[H-Game][RPG] Monmusu Quest! ~Makereba Youjo ni Okasareru~

Full second chapter is out? I thought it was only trial version.

Most experienced indie game authors release trial/demo version only when full game is also available, due to marketing reasons (specifically people will impulse buy the game if they like the demo, but they won't remember the game next week).

Good point.

If so then why time interval between trial and final version of first part was 5 months?

Because not everyone is the same and people fail to realize that.

There are different creators, with different marketing strategies. I can only vouch for the Western indie games, as I follow that scene somewhat closely, and pretty much every successful developer will tell you that the best way to do a demo for a small indie project, is a demo when your game is available. When you don't have the marketing budget of an AAA title, you can't afford ads, or big reviews in gaming press or other venues.

It is entirely possible that Japanese indie market that serves a very limited kind of audience, such as adult games, functions in a different way with less impulse buys and more of planned purchases. In this case, a well done demo during development on a big event may be a good way to get publicity.

Downloaded this game earlier and i'm loving though i'm stuck now.

[spoiler]I got to the kraken boss and when she goes to use the aqua pentagram, a little screen pops up that says: "Invalid first byte of EBML ID:00"
[/spoiler] and the game freezes up.
Can anyone help?

A google search for it indicates it's a codec error of some sorts, ie the media type is not recognized I think... Try installing/reinstalling latest cccp codec pack or Haali splitter.

That fixed it.  Thank you for the help.
