Hiya there, everyone! I trust you've all been well?
I just wanted to open up this dev log by stating that I intend to have the next alpha update out by the end of this month--and if by chance things take a little longer, I'll be aiming for the very beginning of September. I thank all of the alpha testers for their patience and promise this next update will be something substantial, further ...
Hiya there,
So I'm a little late with this one, but it's been brought to my attention that I have been behind on fulfilling the high res CG rewards promised in the $15 tier and above.
For this I deeply apologise, and would like to try and get on track with things, picking up where we left off. Like before, I'm holding a poll for everyone eligible to vote for the next high res, uncomp...
Hiya there, guys! How are we all doing today?
First things thing--I apologise for the long stretch of time between this dev log and the last--I never intended for this many days to pass without updating you all on progress, so I hope I didn't cause any panic or worry! But rest assured things are going smoothly. Art is being drawn (some of the last h-scenes are getting done as we speak!) wor...
Hi there, guys!
For today's dev log I wanted to re-introduce someone royal--namely the Queen of Anzara herself: Deidra, the benevolent ruler. You might notice that she looks a little different now!
Discussing things with her artist and taking in feedback that been received before, we both agreed that her original sprite felt somewhat out of place and could be improved in a number of ...
Hiya there,
How are we all doing? Hard to believe that Summer has come and gone so quickly already and the days are starting to get colder again! I hope you're all doing well.
For today's dev log I wanted to talk about something. Namely shiny and round, and--no, get your mind out of the gutter! I'm talking about GOLD!
The currency that makes the world go 'round, gold will play...
Hiya there, guys!
The August wave of copies for all those eligible (counting both Chapter One AND Alpha tiers) have been sent! Thank you for your patience~
If you believe you were entitled to a copy of either Chapter One, or the alpha builds of Chapter Two, but have yet to receive one due to potential issues (processing late, etc.) please don't hesitate to send me a message!
Thank ...
Hi there, guys!
With all the posts on the alpha builds and how they're coming along, I decided now would be a good time to have a break from that and put up another dev log!
This time we're looking at Claire, the bumbling merchant. She's had an appearance in the character trailer, but beyond that I don't believe I've ever fully delved into her character!
Something of a clutz a...
Hiya there, guys!
I'm happy to say that the latest build of the alpha is out, and will be sent to all those who have pledged the corresponding tier.
The download link you have at hand should be automatically updated with a new folder, too, so make sure to download from the 'Release 2' folder!
If you believe you're entitled to a copy of the latest alpha build and have yet to re...
Hiya there, guys!
I figured I'd just make a post to alleviate any lingering concerns with the second alpha build not releasing on the promised 22nd date. For this, I deeply apologise, as I genuinely believed I could have it up and running by that time frame.
Needless to say, several scenes ended up being far longer than I anticipated to script out and add in the necessary CG/sprite cues fo...

Hiya there, guys!
It's about that time again for a new dev log, whoo~ I trust you're all still having a pleasant summer? I'm doing what I can to survive through the heat!
To start things off, I'd like to mention that I intend to release the second build of the alpha very soon, the 22nd of July to be precise. I'll be adding in several more playable quests, along...
Hi there guys,
So, after yesterday's question on what you might like to see a full dev log on, regarding some of the lore around Quest Failed, an overwhelming amount of you have asked about the human/monster relations and how they work in this world. Of which I'll be more than happy to base this particular dev log on~ So get nice and comfy and prepare yourself for lots and lots of words!
Hiya there!
For my next dev log I would like to potentially explore and expand on the setting of Quest Failed a bit more and dive into a bit more detail regarding particular subjects.
However, there's a wide range of things I could start with, so I was wondering if there was anything you guys were more curious about first! I won't hold a poll, and instead will leave it more open in t...
Hiya there, guys!
So with the alpha finally out, I have a chance to go back to a more regular schedule on things and deliver to everyone a new dev log, as it's been a little bit since the last one.
I'd like to take the time here to introduce a new character: Amy, the crystal fairy~
She's a small creature born from crystal, no taller than a typical human finger. Harnessing ener...
Hiya there!
I wrapped things up a bit later than I intended today for the first alpha build release, but it's still the 5th in some countries, so it counts!
The build is now uploaded and ready to go! I'll be sending it to--and rapidly updating it for all those who are pledging $25 or more--and by the end of the month I'm sure it will have a great deal more content for you to enjoy~
Hiya there,
The full resolution Nefertari piece should now have been sent to all those eligible ($10 and up). Please let me know if for any reason you're entitled to this piece as well, yet didn't receive it (processing late, etc.) and I'll try my best to resolve this issue!
Thanks~
The July wave of copies for all those eligible has been sent!
