I sent Crust a message about updating the OP but he has yet to respond. Maybe I can appeal to the mods? Not sure how this website works in that regard.
I hope you got a chance to try Transfigure.

Cool, thanks!!
If you read the patch notes I am gradually editing, deleting/ rephrasing/ polishing etc and adding more pictures. It is just a huge project and I tend to focus on content creation over polish until I get some endings and routes finished. I got to please the ravenous readers of Tango Fiction!
So, be patient and I will make things better over time. I promise! If you spot any specific typos or issues be sure to report them, it makes a big difference in terms of quality to eliminate mistakes. I am a perfectionist so I want this to be fuckin' awesome but I realize making something good takes a lot of time and effort and I have to "focus" on my 500 routes and completing the heart of Transfigure before I worry about presentation and smaller improvements.
Thank you for checking in and trying Transfigure!

The quickest way to get your game updated is to either @(username) one of the staff or uploaders(you can see who is online currently staff-wise on the main page)or report post that has link in it and it will go to our staff alerts and we'll quickly see it(we used to have support tickets where you could also do this but haven't had that feature transferred over since site upgrade.)

There is one pregnancy ending in game so far. (Drew route alt ending off concert) More are coming eventually.
Takes longer to download than to play. End game reached after a few screens. Get transformed, play soccer, masturbate, end game. How on earth can this be a .7?
It's almost impressive that someone managed to play the game so badly that they missed every single one of the routes.

It is an alpha and it definitely doesn't take longer to DL than play even if you had a 56k modem. The only way this is possible is if you are the fastest reading human ever... If this is true please volunteer to proofread for me. There are lots of dead ends for now until I finish the core routes. Transfigure has almost 300,000 words or 1000 + pages of content, so if you think that is short maybe War and Peace is a small, light novel you can read over breakfast? I have had a lot of criticisms but the game being too short isn't one of them I commonly field.

Yes, if you don't like to read a text based game is probably not for you. That said, Transfigure has 464 pics/ videos/ gifs at the moment and just under 300,000 words - so it has a lot of content. I also have over 10 gigs of media to add to the game eventually but I want to complete more endings to the game before I go back and restructure and polish / add more pics. And yes, technically Transfigure is AIF not a game but by the time I have completed the 50 + endings and their variations a play through will be pretty unique and most of the choices will matter and effect the outcome so it will become somewhat "game" like.
You cannot reach "any" end in a few click, just a 1 dead end some incomplete routes. Most of the routes with content have 100s of passages - aka hundreds of "clicks".
@Sylvanas The model is Piper Perri, the (yellow potion) transformation is on the Damien route.

And I am agreeing with the first part that is obvious and true while disagreeing with the other assertions/opinions. For example, Transfigure has a large amount of media and it is much larger by content than the vast majority of games on this website. It is not possible to reach all the ends in a couple clicks.
Thanks for trying it out. Maybe check back once I do the cosmetic update early next year and add more pictures for a more aesthetic presentation.
Well, I feel like I should be surprised by the hate on a text based game being rather heavy on the text and light on the porn, but truthfully I'm not surprised by it at all. In my personal opinion (have only played a few routes so far) I feel that the text to video ratio is just about perfect. It's a text based game, so obviously I came into this wanting to be able to read the story, character development, and general progress. For this type of game, I'd expect the pictures to be there to support the text, giving an occasional visual aid to enhance what is being described on screen. That's my basic assumption when going into a text based game and this game delivers exactly that and I feel does a great job at it.
My only criticism is that while the game isn't short by any means, it can feel shorter than it is when you're more interested in certain routes than others. The ones I've noticed having the most development in the recent changelogs are also the ones I currently have the least interest in and the only ones I've yet to actually play through yet, though I'm thinking of playing through them today to give them a fair shake. But I mean, it feels unfair to give this as actual criticism because individual tastes vary and the routes I have played through have been highly entertaining. It's the curse of writing or game development where you're simply going to play through it far faster than the creator can make more of it, and this will be especially true when there are multiple branching storylines available.
But I definitely think it's unfair that you seem to be getting more of a negative response and I definitely don't want it to turn you off to continue doing your work. The simple truth is you've done a good job with the routes that I have played through. Describing the character, interactions, putting it all together and moving it forward at a pace that feels reasonable. Not dragging it out for bloody ever or rushing right through everything. I haven't felt cheated by a lack of pictures or half assed efforts. It takes time to flesh out so many routes, and you'll eventually make it back to the ones I like most so I definitely look forward to seeing even more development from this game!

Thanks for saying so! I had my patrons vote on this when I first started and the ratio seems fine. Still, I wonder if some more early media would entice some of the more casual readers to delve deeper into the stories and get hooked. Eventually I want at least basic images for background areas like Taylor's room, various school areas etc + a few more better fits on image choices / a couple more pieces of media for the more sparse encounters. I had a friend suggest a light vs heavy media version too but I don't want to manage too many DLs/vers.
Which routes are you fond of, way2co0l?
@DrPoods Google image search points to some eastern European websites with no additional pics. It seems to be an unsaucable amateur. If I had more of her stuff I would use it
Hopefully Taylor doesn't drool on himself too much...
