It's cold. Very cold.

Merry Christmas, everybody. Here's an update. This update adds the Northern Sea location, so you can go and get the Silver Orb now.

Get the update here (https://www.mediafire.com/file/n8vvlmicx3ilycd), then extract to your MGQ Parts 1-3 directory.

In the next few months, I'll be posting smaller updates to the existing locations that flesh them out a bit more. I'll be adding more dialogue, a couple fights, new camp scenes, new H-scenes, and so on.

That's all for now. Have fun.

EDIT: I've also gone ahead and created a Fanbox page. It's basically Pixiv's equivalent of Patreon. If you're interested in using it, you can. But you won't be missing anything if you don't donate. https://www.pixiv.net/fanbox/creator/4907258https://www.mediafire.com/file/p8wt5wewh75iw9o/Monster_Girl_Quest_NG+_Part_3_Demo_Update_%28v._12-25-2019%29_.zip/filehttps://www.mediafire.com/file/p8wt5wewh75iw9o/Monster_Girl_Quest_NG+_Part_3_Demo_Update_%28v._12-25-2019%29_.zip/file

Update on the Update (Northern Sea)

Sorry.

As the image and caption said, I'm sorry I didn't make a post sooner. The last few months have been a little messy for me and the Blogspot page simply slipped my mind. The Discord server is still very active, but I forget that a lot of people aren't using that, so I tend to forget to actually update the Blogspot page.

Anyway, I'm planning to release the Northern Sea update this month. It's not that big of an update, but with it, you'll be able to finally get all six orbs for the Garuda Girl. In the next few months after the Northern Sea Update, I'm planning to release smaller content updates that have things like H-scenes, extra fights, extra story branches, etc. There's a lot of half-finished content that I've been sitting on for months to literal years at this point that would flesh out the game more, and I want to finally get it finished up and implemented. After that, the next update (and the last one for Part 3) will be

Well, you'll see where it is when we get to that.

I'll make a post later this month when the update is ready. I hope you enjoy it. Sorry for the long waits, as always.

Info on the next update (Northern Sea)

When you can't even make a new blog post on schedule.

Hi. I mentioned in a comment on the update post that I would make a new post about the next update in a few days. So here it is.

The next update will be primarily for the Northern Sea, where the Poseidoness and Silver Orb are. Since this is the last "Orb" area that isn't finished, this means that Part 3 is almost done (f i n a l l y). After that, the remaining areas in Sentora will be finished, and then it's onto Hellgondo. No release date yet, but it's already being worked on.

That's all for now.

NG+ News and MGQ Remaster

Just a Valkyrie. Nothing unusual here.

Seven months without a post. I know that's an outrageously long amount of time, and I can only apologize for that.

The reason I haven't posted in so long is because I didn't want to make a new post that didn't have an update released. I realize now that that was an incredibly stupid thing to do, but it wouldn't be the first stupid decision I've made with NG+, so bear with me here.

As for what's going on with NG+ right now, the Colosseum update's been in a state of "basically done" for awhile now, but I keep pushing it back to either add new content or polish up what's already there. As it stands now, it's probably the single biggest update I've made for NG+ up to this point, so hopefully that gets you a little excited for what's coming. Personally, I don't think anything I release at this point will justify waiting so long for it, but hopefully you'll have fun with it regardless. I'm hoping to have it ready fairly soon, but I don't want to jinx it, so I'll just say it's still "in progress". As always, test builds are posted on the Discord server, if you want to see what's being worked on and tested at the moment and don't want to wait.

But there is something else you can play in the meantime.

A few months ago, I was throwing around a few ideas on the Discord server about the possibility of releasing an "HD" upscaled version of the original Monster Girl Quest. It's an idea that's been rattling around in my head for years, and I even made a mockup of the NG+ title screen in 1080p once to see how it could theoretically work. At first, I assumed that such a thing would be impossible, or at the very least, far more trouble than it's actually worth. Not only would you have to upscale over 5000 individual images, but everything in the game is hardcoded for an 800x600 resolution, so you would have to change that, too. It didn't seem feasible, at first. But the more I sat down and thought about how it could be done, the more I realized that it wasn't nearly as difficult as I first thought.

Then, a couple of people in the Discord server (including Sore Eyes, the creator of the Fan Demo), ended up actually making it into a real thing. There is now a "remastered" version of MGQ that you can play in either 960x720 or 1440x1080. Every image has been upscaled with waifu2x, the game now runs in Onscripter, and many, many bugs and typos from the original game have been fixed (there were a ton). You can download and play that by using the links in here.

In addition to fixes, there are two new features available in the remaster from the Special Config menu.

- Ability to skip story H-scenes in addition to fight H-scenes.
- Optional spirit turn counters and resummons like NG+

And a few more new features on top of that.

All credit goes to Sore Eyes and lugia19. All I did was prove it could be done.

That's all for now. Colosseum Soon™.

More Colosseum Information

This is the only remotely SFW crop of this picture I can make.

I thought I should give an update on the Colosseum's progress.

It's still going to take some time, but there's a reason for that. It's probably the biggest single update NG+ has had so far. There are four new fights in this update, and each one has its own H-scene with new CG. Chrome's Mansion is also getting a new h-scene  and two new CGs (left unfinished in the last update). In addition to that, there will be quite a few new camp scenes added for the party members, as well (many of those will also be H-scenes).

Because of that, I've been spending most of my time recently getting new CGs drawn for this update. There are 4 new CGs from me (one being the Alma Elma above), and at least 4 from jiffic. 

Since it's a bigger update than usual, it's taking some time to get everything ready. But it is progressing, and should hopefully be finished either this month or next month.

That's all for now.

Info on next update

Can't go wrong with a cute Tamamo.


Quick post about what's happening next.

First thing. You probably already figured this out because I'm awful at keeping release builds and test builds separated, but the next area is Grand Noah and the Colosseum. I accidentally left it accessible in a release build when I was fixing other bugs. But it's gone now. That will hopefully be ready to release either in September or October.

Next thing, I've started (attempting to) uncensor the original game's CGs for the major characters in the game (knights, spirits, etc.). I'm not doing anything fancy, just removing the mosaic censoring. I didn't bother with anything like that before because I didn't think people really cared about that sort of thing. Turns out they do care. A lot. So you can look forward to some uncensored CGs in the next update, too.

That's all for now.
