Transfigure Walkthrough Update + Cute YP Renders
Added 2023-07-18 02:10:25 +0000 UTCIt has been years since the walkthrough has been updated so it needed a lot of work. I think there are four or five fan walkthroughs but I am qualified to make the first one and keep it simple so that’s why I put some time into it this month. It was a lot easier to explore the massive story web without lag on my new setup to jot things down.
The other reason I updated this is I often get messages from users stating they beat all the content in the Transfigure in 1-3 minutes which is obviously impossible given the massive amount of paths and characters. It is my #1 pet peeve as a developer when people go beyond offering opinions and just outright lie for no reason whatsoever. I’ve been a gamer essentially my whole life and I cannot recall a single gamer (or review) ever referring to a massive game (outside of mine) as small in any genre. Yet it happens to me so often that either everyone is a speed-reading supercomputer, I am being trolled, or I have structural issues in the story. Probably more of the latter two.
The other obvious part of the problem is the game isn’t complete. I will fix the dead ends by finishing them. Another issue is that some users don’t want to explore and so therefore never realize how much content exists in the game.
I read one comment this week describing Transfigure non sarcastically as “small” among a lot of other things. One comment is nothing but I’ve received so many that I wanted to do this update to help readers find things they might be missing.
The walkthrough contains spoilers, many obvious, many not (including ending titles). The walkthrough isn’t complete because the game needs to be finished first and I don’t want to include all of the ends that haven’t been released yet. The formatting sucks but it is better than the original. I put a table of contents at the start.
The updated version shows exactly how to get to most of Transfigure’s current ~40ish endings and point you to major content blocks.
Current endings:
End 2: Mrs. Drachmann’s Married Life (Drew), End 6: Hedonist (Mitch), End 8: Happiness, End 9: The Power of Science!, End 11: Damien’s Little Girl, End 15: Concert Blackmail (Dunko’s End), End 16: The Nuthouse, End 17: Stockholm Syndrome, End 18: Untimely Death, End 19: Jailhouse Blues, End 20: Apple of my eye (Marg), End 23: Repopulating the New World…, End 24: Single Mom, End 27: Lucas’ Private Slave, End 28: A failure of willpower (Lucas), End 32: Mixed Memories, End 33: Teddy Bear, End 36: Transformative Brothel, End 37 Oculus Sleeper (Ariana), End 43: Corporate Guinea Pig, End 44: College Fable, End 46: At Drew’s Side, End 47: Self Destruction, End 51: Zen Master’s Disciple, End 52: Self Mastery, End 54: Recovered Roux, End 55: Transfigured Chain Reaction, End 58: Celebrity Candy (Leon), End 60: A little girl in a big world, End 61: Craig’s “Wife”, End 65: Cosplay Chameleon, End 66: Amugi Scale Breaker / Kawaii Goddess, End 67: CCP PPA (Public Pacification Asset), End 74: Trailer Wife (Deter), End 75: A Little Slut With Big Appetites, End 76: Buyout Beauty, End 77: NDA or KIA, End 80: Mixed Results

Hi Miro. The quick answer is nothing has changed in my dev plans for the past 5 years except Transfigure grew a bit bushier than expected. I always intended to do a remake in Ren Py with alternate graphics and finish both games. I may also make another html project one day, especially if I can figure out how to monetize it. The issue with html is that everyone reposts it and makes lots of money and I make very little despite doing all the work. If there was some kind of agreement where I could take a rightful slice of the many $10ks of ad revenue then it would be different but as now it is difficult since I do 100% of the work and get 0% of the money. With those resources I would have been able to finish the project in its original timetable. Transfigure is massive project that I thought would take 5 years fully funded. I almost feel like I need to release the 3D version so I can double the page income and get enough hours to work on the html version more since I am essentially using it as the base of the Ren Py game. The games are synergistic. Completing one will lead to the completion of the other. One thing I am considering though is that the html version may lower the sales of the Ren Py edition. So I might complete Transfigure after Transfigure 3D to encourage people to actually buy the game and support me instead of just playing it, enjoying all the stories for free and making a third party some cash. As a writer, if I can't sell my stories then I starve to death and there are no stories so I have to find a sustainable way to move forward. Being a solo dev is by far the hardest job I've ever had with by far the lowest pay but I am not ready to quit yet because I have stories I want to tell. If I make a living wage from this then I will continue creating. Thank you for your longstanding encouragement, Miro. I only made it this far because of patrons like you!

2023-07-19 01:15:58 +0000 UTCI was just wondering. Do you plan to fully complete the current version of the game. At in all paths and endings and finished, before you stop working on it in favor of your new engine version? Or will at some point you just be converting it wherever you are progress wise, to the new engine and art styles I really like html games because I can play them on my tablet. And the real porn is really immersive for me so I just wanted to ask. I've been following your game for years now and am still honestly surprised you've continued development for so long. I think I can count on one hand the amount of devs in that genre that have done this.
