Overview
The Monster I Mean to Be is a text-based adult adventure for players who want shapeshifting fantasy with a mix of exploration and encounter-driven scenes. It keeps things loose and curious rather than heavy or plot-serious.
Story
A nameless slime wakes up in a forest world with no memory of its past. Guided by a natural gift for transformation, it sets out to explore the land, meeting monsters, humans, and demons along the way, hoping that one of them holds a clue to who it used to be.
Gameplay
Play centers on shifting between forms as you move through the forest world, using your slime's transformation ability to adapt to different creatures and situations you meet. Beyond changing shape, you can adjust individual body traits for each form and keep separate looks saved per shape, letting you approach humans, monsters, and demons in whatever body suits the moment. Encounters lean into flirtation and intimacy as much as discovery, with no fixed path forcing you toward a single outcome.
Features
- Transformation system with per-form body customization for chest, ass, and genitals
- Sandbox-style forest world with monsters, humans, and demons to meet
- Wide cast spanning male, female, futa, and furry characters across gay and lesbian encounters
Installation
1. Extract and run.
Changelog
v0.1.3
- Added new lewd interactions in the Tavern for both Waiter and Waitress jobs, now after accepting the customer's first lewd request they might ask for something more. You can accept this new request at lewdity level 15, with an aditional option at level 20.
- Added a "Help" button to the sidebar menu, you can use it to read explanations on game mechanics and tips for story progression and available activities.
- Added dark skinned variants to all human form mirror images, they'll automatically replace the default body pictures if you choose a dark skinned character picture in the mirror.
- Added an autosave feature, the game now saves automatically every time you go to sleep.
- Took the "X-Change Potion" out of the Alchemist's shop, this feature is not in the game yet so there's no real point for it to be purchasable.
- Fixed a bug where trying to forge the Noble Sword would consume your materials and money but not give you the sword (Thanks to Garbo_the_Bonza on Itch.io for the feedback!).
- Fixed a few text and formatting errors in the equipment screen.
- Fixed the "Small Boobs" mirror image for the Humanoid Slime form not showing up (Thanks to Alwiane on Itch.Io for the feedback!).
- Fixed a few typos.
