only transformation is with jade, she became twi'll and lost tentacles after mickey mouse said that twi'leks belong to him.
I do hate this mouse for that and well all the patrons that thinked for all the options, the option "human with green paint" was the best for her new look.

It's crazy how successful Disney (specifically their company) has been with protecting its IP. Every decade or so they manage to get a federal law passed that essentially extends intellectual property and prevents it from passing into common use. Which is why you STILL can't make your own game about Mickey Mouse. They just buy enough congressmen to get what they want. It's nuts.

Technically, the original Steamboat Willie version of Mickey Mouse became public domain on Jan 1, 2024, but later versions are still protected.

Your point still very much stands though regarding their aggressive IP protection.

An interesting quirk about Steamboat Willie is that you still can't put that cartoon up on YouTube or anywhere similar. That depiction of the mouse at the very start, standing at the steering wheel, whistling while spinning the wheel, is still off-limits because the big D put that segment in their into logo for movies, putting it under the protection of Trademark law. Trademark isn't as long-term or wide-scale as Copyright, it only really lasts as long as that Trademark is in common use and for that very specific animation, but they can keep that specific cartoon out of public hands for now. But you can still mess around with that version of MM, just as long as he's not at a ship wheel and whistling.

Yeah the one cartoonist I follow is doing an occasional comic on Tumblr as a side thing about the further adventures of Steamboat Willie & Co, introducing other public domain early 20th Century comic characters into it. He's the one that Fox News got foamy at the mouth about when he took over Popeye, which is hilarious, because his version of Popeye & Olive Oyl is probably the closest to the roots of the characters they've been for 50 years.

It's been a long time since I last picked up this game. I stopped at episode 12 since it is the season one finale and I am about to start Season 2 then stopping at episode 18 to treat it as a mid season finale. However, im a bit rusty with the lore and kinda forgot some plot details since it's been ages. Can anyone give me a tldr of the important bits I need to know again? Mostly the prophecy stuff and the Scoulgin (completely forgot who they are or what they look like)

Since the game has an exhaustive CODEX, you can find all that stuff out yourself without having to replay the whole game.

Also be sure to have played the version 0.12b or later. If you played 0.12a you did not reach the end of season one. There has been a lot of post simply pointing that out when season 2 came out. people skipped 0.12b thinking it was a bugfix update.

I finished playing season 1 around when season 2 episode 16 or 17 was in development iirc. Did the version I have then already include the 0.12b update? Cause if not, I guess i'll be reinstalling season 1 again unfortunately

Development Update #114

Just in time for the weekend! I've been back from my holiday for a while now. Nice opportunity to recharge the batteries. Apart from the required sight-seeing, I managed to read a lot and also got a little writing done for Episode 21.

As soon as I got back I resumed working on Episode 20. The script has now been sent to my proofreaders and I'm putting the last touches on the renders. Everything is ready for a release this month, it just a question of when during the coming weeks. I'll keep you updated.

I've also put some thought into the whole Patreon suspension situation from earlier this year. As mentioned before I've worked on my own platform which is basically ready to go, but securing a payment processor is an unexpected hurdle (see and for more context). The most promising lead gave a sign of life well over a month ago, but has since gone quiet. Securing another partner would mean writing code to handle payments instead of using a stock solution and I simply lack the time at the moment.

So the alternate platform is forced on the backburner for now, which is worrying me a bit. I have currently one active project here on Patreon and if the banhammer strikes again for some reason it might be a complete account ban this time, which is less than ideal.

Adding another project might be a solution. So I'm thinking of creating a short game to diversify and have something to fall back on should disaster strike. The additional project would be put hold immediately after releasing the first episode, so that I can continue to focus on completely TFTUV. This is all dependent on my workload for the coming months and I certainly don't want to take five months again for the next episode of TFTUV beyond Episode 20. So I guess I'll keep you posted on this.

It may be time to start asking his suporters to migrate to subscriberstar to avoid a huge hit to his income if p@tr3on decides to do some shit again.

Only that Subscriberstar isn't without any issue. Eg. no paypal is an issue to a few. Also they have the almost same TOS regarding , so...

It's interesting that unlike Patreon, SubscribeStar doesn't define what they consider incest, leaving it a bit more open to interpretation.

In either case, it's probably worth remembering that Patreon really only started cracking down on it because their payment processors pressured them to do so. SubscribeStar probably isn't immune to this either depending on who their payment processors are, but may not be attracting as much attention, at least for now.

Edit: I get a bit of a kick out of Patreon's guidelines regarding incest also.

So no fictional incest between blood relatives or immediate family... unless it's a "plot point" of a "larger narrative." Totally nothing arbitrary about this permitted exception. :cautious:
