YORNA: Monster Girl’s Secret [Final]

v0.9

H scenes and art

This update brings 4 new scenes. First one features dark matter in the new location, and it has 2 usual variations – lewd and the normal one. The same goes for the doppler, the boss of version 0.9

Nereid gets a new domination scene. Same as always, to get this one, you must defeat her with lust magic only. The last H encounter is tied with vagabond’s optional questline. I hardly recommend checking the finale of this questline – it’s pretty funny. Both these scenes have only one variation.

I’m placing domination and factional scenes (nereid and raiju x vagabond) at the end of the gallery so they won’t mix with the regular H events.

New dress

Players asked for a new dress and I decided to go with pandarian garb to provide a high level option for warrior-like approach. It has a powerful skill for melee combat, so if you prefer brute forcing your enemies – check out Diana’s shop after beating Desona.

Scenes and optional content

You can find a new mini-scene with Mio and Gabriella inside the garden. Since this update was more focused on finishing vagabond’s optional quest arc, most of the time went there.

Now you can finish vagabond’s plotline – check the help button in the “on-map” menu if you don’t remember where you were in the quest chain. It doesn’t require much time to wrap it up and I recommend doing so. You’ll learn more about Raiju and her “Big Hero” in the process.

Castle changes

Check you your lab! After days of hard work, Serena managed to devise formulas for most powerful weapons to help you. Namely, each of the puzzle swords (Talon, Companion and Spellblade) received their last upgrade.

They require quite a bit of money and rare materials yet they are worth it!

Made kitchen and lab maps bigger so Ada’s on-map sprite won’t hide the walkable zones.

Lust draft and alchemist quest

Players asked for a way to bump up Ada’s lust level similar to herbal tea. After completing the first part of the alchemist’s quest in the starter village, she will gladly sell lust drafts. These items work as the herbal tea with one exception – drinking it will increase the lewd level.

If you have several bottles in the inventory, the game will offer several options: drink 1, 5, 10 or 15 bottles at once. A convenient option for players who want to play around with Ada’s lewd level.

Please note, drinking lust draft won’t upgrade your lewd skills, just the lewd level.

Small improvements and fixes

Fixed shop scroll for mobile devices. Now it allows checking all options in the list.

Fixed color code sometimes popping up with the hint in the lower part of the screen after using items during dialogues.

Intra-castle movement now works correctly with all variations of the castle, including the clean, non-upgraded version.

Swapped the second scepter of power from the lava depths zone for oakheart staff. If you already cleared the zone and got the scepter, check out castle’s lounge. I added a new npc who sells some weapons, including oakheart.

Fixed a rare bug where scenes with warnings didn’t unlock gallery entries after getting the scenes.

Now you need to press the action button or click on lumberjack’s village to enter it. This way you won’t get inside if you were walking somewhere else and stepped into the village by chance.

Cleared empty choice window after the player picks shopping option.

Potions no longer require a confirmation to use in battle. Since Ada fights alone there’s only one target.

Deleted the extra text block in nun’s scene.

Grammar and typo fixes in some scenes and intra-castle movement menu.

Talon family swords now properly apply bleeding on successful hits. Fixed a bug where “on hit” logic was skipped.

 

 

v1.0b
H scenes and art

v1.0 brings two usual scenes with lewd and normal variations for common enemies and the boss. New domination event features the gnoll. As always, you can find new scenes towards the end of the gallery.

Desona’s normal scene and doppler’s lewd scene no longer fade out the screen in the gallery’s replay mode if the short length was chosen in options. Gargoyle’s slutty scene now plays as intended. Sorry for these glitches.

Nun questline ending and cutscenes

Finished Octa church’s optional quests in v1.0. Each quest step has hints. You can meet one of Ada’s old acquaintances during it and get a useful talisman as a reward. It may come very handy in Yorna’s boss fight.

Added a mini-event with the honeybee in castle’s garden if you decided to help her with honey.

Tech stuff

Crash problem fix. While I released it before the final v1.0, it’s a big change and I decided to list it here. If you still encounter any kind of issues – contact me with all available info. Autosave feature stays even with its main enemy defeated for convenience sake.

