Yesterday, I started working on the third Ikimono High game. I've already done two characters today.
The game won't be submitted here on flash though as it will be a renpy visual novel game. If I made it on flash, it would be too big because the visual novel is going to be long.
Any suggestions are welcome. Maybe a new race for a monster girl character?
(Stay tuned for I will post my game progress here.)
Regarding new character ideas.... How about a chimera? You could give her quite an interesting design.... as long as she looks human. To better visualize it... think of that sphinx girl that you created. Something like that design, except using influence from several different animal sources. How about a luscious, snake girl? Her hair could resemble snake skin, and she could have cute fangs, pointed tongue, and snake-like limbs. Also, some snake eyes would be quite nice. How about a demon? She'd have red hair, and look like a sexy rendition of the classic devil. How about an elf or fairy? That would look cute. Would a ghost or ghoul work? An imp? How about a pegasus or unicorn- inspired girl? A Phoenix-looking girl? A Valkyrie would suffice. Lastly, how about a will-o'-the-wisp? Those would seem interesting. By the way, will this be the finale? Thanks for reading this! I can't wait for more games! I'm looking forward to your future!
A chimera concept might be hard, but I guess I'll try. If I feel happy with my sketch, maybe I'll add one in the game.
A snake girl? Hmm...I'll think about it.
Demon girl? Maybe I might add a succubus or the imp.
Elf or fairy? There's already Megami. She might come back in this game.
Ghosts? I wouldn't add any human ghosts in the game cause I think they wouldn't fit in.
A Pegasus or Unicorn girl sounds neat. I'm already thinking of a design right now.
Finally, a will-o'-the-wisp girl. I might think of adding one into the game.
This might be the final Ikimono High. Maybe I might make a spin off or a short sequel after I am done. Thanks again for the suggestions!!!
I apologize if this is a little late in terms of suggestions, not sure how much good it will do at this point. Nonetheless I'll keep this succinct, as you've doubtless got better things to do than listen to me ramble on and attempt to correlate my nonsensical ideas. A character I would enjoy seeing incorporated into the story could perhaps be some manner of cultist, or acolyte, meeting the criteria for monster through means of black magic, and arcane experimentation. I would find it interesting to see how this character would interact with Kei, sharing the similarities of once both being human, yet not entirely. You could toy with the idea of belonging, as even in a world of monsters and human this character has no definite place, not fully being accepted into either group, even at the incredibly inclusive school. It could even bring full circle the Mezame character arc, perhaps through some voodooistic practice bringing back from the embrace of death as they were formerly peers, or longtime friends. I would enjoy to see an interaction between the two in such a scenario. I apologize for the unnecessary length and antiquated prose, and sincerely thank you for taking the time to indulge in my bizarre suggestions, as well as hope I did not insult nor interfere with your image of the games, or your artistic integrity. I hope you were able to extract even the slightest nucleus of quality from this rant, and again, thank you for your time, and this delightful series.
What about an evil girl ?
She starts doing "evil things" them, when she meets kei nakajima she start's being rude, but gradually have feelings for him and he teaches her some good manners and she feel how life can be good when you have someone to take care of you (that's the sensation she feel with him) at the end u can make she thanking him for everything and how he changed her for the good side, maybe transforming her putting some angel wings and a halo. lol (or u can do her transformation at the game progress gradually.)

Here are a few suggetsions:
Mumei Fushigi:
An arachnid girl, which means human with lower body for a spider. Personality should be of a "snobbish queen" who gets what she want were Kei is one of her primary targets while she and Mezame will develop rivalries.
Hanako Odayaka (not Hanako from Love At First Bite):
There's an urban legend in Japanese culture about the spirit of a girl who haunts school bathrooms and will only appear when you shouts out her name (Hanako-San). Maybe somewhere in the story, Kei will meet her and befriend her as she will slowly rest in peace after getting a friend.
Akuyaku-Sensei's daugther:
Would be fun if you could add a "father-protecting-daughter" cliché. :)
Witch:
A school of monsters should have a witch in there. Maybe a teacher could be one?
Megami and Oji:
I know I've said it many times, but I really miss Megami as she was my favorite from your original games. I also miss the teenage delusion battle between Oji and Mezame.
The first two characters are actually scrapped character from my own visual novel that couldn't make it, because there was nowhere in the storyline were they could "fit in". But perhaps you can make good use of them?
Also will the visual novel be called Ikimono High 3? Does that mean it's a sequel that takes place after the Ikimono High 2 or will it be a reboot? I wish you all good luck with the game and I know it will be awesome!

Thanks a lot for the suggestions!
I might use the arachnid girl but a ghost wouldn't make sense in a school for monsters.
I really like the idea of adding Akuyaku's daughter, and a Witch teacher sounds nice.
I might add Megami and Oji back into the game. Maybe. Definitely.
Also, the game will be a reboot with a whole new different story and art style.
Thanks again for the suggestion!
