Test Build V0.6.4 (OUTDATED)

Thank you for your patience!
I'll be releasing a public version as "V0.6.3.5" soon, this test build will have two more recent scenes that the public version won't.
Still, I want to fix those bugs so if you see any, tell me! I get the weird feeling I've forgotten something.

Included is the harpy mini-scene I added last time plus a new mini-scene with the werewolf and some proper frame-by-frame animation on that gooey stuff. If you walk right to the end of RouteA11 there's a new...

Test Build V0.6.3.2.2 (OUTDATED)

Just a lil update! Fixed some minor issues like with fox-girl's scene being off-center and more importantly I've added a mini-scene for Harpy/Dragon-Harpy. She keeps the egg warm after capturing you, though she'll only do it if she's nearby at the time, it won't always happen. It's more obvious how strong this is if you don't have any Harpy corruption, she doesn't deal extra damage with it.
I wanted it to be a quick and easy scene to draw but it ended up taking me longer with enough parts ...

Test Build V0.6.3.2 (Miscellaneous Update) (OUTDATED)

Lots of fixes and oversights (harpy legs in cat-girl's licking scene), improvements to portraits, slight Werewolf re-work and a stripped state for her. There's also a full Japanese and Polish translation.
It's the "cleaning up my to-do list" update.

If you'd like to give feedback, I'd love if you can pay attention to:
- The effects when the player is hit or when enemies are hit. I keep adding more and more details, so I'd like to be sure it's not too much.
- Hovering over play...

News Post - Funding & Hiring

Hiya! Work is coming along steadily as always, I'll be putting out an update soon to finish the Japanese translation, to add a Polish translation, reworking the Werewolf's behavior and a list of to-do entries that I'm currently burning through.
Stuff like: content toggles for belly stuff, half-complete vases, fixing shortbow's aiming...
I'm working on recording game footage to make a showcase video out of, too. I've gotta decide what scene I want to draw next...

But, lately, I've...

Test Build V0.6.3.0 (Dragon-Harpy update pt.2) (OUTDATED)

Yo. New Patreon build update. All the stuff I've been working on besides the translation edition is here: belly stuff, new harpy stuff. There isn't a transformation "unlock" for belly size stuff so you'll have to find it yourself, it can get quite big. Every part of the player is now transformable in some way!

There will be further improvements and content added to the harpy after this (and other characters if/when artists get that work done).
New locations, more detail for existing...

New Public Version (V0.6.2.6)

Hi,
After way more work than I thought it'd be, the update is out on itch.io and I'm dubbing it the "Translation Update". Not a very charming name, is it? At the time of writing, there's two translations: A full Russian translation and a partial Japanese translation (WIP). There will be more in the future.

When a player first starts up the game, before they see the disclaimer, they'll be prompted to choose a language. Returning players can change...

Poll Results + What's Up

Heya, the recent monster-girl poll ended on the 7th. I always make a post so everyone can see the results, so I'll do that first:

• 1. "Bat" - 56 Votes
• 2. "Mimic" - 86 Votes
• 3. "Dullahan" - 73 Votes
• 4. "Shark" - 86 Votes
• 5. "Imp" - 131 Votes
• 6. "Centaur" 83 - Votes

This is multiple choice so there are more votes than voters.
As you can see, Imp won by quite a bit! At some point, she'll be added to the game and the other 5 ...

New Translation Test Build - V0.6.2.6 (OUTDATED)

I'll make a second post after this, this post is separate so it's only shown to you guys.

Yes, unfortunately, it's not a content-focused update; I really wanted to get game translations up and running, the translation build has been a lot more work than I thought it'd be but I'm doing my best so the translators have an easy and bug-free job and I've been making improvements based on their suggestions. There's now an error log and the updater function is more automatic!

Even if y...

Quick status update

... and happy new year!

I did want to get a new patreon update build this month but, festivities aside, the new content is trickier than I had guessed. I'm trying to add different belly/abdomen sizes which will be used for various purposes and while the art itself isn't too hard, it clips with everything around it, so I have to rework a load of player body parts.

I'm a bit stressed now because I need to get a public build out soon, for various reasons, such as so everyone has acce...

