Apsidalmosaic
Awesome! On the other hand, that means.... *sighs and ups pledge because of awesomeness...*
Izzy Jones
That would be awesome!
Little Napoleon
Absolutely! You're in luck - I think we have just the character for you. Well, regarding the consensual part, maybe not so much the cheetah part XD But we'll add that to the list!
Apsidalmosaic
Since I haven't seen this in the commenst yet (afaik) and I hope I'm not too late to suggest something: how about something consensual? And I mean really consensual, like "hey, I always wanted to be a sheepdog - great that I actually change!" That would be fun! Otherwise, another vote for TGTF and Cheetahs (cause they are cute...and Edinburgh had a zoo in 1913 ^^)
Wat
Careful LN, last time you made a joke about an animal not existing in Scotland it turned out it did :V
Threyon
I was actually referencing Legion.
Zod
King vegeeta is not amused lol
Little Napoleon
The rare Scottish ape! (Actually, based on the feedback, we will probably make a separate poll specifically for what some of the characters will TF into ^^ Stay tuned!)
Little Napoleon
Ah, I see what you mean! We will try to blur the lines with some of the characters for sure ^^ (Glad you liked that piece!)
Little Napoleon
Thanks a ton! TG we will squeeze in for sure ^^ The war themed TF's might be a harder fit for this story, but I would love to feature that alternate history in a future game someday!
Little Napoleon
I like it! There could even conveniently be a full length mirror in multiple houses ; ) (I'll make a separate note of this suggestion though, since it's not a transformation theme per se)
Little Napoleon
Definitely :3 We'll have Celtic creatures galore - prepare your Wikipediaing!
Little Napoleon
Sure, we might be able to make that happen!
Little Napoleon
Injection might be a tough fit for a historical piece, but magic/curse/otherworldly stuff will abound ^^ We'll see what we can do! :D
Zod
You have fine taste good sir!
Mr Nibz
I like FtM but I especially enjoy it in terms of a gender swap.
Threyon
Yes.
patocheoser
You could add some ape/ primate transformation ? [ref: <a href="http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4514297/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4514297/</a> ]
Nikonos
Several people have already mentioned ferals, but how about intermediate forms for mid-transformation into (or from) such critters? There's one excellent piece from LN that is quite not anthro, but not yet feral either. ( <a href="http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8765161/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8765161/</a> ; NSFW )
Rye black
Ha you can't say no to tits! and you really can't say no to multiple tits ha! I mean I don't need to say anything else just MULTIPLE TITS ;)
Paula Braydi
I wouldn't mind seeing some TG come into play (either way, depending on the audience). Also, I loved your war-themed TF stories with the Russian werebears and the British vixen. I would love to see a storyline that features one of your creations.
Mr Nibz
If Malcolm starts each day in his room/apartment there should be an option to use a full length mirror before starting the day
jpgreen
That's ok the more I thought about it the more I realized that I do what to see some happy endings and knowing my luck I would get stuck seeing more bad endings then my heart could take. so for the most part I would say that I would just really want the Heat ,Clothing incompatibility ,and Losing themselves to their animal instincts on occasion.
Threyon
Yes.
Roidh
Personally I would love to see a feral gryphon transformation. Also since this seems to be referencing celtic folklore, it might be nice to have content of a natural shapeshifter (since they have so many). Perhaps say a selkie or a puca might be interesting.
Xylophone
Would really like to see some shrinking/height-swap TF.
BurntCypher
I was never one for super dark themes, but a touch in the right places gives a bit of depth.
Little Napoleon
Oh yes, we will definitely squeeze in some animals that can operate at a higher level! (P.S.- I love Gromit! <3)
Little Napoleon
Without going too dark, those themes could potentially come into play!
Little Napoleon
All of them! (we'll definitely have a few ^^)
Mr Nibz
Hrrm, I'm going to guess thats the feline fatale?
Little Napoleon
Great! A lot of those would be good fits (and a few are even already in there)!
Little Napoleon
V:
Little Napoleon
I'm shocked it took so long for someone to suggest a bird. We'll do a separate poll later to select a TF form for one of the storylines ^^
Little Napoleon
(You didn't read that one ending already, did you?)
Little Napoleon
Great suggestions! I think we could find a place for most of those!
Little Napoleon
Oh, you're going to love Effie ; )
Little Napoleon
I think we will be able to hook you up with most of that already, in one fashion or another! Except maybe the giraffe - not too many giraffes in Scotland XP
Little Napoleon
Hoowhee! That just made our list a lot longer, haha XD I think most of these could potentially find a place in the game!
Little Napoleon
There might actually be a law on the books that those archetypes must be included in any visual novel.
Little Napoleon
I won't say Changeling Tale follows that exactly, but the parallels are... uncanny o_o GET OUT OF MY MIND, CHARLES!
