Changeling Tale Scope & Progress
Occasionally people ask us how close Changeling Tale is to completion, and it's a tough question to answer, because Changeling isn't exactly a normal game with a linear narrative. It might be better compared to a serialized or graphic novel, where it's less about the whole picture, and more about each issue that gets released!That said, now that we've hit our last Romance Funding Goal, Changeling Tale's scope has been finalized and we can share with you how much has been done and how much content there is still to do. I want...
Back from Anthro New England!
We're back from Anthro New England, and we're happy to say that the convention went really well! The panels were well-attended—two out of three ended up being standing room only—and the demo station seemed to have folks playing at it round the clock. Thank you to everyone who played the game, to all the fans who said hello, and to those of you who discovered Changeling Tale at the convention: Welcome!What's next? Now that I'm home and don't have panels and demo stations to manage, I'll be throwing myself at game art ...

Changeling Tale 0.5.1 for Beta Testing (Major Spoilers, NSFW)
Hello Beta Testers!Whew, had to pull an all nighter to iron out the bugs on this one! At long last here is the Beta Build for Marion's Chapter 3!Windows DownloadMacintosh Download Linux Download It's our most ambitious chapter yet! You'll notice there are quite a few placeholder sketch assets this time, because 1) we spent a lot of time sketching since this chapter has more scenes and frames than any other girl's chapter so far, and 2) we focused on finishing the many sprite alternates for Marion's new forms and outfits this...
Beta Release ETA & News
Hey guys! We'd hoped to have the new beta build ready for you today but there's still a few scenes that need to be sketched out, and we want to make sure they're up to the standard of quality you expect (i.e. not stick figures :P). It looks like we'll need about 2 more days to polish things up, so expect Marion's Chapter 3 Beta Build to drop to our Beta Tester tier this weekend!In addition to some new sprite sets like what we showed earlier in the week, this chapter will feature *deep breath* 11 new scenes 15 new sets of fra...
Grotto Theme
Cheasy has been working on a few new tracks, including this one for the grotto and some other tunes for the Fae World, when it comes time to visit there! Now that this piece is finalized and mastered, you'll hear it playing during the grotto scenes in the next update. I can't overstate how lucky we are to have Cheasy on the team! Hope you enjoy his new song! The .mp3 and lossless .wav are attached ^^
Marion Sprite Alternates (Hi-Res, Minor Spoilers, NSFW)
Attached are the high resolution versions of Marion's sprites, clothed and nude, for your viewing pleasure! Enjoy!
Marion Sprite Alternates (NSFW, Minor Spoilers)
As we wrap up the materials for the Marion Chapter 3 Beta, we want to share some of the new sprite alternates we've been working on!Unlike other visual novels where the character stays the same, a TF visual novel has characters whose sprites have to be redrawn several times over the course of the story. The third chapter of these girls' arcs is particularly labor intensive, not just to draw their new forms, but also to create new outfits to fit their new forms!Of course it wouldn't be a sexy visual novel without a sprite sans clothe...
Rhoswen: Add a Dog Species Romance to the Game?
Rhoswen the police Cait Sith was one of the original characters for the game, and there was a stretch goal to make her into a romance option, which was met in 2017. Since then, though, we've learned that we'll have another romanceable Cait Sith in the Fae World (one of our Fae Adventurers). That would leave us with two romanceable cat characters!This means we have an opportunity to change Rhoswen to a Cu Sith - the canine equivalent of the feline Cait Sith - thus adding another romanceable species to the game! But we want to make sure a...
Is a Cow Girl's Udder SFW?
EDIT: Based on your responses we will err on the side of caution and treat udder content as NSFW. To be clear we won't be removing any udder content, we'll just keep it concealed in the game's optional SFW mode! Thanks a ton to everyone who offered their feedback-- you made some great, insightful points! I've never seen so much thoughtful discussion on this topic!We're working through what does and doesn't need to be filtered out of the game's SFW mode, and have run into an important question — perhaps THE most imp...

New Logo & Help Us with a New Trailer!
Hey guys! While we set up the next chapter, Marion's Chapter 3, we've been taking the opportunity to polish up the images and videos players see when they first run across Changeling Tale. Things have come a long way since we made those first screenshots and trailer back in early 2017, and it's about time they reflect the current state of the game! The thing is, now that the game is in full swing, we no longer have the time to make a new trailer ourselves D:That's where you guys can come in! We're looking for someone with di...
