Early Beta Access Welcome to Early Access! For those of you jumping right in, keep a few things in mind: Controls are strictly keyboard or controller. Mouse support is available for most menus. Achievements and Trading Cards will be implemented soon! Many areas are unavailable off the path of the main storyline. There's about a 10% chance of an error occurring after saving or loading. The save file is still fine. Throughout development we'll constantly add more content, improvements and patches. We're planning on allowing restricted access to certain areas to test out mechanics and minigames. We're a small team so we may not get to everyone's questions or concerns. We will be reading everything though. About the Game When was the last time you played a game, any game really, where you walked into someone's home, nonchalantly opened drawers, cabinets, picked locks, upturned a bed and talked to the freaking homeowner in hopes of finding something you could loot? Oh, right before this game? Yeah I thought so. Aside from more humble games like Skyrim, where you had to steal items instead of taking them, every game that has item management lets you play the bad guy without being the bad guy. Let me tell you something: NPCs hate your guts, they just can't say it to your face! Just cleared a forest of roving bandits? Well they were the only ones keeping a population of meerkats in check. The local farms can't keep them at bay and you've just triggered the worst national food shortage in the past decade. Good job, hero! I think it's time for some payback. You Are Not The Hero is a 2D Action Platform RPG that ditches the battle system to focus on richer RPG gameplay elements. Instead of playing a traditional hero that saves the world, you're playing a bystander swept into the affairs of heroes and villains alike. You play as Petula, an unemployed, emotionally charged, ill-tempered, otherwise average young woman. With the royal army hot on their heels, the heroes have made their way to your village where they begin scavenging for supplies in everyone's homes. After you confront them for stealing your pendant, they rush off to continue their quest, giving you a quest of your own to retrieve it.
