Monsters of Windy Peak
Explore the region of Windy Peak, catch monsters, level up your team, battle against challenging arena leaders, climb to the top of the mountain and defeat the final boss.
This is a monster taming game with focus on 4 vs X turn based combat.
There is a Web-Version available, so you can play the demo right here without needing to download the game.
I recommend downloading the game, if you experience problems with saving the game or if you want to prevent losing progress when clearing the browser cache.
Features
- Catch monsters and build a team of 4 to explore the region of Windy Peak
- There are different type of monsters like physical attackers, magical attackers, healers or tanks.
- Monsters are of different element types like water, fire, earth, air and more. They have weaknesses and strengths against other types.
- Combine different types of monsters and build the strongest team possible!
- Challenge arena leaders to collect badges (currently 2 in the demo)
- Fight bosses and show your skills as a monster tamer
- There are some bosses that you will have to fight to progress through the story (currently 2 in the demo)
- But there are also some optional bosses (currently 1 in the demo)
- Winning against bosses will reward you with new unique items!
- Find items, potions and food to strengthen your team
- Equip items to monsters to make them stronger.
- Potions have special effects that can trigger once every battle (they refill automatically afterwards), which makes them a strong tool in the tamer's arsenal.
- Food items can be alloted to monsters in your team, to permanently increase their stats or give special traits, while they hold them. They can be redistributed to other monsters, if you change your mind.

Merry Christmas!
There are two more things that I found.
1) When you put skill points in Buskfyr's strength upgrade and it evolves into Buskfyrael, the skill points are lost as the skill in that slot changes and the points are not returned to be usable nor stay in the new skill. This didn't happen to the other skill (ability) that changes when I observed it.
2) Speed's effects don't change with battle buffs/debuffs nor with items. So what happens is only base speed matters, but changing someone's speed does nothing.
Merry Christmas to you, too!
1) Oh, I totally forgot about the skills, when I was creating the new evolutions.
2) I can't believe I missed this.
Again, thank you for reporting the bugs! I will fix them as soon as possible. Let me know, if there is something else.
Ok!
I just uploaded a new version (0.5.1) that fixes the 3 bugs, that you reported.
But sadly I can't give back Buskfyrael's lost skillpoints :(
(At least not at the moment)
Nice!
One more thing is that Jorgle's Turtle move seems to be reducing way more damage than it's supposed to. Every attack deals around 10 damage mid game up to around 20 in late game.
Ok, something weird happened. I ignored a Warren encounter (the second one) and then arrived at the Sanctum and there's no Warren and I'm stuck there because I sat on the bench without thinking. Since I don't have winged boots yet, I can't get out LMAO.
That was kind of intended. Warren will only appear at the Sanctum, after you talk to him in the upper garden. (maybe this was a bad idea)
But you should be able to walk back to the upper garden and talk to him, to fix this issue.Maybe I should change this, so it is not possible to advance, without talking to him first.
Edit: Ahhh I think I know now what you mean. I didn't think of that! I will look into a fix for that.
I uploaded a fix for that (Version 0.5.2)
Please let me know, if this helped you get unstuck.
You should be reset to the Sanctum, when you start the game. Also Warren now should always be there, even if you didn't talk to him earlier.
It worked! Thanks and happy new year!
Great! Happy new year! :)
I love the new monsters and areas. The puzzles are very fun! Found a new bug in the Air Temple (Lower Garden). Sometimes you get blown more than you should and get stuck. To reproduce, hold the walk button in the ground and release while in the air, but this might take a few tries.
I'm glad you liked the update! :)
How did you find the difficulty of the boss fights?
I will look into fixing this bug! I didn't think this was possible :D
Thanks!
I think the boss in Air Temple wasn't too hard, as my team was very strong from items and being high level. The first boss and the wind girl feel like the strongest ones and tough in the first encounter, but I like it. The pirate feels a bit weak, but I'm not sure if that's because I usually defeat wind girl before. Oh, and the optional boss is very tough. I had to go farm other bosses in the last run after failing to defeat him, but I've defeated him before at first try with a different team. So I think it's good because even if he's too strong you can just go back later.
Good to hear! I was worried, that I made some bosses too hard.
Pirate is also designed to be a bit weaker than the rest, because you have to battle the other 3 guys before and can't heal between the fights.
Thanks for the feedback!
Great game. I found an annoying bug where I had already bought food items in Kyst's food stall (only first and last items, but might happen with the other one), then after exploring a bunch I came back and bought one more of each. But I only lost the gold and didn't get the second copy, so it was basically wasted gold.
I played the web version this week.
Hi! Thanks for reporting this. I was able to reproduce it and find the problem. It will be fixed with the next update. (don't know yet when exactly, hopefully soon).
I'm very sorry for the lost gold! :(
Thanks!
It might be just me, but one of my monsters didn't evolve when it reached level 10 (in fact, it said that it had to reach the level to evolve)
Thanks for letting me know. Sadly I can't reproduce the problem on my end :(
I caught a new Busk and leveled it up to 10 and it evolved after the battle ended.
The evolution should trigger after the battle is over (even when losing). Also the evolution should trigger again after the next battle, because the monster still fulfills the condition (lvl 10) to evolve.
Very strange, that it doesn't work for you. If you have more infos about it, please let me know.
thanks for the help, although from what I saw when reaching the level required to evolve after defeating the last enemy in battle the evolution is automatically canceled
Hi! In which browser are you playing the game? (I already tested chrome and edge, as well as the windows version. It worked for me every time)
Do you only have that problem with Busk? Or are all your monsters not evolving correctly?
What do you mean by automatically canceled? Do you see the evolution screen but it immediatly closes? Or doesn't the evolution screen appear at all?
Thanks again. I'm very sorry that the evolutions don't work for you.
I hope you're enjoying the rest of the game. Let me know if there is something else or if you have any more feedback.
I'm playing in the windows version, it didn't happen only with busk, the problem also happened with the initial rock type monster, the crystal element monster that evolves at level 20 and the water type monster that evolves at level 18 (sorry I don't remember the names of the monsters), the only one I didn't have that problem with is the other rock type. Regarding what the evolution is canceled automatically, I mean that the evolutionary screen does not appear directly after going up to the required level if the level is reached after defeating the last enemy monster alive (I say this because the screen appears to improve some ability or statistics such as strength or resistance for example). although after the next fight they evolve
Doesn't work on my Mac.
Thank you for the feedback.
Can you give me some more information about what exactly is not working?
What OS version are you using on your mac?
Do you get a specific error message?
Don't you get into the game at all? (No unity screen? No game menu?)
There should be a log file at this location, that might help locate the problem. Feel free to post it here, if it's not too much trouble: ~/Library/Logs/SteFunGames\Monsters of Windy Peak/Player.log
Thanks again.
There is now a web version of the game available. Maybe this will work better for you.