Fixed geometry and shadows in several areas – lava depths, Mortimer’s tower, Grey castle and cultist caves with dark matter.

Fixed passive effect from “Clarity” skill. Now it correctly applies mana regen to all battles.

Fixed combat sprites showing above interface in boss fights. Now they are properly layered under it.

Small fixes and improvements

Lust draft received appropriate item info.
Adjusted Astrum’s (dress) details to reflect that its mana regen is passive and works even out of combat as intended.

Corrected 2 issues with total clear counters inside the mansion and Grey laboratory.

Fixed Serena arrival at the castle before you save her from Desona.

Ada’s no longer briefly invisible after losing to dark matter or doppler and teleporting to Ayane’s shrine.

Fixed missing icon for the tray.

Fixed some dresses to correctly work with Ada’s undressing. Previously they retained original clothes instead of showing naked sprites.

Fixed static cursor during code input for the shady guy if you didn’t used keyboard to change between digits.

Sex sounds no longer play after gallery’s H events in mansion are over.

 

 

v1.1
H content

The update brings 3 new H events with 2 options each. So, 6 in total. The first pair is tied with Kejourou in the new explorable location – the deep mine on Ikko island. The second pair features Sarana and her boss fight. The third pair is inside the mansion’s basement – check out the rooms to find the new encounter.

New features

v1.1 brings a new feature – FAQ and feature button in the main menu. Some players didn’t find the FAQ file I put in each release and played without using quality of life features like auto-battle, textbox hiding or Ada’s sprite concealing. So, I decided to make a separate button for this.

After hitting the FAQ button, the game will open a new window with the information. To make the file automatically accessible on all platforms, I remade it into the txt format. Hope it will help with your playthrough and make it more enjoyable.

Also, v1.1 will bring the first step of kitsune shrine maidens’ optional questline and a new dress. Similar to Octa church and the vagabonds, you don’t need to complete it to progress with the main story, but it will bring its own rewards and funny scenes.

This questline line will feature a new labyrinth-like subzone. If players will like the idea, I’ll add a similar area to upcoming releases too.

Added new alchemy brewbook and the most powerful potions. These will help you beat even the most powerful enemies. Added strong potions to castle’s and Ikko camp’s vendor lists for convenience.

Minor tweaks and fixes

Added Miko dress, it will be a pretty interesting choice for a mage with good stats and a passive skill that boosts magic attack and defense.

Added new hidden treasure to the new “Crystal mine” zone. It will be the new focus map for v1.1 – don’t forget to check out your inventory and dig up the cache!

Adjusted “Features” interface on mobile platforms, namely moved scroll buttons towards the middle of the screen for better comfort.

Fixed partly cut 3rd text line for skill and item descriptions. Their logic stays the same.

Fixed a typo in the Pandarian dress’s description. Stats, skills and visuals are the same.

 

v1.1.5
Yorna v1.1.5 is up for download! Aside from the new story content and usual puzzle & treasure hunting, you’ll find 1 new monster girls, a new beastman and 2 fresh H scenes with them. Hanako finds out a fault with the focusing crystal and Ada will have to step in to fix it. But will it be this easy?

You can get the new version here.

H content

The update brings 2 new H events with 2 options each. You can get the first pair from new common enemies – catmen. You can find them in the new mountain region on Ikko island.

The second pair of scenes features a new boss – Kara. She’s in the same region as your new furry friends.

Ada’s last maid job scene (1 on 1 with the client) received a graphic update along with a pair of extra frames. You don’t need to re-unlock the scene if you’ve already got it before. Also, I’ve updated last month’s art pack with the new frames.

New features

Kitsune questline received a new step with a bit of private time with Ayane. Don’t miss your chance

This update introduces 2 new scenes with other monster girls, mainly focused on the small trio. You can find both inside the kitsune temple after progression the main plot.

