Any news about the 3d version public release?
I am trying to get it out as soon as possible but I want it to be an impactful first release since first impressions are important. I believe it is currently above average quality but the bar isn't super high so I want to keep going and complete the demo I initially envisioned. The complete demo will have the first day, 3 or 4 endings, and the starts of several major routes. I've done 3 releases privately for my patrons and results were positive but it isn't complete enough for public consumption. I have about a dozen placeholders to fill in and then I am close. I expect to release 0.0.1D to patrons later this month and if it is well received publicly next month. I am constantly upcycling assets and changing things so it is only recently that I have finished enough quality assets to start filling in the early game to the point it is presentable.

If anyone wants to play it they can ask but they need to be aware it is a preview of a demo and they will potentially have to click ignore through some missing assets and bugs.

I mean name of actresses... can't find anywhere
The source is the actual couple. There isn't a lot of content because they are a private couple not a porn star duo. Send them a PM and bribe them if you want more content.

Here you can see a banner with Taylor transitioning to her most powerful form, bunny Taylor.

Power levels from left to right are 10, 8, 1600, and 9999.

I've been messing around making some banners and promotional materials. Any routes, outfits, or transformations you'd like to see highlighted?

Lots of updates coming soon!

The various spy/bodyguard scenarios. Those are enough unlike the bulk of the routes that it would be refreshing to play (and maybe to write).

In my opinion some of the best content in the game will be in this section but not many people vote for it.

Thank you all for the suggestions!!

In the meantime...

any news for the og html version? or is that discontinued?
.60 html and 0.0.1D 3D will be out for patrons this week. It is a lot of work to do everything myself but I am trying my best to manage all the jobs that need doing. I've worked on this game for over half a decade with barely any resources so I'm not going to quit until it is done. I'm determined to succeed or die trying.

TangoTF Are you basing the 3D version of Taylor off of the model from the 2D game (I think her name is Caprice)? She was one of the things that really elevated your game. She was very pretty but also slightly tomboyish at the same time. Also, just using the same model throughout the game was a huge plus as well, since the majority of games that use real assets don't bother to have much consistency.

Hi HenWen.

Yes, I am trying to base the 3D characters off the originals where appropriate. The consistency level should be a lot higher because I have more control over the visuals. For example Yellow Potion Taylor is actually a transformed Taylor instead of Caprice transforming into a different model (Perri). Same with the large breasts. Taylor with large breasts is better than Taylor turning into a different model with those features since that's what I intended but was unable to show with the limitations of real assets I don't control.

The Taylor model is actually made with high resolution textures from the original Caprice. The model isn't 100% accurate facial structure wise, because no model is but it turned out better than I was expecting.

Major update to Transfigure's 3D Patron Preview Demo



TL;DR: Demo is looking more presentable and now has Mitch, Evan, and yellow potion content.

P.S. I am still considering beta testers if they are willing to provide feedback to help me improve the game.

I joined the patreon to get access to the 3D version of the game so I could try it out. I was skeptical at first, but I have to say I'm impressed with the character models and the level of polish so far. I'm looking forward to the future of this project.

TangoTF Do you plan on adding animations at some point?

Does that include debugging the html for potential errors? Because that's too close to my actual work to also do it in my spare time :LOL:
At this point in development I hope there aren't too many code bugs in the html (Python is another story, heh). Typos seem like an endless plague but I squish a few every day.

Thank you, HenWen! That's very encouraging. I do tend to find most skeptics get converted if they give it a chance. I still think the demo needs more work before a public release but I promise it will get a lot better from its current state. I want to be able make a good first impression.

As for animations, since you are a patron you will find some discussion of this topic in the comments of previous releases. I have also recently released an animated music video for patrons as a test. So, yes animations will probably get added. At the minimum I will try to make some kind of intro video as well as expand the "faux animation" style that exists, for example on the Mitch route. I can make animations like that pretty easily.

At its core it is a matter of resources. Animations are more time consuming to produce both in render time and labor.

I am a shoe-string developer so I can't make the best of everything but I can try my best to make something cool.

Thanks for supporting my project!

They never are, anytime you see a model based on X or Y, it might look great on one still render in the right pose and expression. Then you try to bring them to life with their smile, but it just won't look the same.

I think you nailed her nose and the face is definitely recognizable. Honestly the hardest part to get right might just be her breasts. Not kidding.

So I gather there will be a public release in future for the 3d version. Sweet

Yeah, I've seen some pretty grotesque expressions on various faces. Like the kind if seen in real life you'd run the other way. I've also struggled to recreate some celebrity models but the cast is getting fleshed out and looking closer to the image in my mind with every update.

It is a challenge to get nipples and areola to match. Caprice has an amazing chest so it is hard to match.

Thanks for dropping by, Nicke!

I will release the demo publicly once it I think it is good enough to do so. It needs at least one more solid update if not 3-4. The demo is already larger than a lot of VNs released on this site but I still feel like it only shows a tiny slice of the varied content in my story. It also has four endings which is a lot for a complete VN, let alone a demo. Transfigure is a very ambitious title and I want to show that from its first impression.
