I first came across Changeling Tale after stumbling onto a piece of artwork of Grace, and her unique design (together with my general love of anthro sea creatures) piqued my interest, so I decided to find where that particular character was from. After some quick research, I found out that she came from this game and so I wanted to learn more about it. I was already a fan of the TF genre before, but had never played a game with that being its main selling point.

I will admit that I was a bit uncertain at first at the $20 price tag the game was asking for, since in my currency, that's quite a bit of money, but I decided to bite the bullet and buy it anyways... and boy, I'm glad I did.

This game is nothing short of phenomenal. The art is excellent, the writing is superb, the music is pleasant to listen to, the game's setting is unique and the characters feel believable and and grounded. If I were to say I just loved the game it would be a great misunderstatement! I more than loved it! I adore it!

I honestly cannot remember anything to possibly complain about Changeling Tale. It was just that good. I do have some very personal thoughts about some aspects of the game, such as that Marion cowtaur easter egg being just that and not an actual route we can follow, but these are NOT complaints in my view, just a lil' pet peeve of mine, is all.

As for my questions, the first being: Have you guys thought about translating the game into languages other than English? I feel like it'd allow more people to try Changeling Tale for themselves. Hell, I'm sure the players themselves would be more than willing to help if they're fluent in more than just English. Just some food for thought, really.

My second question is: Do you guys plan to implement a way for us players to create custom stories/scenarios within Changeling Tale? Like, using the game's own assets + anything else we might need to cobble up something separate from the game's main story (such as a custom story where Malcolm transforms all 3 sisters instead of just one, for example).

Anyways, this was all for me. Thank you all for making this incredible game, and I can't wait for the upcoming future content and DLCs.

Really appreciate the feedback, we love to hear from players who enjoyed the game! Happy to hear it was worth your time :B

To your questions:

We would love to translated CT into other languages, but it’s a very costly thing to have done and I don’t think we’re at the level where that could happen right now. CT does pretty well month to month but the text right now is 3 novels long and it’s an actively edited script. So that means it would be very expensive and we’d have to call the translators back every time we do script revisions. If translation were to happen it would have to wait until after the script is closer to being finished so we don’t have to have translations edited as much, or if it started to sell significantly more in order to justify the costs.

There are fan translations that have been working on the game, but those are not under our control and we don’t dictate anything they do. If they need assistance we answer questions for them, but they translate at their own pace.

As for your second question, you can already do that if you learn the Renpy engine. The game engine itself is open source and available for anyone to use. All the assets are there, but working on a project like this is a lot of work so I don’t think many people will attempt it.

Thanks for the post and we’re excited to start working on the next romance! :B