I added the last piece of the puzzle staff. You can assemble it in v1.1.5 to get the best weapon with stats of your choice. Yeah, just like with the sword. Also, all options will place different status effects on enemies with direct hits, as the bloodthirster did.

Small fixes and improvements

Fixed Sarana’s nameplate during her cutscene in the deep mine region. Now it properly uses her name.

Adjusted all of Momo’s dialogue sprites. Now, her front hair properly covers her eye to avoid flickering during image swaps.

Fixed background music in deep mine’s labyrinth zone. Now all zones properly trigger music after players load a saved game in them.

Fixed a rather strange bug that could turn a critical hit into a regular one without any bonus damage.

Fixed an issue with the sand cave’s orb puzzle where players could look themselves out from the Eastenr part of the labyrinth after losing to ogres. Now, this map has the reset switch to put the puzzle on step 1.

Adjusted mobile option window to accommodate all options without the need to scroll through them. Didn’t notice this weird change before, sorry for the inconvenience.

Fixed a rare bug which froze the game after using the dev log button and moving on to the browser.

Fixed global map’s desert region. Now it properly uses the same sand tiles everywhere to avoid the rough tiling between the “palm forest” part and the rest of the zone.

Added informative icon for buff and debuff states like def or mdef with arrows pointed upwards on downwards according to the effect. This affects only states with a single effect.

Increased scroll speed for “Feature” text. Still stuck testing this since the result varies on different platforms. I will add it to the main build later.

 

V1.2

H content

The update brings 2 new H events with 2 options each. You can get the first pair from new common enemies – possessed girls with cursed swords. You can find them in the castle on Ikko island. The second pair of scenes features a new boss – the mind-bending dominatrix. She’s in the same region.

New features and activities

Kitsune’s optional questline received the next step – get inside the great furball library and see if you can get valuable knowledge from it with Ayane. This includes a labyrinth zone and a small puzzle.

The new puzzle is fairly simple and uses sudoku logic with a clear hint in the puzzle zone. Since the last one was pretty ambiguous, let’s take a break 🙂 v1.2 will also bring a new type of activities – trap tracks. Since some players prefer more active gameplay, I decide to try out old good traps.

It uses new logic, never implemented in Yorna before. After entering the trap track map, you’ll notice a new GUI element – a health bar. If Ada gets caught in the trap, she’ll use a charge to teleport back to a nearby safe position. Losing all 3 will kick you out of the active zone. Keep an eye out for a way to restore it! Also, it would be great to hear your thoughts on this idea – should I do more of there or it doesn’t fit in Yorna?

Another puzzle awaits in the kitsune library. It’s a rather simple “push” puzzle where you need to clear a path to the prizes by pushed obstacles away and not blocking the path in the meantime.

This update introduces 2 new mini scenes with monster girls, both located in Ada’s camp on Ikko island. The first one features Sarana and her “sweet revenge” on you. The second one is focused on Idris (Raiju) and her lewd reputation.

Small fixes and improvements

Several zones received additional ambiance tracks in v1.2 to improve the atmosphere as a test rollout. Based on players’ feedback, I’ll either delete these or add them to all other zones. Such tracks use BGM’s volume level. The full list includes pier maps on both islands, pine forests on Ikko island + the main one and both gardens in kitsune temples.

Added a new item called “Recall scroll”. After using it, you will be able to pick one of the safe zones like Grey castle or Hanako’s temple and Ada will teleport there. Full list of safe zones: Grey castle, Sand Town, Ayane’s shrine, Coast camp on Ikko island and Hanako’s temple. Some locations will be available after advancing the plot far enough. Alchemists and magic vendors sell these scrolls.

Fixed pathfinding logic in Deep Mine’s entrance zone. Now Ada won’t jump over a ledge on the stairs.

Added new “Cleanse” potions named “Gaia’s Tear”. Similar to the “Cleanse” skill, they will remove most of the debuffs after drinking and you can do so even under “Silence” effect.

Added shimmering effect to the teleport sphere in Ada’s room. Some players had problems finding it – I hope this will help.

Fixed Chilly Ridge zone. Now, it correctly plays background music if players load up a save there.

