you guys mind if I do a let's play video of this? :)
... What's the use of the attack that hits last and does only 2 damage?
There are enemies called Oozie Prince and Slick Oozie, which work like Metal Slimes in that they have a high EXP payout but they run away often and can only be hit for 1 damage otherwise.
Was the School Scenes added later in development, or am I just not looking at the right spots in the Lets Plays in the Media tab?

Because while I can dig out my saves for seeing Ashlyn's all purple self... For TVTropes reasons...

It'd be faster just to reference the Lets Plays...

Nope, as far as I remember they were always there and included in the original game. Maybe that particular LP just cut them out.
