We have been absolutely blown away by the support we've received from everyone over the last month!
From all of us on the Mystery Egg Games team: Thank you, sincerely. We appreciate each and every one of you who pitched in or signal boosted this Kickstarter-- it's been such a rollarcoaster of emotions and we can't thank you enough for helping Hero.EXE be the best it can be! Let's do one final rundown of where we stand:
The Results
Let's see what we've achieved:
100% Funding in under 24 hours: We were absolutely floored by the overwhelmingly positive response to the project! It genuinely warmed our hearts to see so many people wanting our project to succeed.
Kickstarter Staff Pick: Soon after we launched-- we were the most popular videogame on Kickstarter, and were made a Kickstarter staff pick!
Fan Art Contest: We launched a Fan Art Contest, and received some phenomenal artwork-- a bunch of which are featured in the updates!
FOUR STRETCH GOALS! (Two we achieved in just the last 3 days!)
What's Next?
Well, the team is going to take a short break for now to cool off from the rush of work over the last 4 weeks. But after that, we will be heads down working on the game for the foreseeable future.
Kickstarter Deets
We'll be shaking hands with Backerkit shortly to get your backer surveys setup! The survey will cover everything from picking your poster & keychain options, to telling us what name you would like in the credits! Please look out for that update soon!
Fan Art Contest Conclusion
With the end of our campaign, also comes the end of the Hero.EXE Fan Art Contest.
Thank you to everyone who joined in and posted their awesome artwork! We'll be announcing the winners after the judging is concluded-- stay tuned for the next update!

Dungeon Mode-- Here we come!
WE DID IT!!
We are absolutely blown away by everyone's support!!
With the breaking of the $50K barrier, we are now able to add DUNGEON MODE to the final release and upcoming beta builds. DUNGEON MODE will be Hero.EXE's own Roguelite gametype, where you will start with just an AVA and a basic deck setup and fight your way through a series of branching encounters, earning loot to upgrade your build along the way!
Less than 2 hours remain for the campaign, let's see how far we can go until then!
Thank you so much, everyone! See you on the Grid, Pilots!
Thank You for 45K! Beach Episode Unlocked! **20 HOURS LEFT!**

45K Hit! Time for Fun at the Beach!
Thank you, thank you, thank you~!!
We can't help but feel the fun and the sun shine upon our smiling faces knowing that the top anime trope of all time will be added as an extra Story Bonus to Hero.EXE! Enjoy an entire extra Server World worth of Slice-of-Life interactions from the whole cast, complete with beach attire outfits!
We're at 20 hours left-- CAN WE HIT DUNGEON MODE?
LET'S GO, PILOTS!!

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN
Attention Pilots, the finish line is just around the corner! Less than 24 hours remain before the campaign for Hero.EXE concludes. Thank you sincerely to everyone that has joined us so far and gave their support by pitching in or spreading the word, we truly appreciate it! Let's check in on our Fan Art Contest and the state of the campaign one last time--
Fan Art Contest - Last Call!
The Fan Art Contest will end at the same time as the Campaign, but is still going strong even now! Here are some highlights of the awesome work we've seen so far from the community!
There is still time left if you would like to submit your own piece! Show it to us on our Community Discord server, or use #HeroExeFanArt on Twitter to let us see your awesome artwork-- just make sure to tag us on @HeroExeGame before the campaign ends to make sure we see it!
With less than 24 hours to go, we've already cleared TWO Stretch Goals and are a mere 1% away from hitting the next! Let's see how far we can go together!!
Fan Art Shoutout:
We received TWO outstanding pieces from Eluchu with completely different styles!! We cannot believe the small details on those screens Lax is toying with-- looks like he's tuned into our Kickstarter right along with us! He's pretty good at his job after all, huh?! And the piece with Hunger? We're absolutely tickled-- from the little sleeping cap and expression glancing in the fridge... it's just so perfect! LOVE. IT. Thank you so much, Eluchu!!
BIG THANK YOU to the Ailuri devs for this amazingly adorable art-- Ailuri looks so ready to give Valentine a hug! We genuinely gave audible "awww"s from this..! <3
In this beautifully rendered hand-drawn adventure, you play as Ailuri, a small hero set on a mission to protect the world from environmental destruction. Complete vast levels, rescue animals, and defeat massive bosses in this fantastical, detailed game!
Every animal Ailuri rescues goes to their Sanctuary where you can then interact with them-- defeat all the enemies in each level to protect your new friends from extinction! You go, Ailuri!!
Also if you want to give Ailuri a cuddle just like Valentine-- you absolutely can! Get the most adorable & heroic Red Panda for yourself: in lovable stuffed fluffy format!
**48 HOURS LEFT** 200% FUNDED-- Thank you!! Boss Rush Mode Unlocked!

40K Hit! Boss Rush Unlocked!
We've reached our second Stretch Goal! Thank you to everyone that has supported us and helped us come this far! Now that we have reached $40K (and 200%!) in funding we will be able to add Boss Rush Mode to the final release-- as well as Beta Builds!
Fight every boss in sequence using your deck from the main game!
Bosses are one of Hero.EXE's secret prides-- the CHAOS shines through during these battles, making the player quickly bob & weave attacks while thinking on their feet! Boss battles allow for special quirks and mechanics that are unique to each one to form a formidable challenge! How fast can YOU clear each one?
What's Next?
We are now less than 48 hours away from the end of our campaign-- BUT, only $3k away from our next stretch goal: the Beach Episode, complete with a self-contained server world to explore, and slice-of-life moments for the cast to enjoy!
From there, we would be a mere 25% away from Dungeon Mode, the Rogue-Lite mode where you fight your way through increasingly challenging encounters to build up your character & deck with the loot you collect from battles, NPCs, merchants, and treasure nodes! Can you make it to the end from nothing but the starter deck and a strong sense of will? Let's push the Stretch Goals together to find out!
Thank you for supporting Hero.EXE, pilots!
Fan Art Spotlight:
For today's fanart spotlight we have this incredible artwork from @ObesityKid! From the fluffy hair to the audiowaves, this illustration is marvelously striking! We're taken in by the detail and the shine in Melody's eyes-- thank you, ObesityKid! What a fantastic piece!!
For today's shoutout: here's a really neat looking open-world action/exploration/cooking/resource-gathering game!
Space Chef is a game that will take you across the galaxy exploring different planets to hunt aliens and/or gather materials to make food to fulfill your customer's orders! Do well and you'll be able to earn enough to upgrade and add onto your equipment, further enabling you on your quest for culinary and financial success!