Wat
I think the theme is a broad "what would you like to see" kinda thing, can apply to how the tf happens (trigger), the elemnts of the tf like when it ends, gender shifting, or what species it is, or the general story themes around it or the relationship (like a dom/sub relationship, mind control, etc). So pretty much anything <should> work as a theme suggestion. And it's mostly asking what you would really like to see, your preferences.
Little Napoleon
I can think of a character that that would be a great fit for :3
Little Napoleon
Probably hiding behind the horse.
Little Napoleon
Oh, that's really interesting! Not only dealing with a change, but the change itself being determined by how they deal with it? What a great idea!
Little Napoleon
I'm not sure we would let the game go too dark, but we might be able to fit in something along the lines of those themes!
Hidoragon
By TF theme do you mean how the transformation happens? Some examples I can think of would be like injection (mutagen etc.) or curse-based (witch's curse, contact with/wearing cursed item etc.)
Little Napoleon
(Totally not biased about multiple tits, nope, not me, no sir ^^;;;)
Little Napoleon
Just a little? :P
Little Napoleon
Sure! Purrfect :3
Little Napoleon
Good suggestions! Those all sound like viable candidates for the game ^^
Little Napoleon
The visual novel format should work really well for what you're talking about there!
Little Napoleon
Yay, we've got a lot of those covered! We may also do a separate poll later to let people decide what Malcolm can turn into ^^
Hidoragon
Not exactly. "anthro" and "feral" are honestly slang terms. Most "Feral" characters in the community are technically "anthropomorphic" as they show human-like personalities, intelligence, or speech. (Anthropomorphism refers to human-like traits, not just walking on 2 legs or having a human-like appearance) Personally I view "ferals" as anthro quadrupeds, and rather use "beasts" to describe animal-minded quads. Though my terms aren't exactly universal or agreed by everyone, just personal perspectives. Honestly i'm a big fan of feral characters as well, but i'm not so much into the degradation of intelligence into an animal mind; at most I can accept individuals gaining feral-like speech patterns or habits (gaining habit to moo, or adding extra s' into Sssnake vocab)
Little Napoleon
That would be a very poignant bad end - we'll note that down!
Little Napoleon
In combination with human to anthro TF, or simply by itself?
Little Napoleon
Love it! We're definitely going to include that sort of thing in the game ^^
Little Napoleon
Cool! We've got most of those in the game (well, except a cheetah; I think Scottish cheetahs had gone extinct by 1919 :B)
Little Napoleon
Centaurs are cool! One would make a great Fae Villager.
Little Napoleon
Those first two could fit! Inanimate TF might be out of scope for an anthro TF-focused novel, but I'll note it down ^^
Little Napoleon
No worries! I'm still learning it too!
Little Napoleon
That might be a little out of scope for this Visual Novel - it was meant to be a bit more lighthearted - but we'll see!
Little Napoleon
We can probably find a way to fit those in!
Little Napoleon
You're in luck, that's in the game!
Perro The Traveler
Is there a word for something that can pass for feral but can still operate like an anthro? Like Scooby or Gromit?
AnnoyedDragon
Discarding their human remnants ;)
Paul Revere
Lots of Feral Tf's !!
Wat
In the future, there's actually a reply button, so you can just reply to the peoples whose ideas you like to support them, no need to copy paste the whole response! :B And we definitely have at least one canine tf :V
Zod
See! Even Wat agrees she's a fish!
Zod
Tearing clothing is a nice visual metaphor
BurntCypher
Corruption, Musk, Heat, tftg, Mind control.
Scott
I really liked the suggestions from 'Rye Black' and 'jpgreen'. Also, to put in my personal preference for a species, I absolutely love canine TF's! Rye Black said, "Multiple tits, Moments of losing themselves to their animal side, Going into heat stuff like that." jpgreen said, "Mind control, Heat, Clothing incompatibility, Losing themselves to their animal instinct, and possible feral bad endings".
Zod
It's like you two have some kind of preconception...
Guardianslade
Well myself am certainly hoping for bunnies, though anything cute and cuddly soft is good *mice, skunk, bear and such since it makes for adorable times* as for fetishes pregnancy, eggs, growth/shrink, multibreast, unbirth, come to mind right away, I've seen one where a person split into little versions of the first, each set smaller than the last. Anything that just keeps feeling like more change is involved. Also turning little fairies into animals is fun too. I've drawn that a bit, I feel it seems to fit smaller animals since little animals are big to them.
affie-beck-lauder
What if it is a bear, that got too close to an owl? Then they are Bear Owl! CRIMEFIGHTERS!
affie-beck-lauder
Go and draw them yourself!