If you believe you were entitled to a copy, but have yet to receive one due to potential issues (processing late, etc.) please don't hesitate to send me a message! Thank you for your continued support of the game~
The bonus Tari art will be soon to follow, as it'll take me slightly longer to mark down everyone who pledges ...
2017-07-02 14:56:10 +0000 UTC View PostHiya there guys!
So, I guess it's time to talk about the biggest elephant in the room--the fact that the fabled Alpha release has yet to have materialized itself.
Needless to say, I vastly overestimated my ability to deliver this promised segment of the game out in a timely manner, and it's been an overwhelming source of guilt on a daily basis. For this, I deeply apologise for everyo...
Hiya there!
Yesterday I posted a stream of art in progress by one of our dedicated Quest Failed artists, as they wanted to give back to the community and do something fun that everyone could take part in.
It was a really fun stream, and I'm happy to have seen so many of you take an interest in it! (There was even a visit from the closest thing to Tari herself--her VA, Venus LeMay~)
A...
2017-06-29 17:15:33 +0000 UTC View PostHiya there,
Do you guys remember the poll I held not too long ago, to gauge interest in who you might want to see in a bonus piece? Well, one of the artists that is part of the Quest Failed team is currently streaming the creation of this art as we speak!

So feel free to come in and ...
Hiya there, guys!
A bit later than I intended maybe for this dev log, as the days just seem to fly by, but I've made sure to make this one a pretty in-depth one to make up for it!
The first thing you've more than likely noticed is the lovely horned lady adorning this particular dev log. I'm not going to divulge too much of her character personally, to keep the mystery, but would like to t...
2017-06-24 12:55:22 +0000 UTC View PostHiya there guys,
While I'll have a proper dev log up in the next day or so featuring someone very...ahem 'horny', I'm here with a quick poll today to see who you guys might favor most for a bonus piece of art that an artist has kindly offered to contribute to alongside their other commitments this month.
What the focus of this bonus art might be? Well, that's a secret~ But I guarantee it'...
2017-06-16 21:38:20 +0000 UTC View PostHiya there, guys!
Thought I'd post a quick update just to inform you all that I'm back and will be recommencing development on things the moment I'm rested up--just in case anyone was wondering why their message wasn't being responded to, or progress on the game wasn't being shown.
For those that might have missed it in my previous announcement, I was away from home last Thursday (8t...
Hiya there, guys!
How's everyone's summer? Plenty of sunshine, I hope and good food all around~
I would like to open with an apology on the fact the alpha isn't out yet--as things are still being tweaked (last minute changes to some sprite expressions I considered a touch off once I saw them in-game, re-doing some CG elements that didn't mesh well, etc.) and want to avoid this becomi...
The June wave of copies for all those eligible has been sent!
If you believe you were entitled to a copy, but have yet to receive one due to potential issues (processing late, etc.) please don't hesitate to send me a message! Thank you for your continued support of the game~
Now then, back to the grind on the impending alpha release!
Hi there, guys! How are you all doing? Enjoying the warm weather that's beginning to set in, I hope!
I imagine you're probably all a little confused by another dev log so soon after the other--especially given my, let's say...'spontaneous' nature with these. But I figured I'd give you all a treat and a glimpse into a recently finished CG with a certain pure(???) nun. Who can say what she's ...
Hi there, guys!
I've been a little quiet the last few days as I work towards releasing the first alpha build of Chapter Two (of which I'm still aiming for the end of this month to release!) so I apologise for the lack of posts. I hope I haven't given anyone cause t worry on the status of development, and can assure you all that things are going smoothly. Words are being written, assets are ...
Hiya there, guys!
So, last post I celebrated reaching the $1,500 milestone, and then brought the discussion straight to you guys, to see where you felt the money would be better put towards.
Several options were mentioned, along with your own suggestions alongside things--and the majority of you seem to have come to a consensus that you would like to see all this be put into addition...
Hiya guys!
So, first things first: wow--we hit the $1,500 milestone! Thank you all so much for the support! Sincerely, I really mean it. Without you guys, Quest Failed would have never have gotten as big as it has done. It still all feels like one big dream, to have been able to create something that so many people enjoy and want to be a part of~
Those more watchful of the patreon ac...
Hiya there,
While you've had small glimpses of characters here and there from various dev logs, I figured since so much of it is coming together at the moment that I would take the time to put a small trailer up featuring many of the characters you can expect from Chapter Two, along with a preview of their voices!
I hope you enjoy it, as it was (a big massive headache with so many re...
Hi there, guys!
How is everyone doing? Hope you're enjoying the warmer weather and having fun! Though, admittedly, I'm shutting myself away behind curtains and hissing at the sunlight, haha.
Given that Chapter Two has so many h-scenes, I figured maybe I should start teasing some of them as they come together to give you a taste of what's to come! (Beyond Matt, multiple times.) I've b...