News Post - Werewolf

I'll start calling these intermittent posts "News Posts".
I posted one picture of this Werewolf to twitter but I want to keep everyone in the loop, especially you guys who are helping me out! You might remember the old Werewolf design has blue tarry-pitchy pasties over their parts, she'll still have those. Maybe I'll make her strippable like Fox-Girl is? I'll let you guess what's up with the collar.

So, this is why I haven't set aside a full "Werewolf Update", I've been working on he...

Translation Test Build (OUTDATED)

This is something I've wanted to do for a long time for all UTDATEthe fans in non-English-speaking countries, I hadn't done it until now because the game wasn't very well known so I wanted to focus on content.
Do not use this version if you aren't interested in changing any of the game's text. This is a new version solely for translations and not content and it may have serious bugs, hence why I'm testing it. The goal is to make it so translators don't hav...

Monster Girl Bash #2 (Read other post first!)

Poll to decide who I work on after I'm done with the current girls! I've attached an image file of the characters that you can also see on the other post. It's the same image. Further details are in the public post I made just before this one, click here to see it.

It's multiple choice, the top result will make it in. If 2 or 3 results get very similar scores I...

Monster Girl Bash #2 (Public Info Post)

This post is here so everyone can see the poll details. Voting on the poll itself will happen in a separate post for VIP-tier patrons but the final results will be public.  This poll will run until just after the new year.

For anyone new, welcome! This is a regular event where I decide what the next enemy I add will be based on who gets the most votes. There's 2 new entries (bat+mimic) and 4 from the previous poll. I do re-use designs from previous polls if they fit but just this...

Test Build V0.6.2.0 (Dragon-Harpy update) (OUTDATED)

You know the drill, this is a brand new test build which means it's going to be some bugs. If you're not prepared for some potential serious bugs, wait a few days! Once I get some sleep I'll be going through any bug reports.

The main thing this test build adds is a corruption for the Harpy! Also, you might notice something odd about the screenshot attached to this post, I might have given the elite Dragon-Harpy a very dangerous capability none of the ot...

Test Build V0.6.1.3 (OUTDATED)

I've finished the basics for the harpy and her elite version and put her in! She appears on hilly tiles and her elite version shows up in the higher difficulty (diamond above tile when you hover over it) areas. A few minor issues have been fixed as well, such as fox-girl not having her full set of lines to say or some pathfinding issues. 

As always, bug reports and comments are very welcome but note that the new enemy is still being worked on.

Here's what's planned...

Content Poll Results (+ progress update)

... and a thank you to everyone, as the game will pass 100,000 downloads on itch.io this week! Along with hitting the 200 Patrons mark for the first time here on Patreon, I'm happy to see people are enjoying the update, it does feel like my hard work is paying off and I couldn't ask for more.

Those who played the latest Test Build might've noticed the Harpy in the Village, she's just hanging around right now but I'm working on getting her flying, as you can see in the i...

Test Build V0.6.1 (Dragon-Harpy update) (OUTDATED)

While the public version is now out I'm giving you guys access to the current dev build. I'll be adding more content and features to it over time as I build the coming update.

This test build includes:

- A small placeholder ending for Werewolf-Girl, just in case you get caught by her.

- Preview of Dragon-Harpy in the village (she hangs out over the water pool). I still need to tune her combat specs so she's hanging out for now.

- The ability to remove corruptions using...

New Public Build (V0.6.0)

Heya, thank you all for the patience. The new update "fox update" is ready to go and hopefully free of serious bugs.

You can find it here.

For those in the VIP tier I'm just about to release a new test build "V0.6.1" which adds a couple of things and I'll be expanding upon this as I build up the next update. Because the public build is what you already tested, I recommend getting V0.6.1 instead if you have...

Dragon-Harpy

In roughly two weeks I'm planning to upload a new test build, I'm planning to add a new enemy in a test area and a shop for the shards you collect to remove unwanted corruptions, as opposed to having to do a full reset. In the meantime...

A couple months ago, a poll was run to decide what the next enemy added would be. It was close between the "dragon-harpy" and the "dullahan/ghost". All the designs for that poll were pretty early sketches, you can see here that it's sketch #4 whilst th...