Wat
Maybe an owl? Maybe a owl.. bear? :P
Wat
:V
Zod
...also, because I'd hate to disappoint wat: a FTM story path :A
Zod
also, a bird character or something really different from the current cast could be good
Zod
personally I'd like it if the turned into a feral ending wasn't Necessarily the bad ending. IE there are feral tfs that are good ends and some that are bad based on your interactions with the characters.
Mr Nibz
I'm always a fan of uncontrollable heats. Trying to conceal Transformations in public places. Transformations that can progress or reverse according to a controller or condition. The discovery of new tastes and smells. For felines, grooming behaviors are always fun. I'd love one of the ladies to grow into a more hulking style anthro. Multibreasts are always a plus.
Sheeron
I am thinking something lapine based. The character spends a lot of time in a valley with rabbits
Wat
either :B
Im sure this has already been mentioned,considered, or even done, but i figured i'd mention it regardless to toss my 2 cents. That being said, maybe like some sort of equine tf? horse, giraffe, deer to name a few, anything with hooves, etc. obviously i don't mean have a crap load of em, but it'd be cool to see a few. One scenario i can think of for one is maybe a character turns into something rideable and you can then make them you "Mount" of sorts, just an idea.
Guardianslade
I'm not sure I understand the question. Themes? Like, do you mean fetishes to see included? Since there is a ton of those available. Or actual scenarios?
ComicTF
Also some softballs. Tsundere and Yandere are perfect for transformation themes.
ComicTF
Maybe a mythical creature upset a witch and was turned human. They believe they're human completely until interactions with Malcolm cause the spell to unravel and the love interest has to deal with their old identity slowly returning. The witch could even play the mother/auntie/guardian keeping an eye over the bewitched love interest and having them as their child working for them. Bad end could be that the spell is re cast on the love interest and as a consequence Malcolm also has the spell cast on him resulting in him getting a new body and memories as the love interest's sibling/also working for the witch. Good end would be that they break the spell and have returned to their normal mythical form. It could result in a sort of dual personality/schizophrenic type, which can be fun. Sorry the example was so specific, but i do only mean it as an example. I wanted to say a sort of reverse mind control/they were -blank- all along, but that sounded sorta vague.
Joseph Michael Soldano
Any kind of pet.
Wat
I've got a theme suggestion, I've been on this project for 3 days now, where are all the durgons?? :V
Wat
I think of all our characters and endings you can already consider these themes covered :B
ComicTF
A change that starts off bad in one way and then has the opportunity to shift in a good way. They could start by turning into something unpleasant, and based on the decisions continue down the "bad end" or reach a turning point and change into something appealing in the "good end" Thematically it could be something like the Change reflects a personal flaw in the character (like a failure to act or deal with something) causing them to change into something they dislike. With Malcolm's help they have the opportunity to turn things around and become something they admire.
jpgreen
Mind control, Heat, Clothing incompatibility, Losing themselves to their animal instinct, and possible feral bad endings
Rye black
Multiple tits, Moments of losing themselves to their animal side, Going into heat stuff like that.
Latio
im for an feral fox with a little TG ;D
patocheoser
Maybe with the actual transformation u can add comportemental/habits basically more they are transform more they gain habits or comportements from the animal like for the cat licking their fur and purring etc ..
Perro The Traveler
Muscle bound pig? Instinct play (I mean more than just heat and rutt stuff), flat chest (and I really mean flat like a guy), and multinipple.
Rainoverall
TFTG for PC and/or love interests into one of the fae that started this if not a forest/farm animal. Adding touches of brief concern turned to high arousal can also be interesting. As can showing their feelings/discomfort on their face or in their actions toward/with their transformation can pull ya in more than words or noise. (Though those are obviously important...)
Horse, Dog, Cat, Donkey, Deer TF. Male -> Female or TG is also cool.
Spacix
nonmorphic TF and feral bad ends for PC and love interest; like they TF too far and you lose them or something.
Threyon
Gentle Giantess/Amazon
AnnoyedDragon
Some sort of emphasis on clothing incompatibilities is always fun. The discomfort of trying to contain changing anatomy, a bulge and/or distortion of clothing here and there, trying to conceal what is going on beneath the clothing. Until the animal nature is literally bursting from under their human cloth; undeniable and evident to all around ;) E.g. Picture a character hurrying somewhere private, hastily undoing some clothing, then sighing deeply in relief as they release their mini udder from under constraining underwear. Taking a few moments to enjoy the relief before having to stretch their underwear over it once again, bulging like a well endowed crotch, the shape of teats protruding under the thin matetial, before venturing back out under the guise of normalcy... But eventually it would grow to be impossible to conceal, in time.
Surody
well TG of course and/or something more with canines (dog) or felines (cheetah personally) :P
Nikonos
Centaurs?
Silver Tongue
heat and hypnosis are nice. maybe inanimate? like a statue or something?
