I don't like Blogspot very much.

Crop for a new CG


So it's been...a little bit of time since I posted anything here. I have been posting more frequent progress updates on the Discord server. But I know a lot of people don't like using Discord in general. And besides that, my server's...special, anyway. Blogspot at this point does feel pretty outdated, and I never really was a huge fan of it to begin with, but that's really no excuse. I kept telling myself I'd just make another Blogspot post when the update was done and then I could surprise everyone, but it's just not worth it. So I'll just talk about what's happening right now.

I had a longer post planned going into a little more detail about why it's taken so long. But honestly, I don't think anyone's interested in reading about that. Another time, maybe. But not now. Instead I'll just say, I'm still working on the final update to Part 3, and obviously it's a big one. Here are some of the things you can expect from it.

  • The Monsterpedia. I've fixed up pretty much all the issues with it. Request scenes work again (for NG+ monsters, original monsters will be fixed too), I rewrote a lot of the code to work better in general. I also fixed a bunch of bugs and oversights with both the Monsterpedia and the Records page. Did you know losing to Granberia by getting beaten to a pulp in the original game counted as an orgasm according to the records page? I'm not even kidding.

  • H-scenes. There's a lot of them. There are scenes – literally dozens of them probably – that I've left unfinished for the longest time, or finished them and just never managed to implement them. I'm working on getting those added back in, as well. New CG, too.

  • Camp scenes. Basically the same as above. More of those, too.

  • Party members. There are a few more I plan to add in the next update, including a couple secret ones. Ipeia and Nibi are returning too, don't worry.

  • New areas. This is more Part 4 stuff than Part 3, but I do have a few new and unexplored areas planned, and new monsters to go with them. These will probably be in smaller subsequent updates (that hopefully won't take two fucking years to finish)

In other words, the last Part 3 update is probably going to be the biggest one so far, by quite a bit. It's still going to take some time to finish. I have to draw a bunch of CGs, code fights, write h-scenes, test everything to make sure it works, etc. But once it's ready, hopefully it'll have been worth waiting so long for. And hopefully the next updates won't take such an excruciatingly long time.

It's obvious I was waaaaaaaaaaay too ambitious with my plans when I started working on NG+. I basically wanted to make a game that was as big if not way bigger than the original game...as a high school kid with zero programming experience, writing experience, art experience, etc. Yeah, there was no way that was ever going to work. The only reason it wasn't completely canceled 7 years ago is because apparently, I'm the most stubborn moron that ever lived.

And on that note, I'm still going ahead with the original plan. Nothing's changed with that. Still six parts, still an absurd amount of content. I've gone too far with it to go back on it now, so I'm just gonna keep working on it when I can.

TL;DR FINAL PART 3 UPDATE SOON PLEASE BE PATIENT.

Update on the Next Update (Last Part 3 Update)

 

Soon.

I've been pretty busy lately, and I keep forgetting to make a blog post about the next update, so here it is.

The next update will be the last one for Part 3. It will have the final area, plus everything else I still need to add. Obviously, this is going to be the biggest update I've released so far, so it might still take some time before it's ready. I'll make another blog post once it's almost finished before I post it for real.

I know it's taken way, WAY too long to finish Part 3, and I can only apologize for that. Hopefully the long wait will be worth it, and the game will be better for all the time it took. There are still 3 parts to go after this, so the ride's only starting either way.

More to come soon.

Monster Girl Quest NG+ Part 3 Demo Update (v. 9-1-2020)

 


Just an innocent drawing of Vampire Girl.

The new update is finished. Sorry for the wait. Technically, this new area is supposed to be a secret, but here it is, anyway.

Link is here, just extract on top of an MGQ install and it's ready to go. https://mega.nz/file/40wDSCTA#3T11e4fEmtcrIIAHpV2MmNhmHP_GZpnnWaUmAmIUzAM

Latest patch is here. Install on top of the Update in the link above. http://www.mediafire.com/file/3cbddq8wovejbjn/Monster+Girl+Quest+NG++Part+3+Demo+Patch+(v.+9-7-2020).zip/file

The next update won't be a specific area, but rather adding Ipeia and Nibi back into the game, putting in their dialogue, and other camp scenes that need to be finished.

That's all for now.

Update on the Updates


A perfectly wholesome and SFW drawing of Salamander.

An update on the updates.

I've been working on a few extra things for part 3 that I haven't had the chance to finish yet. A few secret routes you can unlock, some h-scenes, some camp scenes, the party members. etc. Here's what I have planned for the next three updates.

Update 1: The secret routes (new locations included). I know it seems counter-intuitive to release an update and not tell you what's going to be in it, but you'll find out soon enough. Or just check the Discord if you want to spoil yourself, since I've been releasing test builds for it almost daily.

Update 2: Party member update. This will bring back the Harpy and Kitsune, as well as add one or two new party members. I'll also be implementing a lot of camp scenes (h or not) with this update. And once that's all taken care of...

Update 3: The final area of Part 3. With this update, Part 3 will be completed.

That's all for now. More to come Soonish.

I also have a Fanbox page now (Pixiv's version of Patreon). It's mostly just for my art, but it has a few exclusive drawings on there right now for the 100JPY (0.90-0.93 USD) tiers and up, with more to come. If you're interested, the link is here. https://www.pixiv.net/fanbox/creator/4907258

Monster Girl Quest NG+ Part 3 Demo Update (v. 12-25-2019)

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)

https://i.gyazo.com/57ea18a26087df7644c9b896874438b3.png
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.