Fox Update (Test Build / Full Update) V0.6 -- OUTDATED

Update! It's here! And it might have bugs! I've woken up since posting and I've fixed the worst bugs so it should be in a playable state. If anything bugs out it's likely to be one of the new features in the Changelogs, check that out to see what I added.

The fox-girl's pretty weird. There might be a layer of psychological horror to the ending like with the previous endings. If you're concerned about any of the game's content, let me know.
Don't forget to report any ...

Fox Update Recap

I will be posting the full and completed update in roughly 24 hours from the time of posting. It'll be up for the VIP tier and it'll still be a playtest of sorts. If it takes longer I'll aim to have it done by the end of this week. It'll be posted publically once patrons have tested it and I have something new for them.

Notable additions and changes since last public update:

• Added a scene with Fox-girl.
• Added an...

Maps-Quests-Content poll (+ending WIP)

I'm drawing my own ending for the fox-girl, may have more than just the scene shown here. If I get any other artist to pull through on a different ending I'll give fox-girl more than one ending.

Once it's done, only the writing and some clean-up is left for this update! Soon...

Surprise poll! I'm currently working towards moving everything into the open world but some people ma...

Test Build V0.5.7.9 (Outdated)

As promised. Read changelogs to see what's up but essentially - near the big water pool in the village there's a new pathway that leads to "RouteA11". If you haven't cleared the 0-4 scene with Voice this will look like a big pile of boulders. If you need to start a new save and want to skip the other missions there's a secret lever in the room with the Dagger that you can access with Pitons if you backtrack, if you jump on it, it has a skip function.

Ph...

Kitsune Update Progress

I'm looking through what I said would be in the update. Of the list, only these remain:

• Ending
• Conversation lines
• New area with fox-girl (+other stuff)

The ending is the only thing that should take a while, there's not much left! I'm hoping to get the update out by the end of August, then. That's not because the ending will take that long, it's because there's still some extras I want to put in:

• Some downsides for corruption that involves ...

V0.5.7.7 (Test Build) (OUTDATED)

Yes, another. This morning a patron told me the fox-girl was misbehaving so I spent the day tying up all the changes I've made to make sure everything mostly works. Must still be some bugs there, leave a comment if you find any. Changelogs attached.

In particular, I've improved the "size 3" bust (2nd biggest) when not constrained by clothes, made the environment destructible, added some extra UI info to the skills and added the ability to click/tap during scenes to speed it along, it'll...

Hairstyle Poll

I was going to add more options for hairstyles at some point. There's a few ways I can do it...

This is multiple choice! Two weeks for this poll ending on the 9th July. I'll look at the more popular choices and I may do a mix of options.

V0.5.7.6 (Test Build) (Outdated)

EDIT: THIS IS NOT THE LATEST VERSION. Please check the patreon feed for the latest!
Here it is!

I'd say that the update is about one third to half-done depending on what I do with her ending(s) and the world map, it's one month worth of work since I patched the public build.

With that said, this build is going to be very raw. There'll be some bugs, the whole process of getting the scenes is a bit rough and I'm rethinking how the underarm mini-scene is triggered...

Poll Results & what's next

Thank you to the patrons who took part in the first character poll!

With 54 votes for the harpy and 44 for the dullahan, the harpy has earned the next new character spot and will be the... Sixth enemy? That's because Ghost-Fox now exists. However, unlike the ghost-fox, she's not a mere minion and will have a wide breadth of content once I get to her.

What does this mean?

I'm still working on fox-girl's content and I may be doing some werewolf content afterwa...

Next Test Build info (and WIP)

After the poll ends on the 20th of June, I'd like to get a test build up ASAP. If I'm lucky, that'll be on the 20th itself. It'll include the full new scene that was posted only as a WIP before and a couple other things. It's not the full update, consider it a way to see the new art/scenes I've done in their correct format, you can always wait for the full update otherwise. I can't give an ETA on the new update yet but I'll be releasing test builds up until the update. It'll also stay in Earl...

Monster Girl Bash (New Character Poll) Round 2

This is round 2 of the poll. Whether or not you voted in the previous poll, you can (and should) vote again. The last poll was almost tied so it could go either way as those who voted for the 3 other girls will now also get to vote on the remaining two.

Please read the details here first: https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-character-on-82689577, I list the full details there. You can still ask...