Improved Jinko’s box sprite by adding details to her walking animation. She’s no longer sliding in her stealth suit. Mrawr!

Adjusted Lizzy’s sprite in the castle’s garden. She’s properly looking at the blooming bush now.

Players can’t sell the shovel anymore since some did so before trying to dig up something. In case you already did this – you can get another one on Sand Town’s bazaar.

Fixed mansion’s basement. Now the scenes there won’t reset after drinking herbal tea or lust drafts. This way, players can obtain both normal and lewd variations for H scenes in this zone.

Rebalanced “Fire Enchantment” skill. It no longer gets bonus damage from the magic attack stat but received extra physical damage scaling as compensation. It’s more or less on par with “Force Wave” from mages. “Overpower” is the top damage option yet at a higher mana cost.

Fixed domination and “But Why?” achievements for Steam. Now you can properly get them.

Forced Leary to stand still in the garden so she couldn’t appear twice at Titania’s cutscene.

Coast camp’s teleporter no longer requires action button to activate. Touching it is enough to trigger the teleportation back to the castle. Also, fixed the orb in Ada’s room (both versions). It no longer changes into a tube.

Fixed older cutscenes in Ada’s room (both versions). After adding a new way to get into the room (teleporter from the Ikko island) I didn’t think about the old cutscenes that required strict player positioning. Now, you can watch all of them without getting stuck.

 

v1.2.5 
Anubis sprite will arrive shortly during this week and the artist will focus on a scene for her. And the second scene for the lord of the desert is already in works. The new dress should be finished before Wednesday.
I’m done with the maps and tilesets, currently focusing on applying the logic. There are several updates on this front:
The second puzzle is ready and this time I want to see how players will react to QTE minigame. It’s not hard to complete and will serve as a feedback test.
The kitsune quest’s ending is ready. Ada will get her alter kitsune dress (with a surprise) and see how the whole mini-story will end. As always, expect a bit of weirdness mixed with cuteness – the usual kitsune stuff.
Also, I’m thinking about adding another soundbar in the options menu. It will regulate new ambiance sounds you can hear in some zones. Since I’m planning to add more of these tracks, a way to mute or make them louder can be handy for players.
New monster girls 1 / 2
New H scenes 0 / 4
New puzzles & trap tracks 2 / 2
New dresses 0 / 1

 

v1.3
H content

The update brings 2 new H events with 2 options each. You can get the first pair from new common enemies – Anubis girls who roam in the tropical forest on Ikko island. The second pair of scenes feature the new boss – Pharaoh Ife with a bit of maniacal lewd ideas. She’s in the same zone.

New features and activities

The kitsune quest’s ending is ready. Help Ayane with all the preparations and see how this mini-story will end. You will get an alternative look for the Miko dress and another pack of kitsune-flavored cutscenes.

The first puzzle is ready is based on the pipe-turning, where you’ll need to connect two exit points with different kinds of pieces.

The second puzzle features a QTE minigame. It’s not hard to complete and will serve as a feedback test for players since I plan to use this module for a greater variety of minigames in future updates and projects. You can use either mouse/touchpad or keyboard arrows to select the runes appearing on the obelisk. Getting the right glyph will allow you to move further and picking the wrong one will reduce the timer you have for the current round.

I gathered a lot of feedback concerning the ambiance sounds and the dedicated control option for them. Most of the players want to see it, and I will implement this feature in v.1.3.5.

Small fixes and improvements

Fixed a desync between Ada’s emotion and dress layers after the miniscene in the kitsune temple.

Added the second part of reactions to Ada being naked. It’s mainly focused on the castle grounds.

Fixed music not playing after loading a saved game in the new mountain zone.

Fixed Wisdom and Balance skill. Now it adds the correct amount of bonus stats.

Fixed the healing statues. Some of them weren’t blinking with the orb, and players didn’t think they could activate them. Now all healing shrines should have their animations on at all times.

Stay tuned for news and upcoming monster girl poll! As always, if you don’t like something about the game – tell me and if you like Yorna – tell your friends ^^
