I was debating whether or not this goes her or the kickstarter goes right thread, but I decided here was appropriate.

Someone decided to take one of the most expensive styles of beef in the world...and make Jerky out of it

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

I mean, don't get me wrong, that jerky sounds delicious, but come on. You're taking KOBE BEEF and turning it into jerky you dumbass. That's gotta be what, 20 dollars a pound?

Excuse me, quick google search yields prices of $60 USD for a puond of Kobe beef. Jesus Christ!

He's using offcuts and such, which are apparently vastly, vastly cheaper.

But this and this make me skeptical that it's real o_O

Old Man in the comments bring up some valid points despite being viciously attacked by everyone else. Also, if it really is that tasty I suppose it doesn't matter much.

Here is kind of the thing... Price =/= taste as far as foods are concerned (I want to punch a Chef anytime they call something "peasant food")

So who ever said that it made good jerky? Also I've had Jerky with fat in it... it tastes bad.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1727847183/hero-monster-girl-quest-3d#faq_51485
Is anyone here familiar with Monster Girl Quest/Monmus Quest/Monster Girl Assault?
Its an erogue(with a JRPG minigame thats actual pretty engaging, if not a it luck based at times) based off the "monster girl encyclopedia". In short, its a bunch of fantasy monsters redrawn as cute anime girls that either rape men for sustenance, eat and rape men for sustenance, rape then eat men for sustenance, or just rape and eat men for shits and giggles. The game itself follows the escapades of Luka a "totally 18-21" year old man who wants to bring peace between humans and monsters in a world where the dominate religion basically forbids peaceful interactions with monsters. Despite the incredibly corny premise, and nightmare fuel sex scenes (the ones that can't be avoided, I.E about 7 "cannon" scenes are pretty tame.) when you lose, there's a surprisingly good story. That being said, there's a good chance you'll be scarred for life if you lose to some of the bosses*cough*Beezlebub*cough*. The game has 3 parts(2 of which are translated, part 3 was basically just released.
The story may be very good, but I can't stress enough how SICKENING some of losing scenes are.
Some fates that can befall our protagonist

Now imagine watching a purple haired shota being violated by this thing in 3D
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Well you don't have to, because apparently this is a T-rated game based on a sex heavy and when I say sex heavy I mean there are two enemies that don't attack sexually, preferring to beat the shit out of you before sexual assaulting you. The maker apparently DOES have permission from the creator(he can't use the music, but characters are okay), if we're taking the world of a rather sloppy translation.
MID-EDIT
Apparently HERO is going to be a teen friendly retelling, while the primary project appears to be a full blown porn game like the original.
So basically he's trying to make a quick buck by making a porn game based of another porn game and sell it. He's also going to be snipping out the porn out of one version, retitling and selling it to younger people. Honestly any teenage who knows about the game is probably smart enough to obtain the pornographic version or the original.

Actually talk to this guy about this project. The KS project is funding his 3D dungeon rpg based on the Monster Girl Quest Universe, THIS ONE DOES NOT HAVE PORN. KS regulates adult content and he has made it well stated this version will not have any of it. He will make a adult version once this one has been release and it will be a free DLC for the buyers.

Honestly the story itself sucks and Luka is like a wimp chump that someone decided to brainwash and this could turn that image around. His engine designs aren't horrible though.
