Glad to have found this game Tentacles Thrive. I don't know why I didn't even think to look here! Can't wait to see what else you bring to this game 🙂
The stories are really awesome and I absolutely love the work that went into the animations. I can't wait to read, play and experience more! Great work!
Honestly, this is one of the best games I have found on this site! I enjoyed the content of and I'm looking forward to how the story around
Bonding Event, or the number of times you have bonded with a specific tentacle, with a max of 5. Relationship points, how much a specific tentacle likes you (don't ask me it's purpose, I don't know XD )
Maestro Nono, I hope you are well and your team, seen so far, seems to me an excellent job worthy of admiration and respect.
It occurred to me that it would be great, I mean, you are the geniuses, but it would be great if you added more characters like the main character, like other towns or hidden towns that are also against the empire and be able to have battles against those characters, or also find allies and build a tentacle village to one day go against the empire or stage some sort of coup, in which case it wasn't just trading with the adeans or on the islands finding a traveling merchant with a cart selling beast tentacles, or at that case make legendary tentacles like some kind of special bosses in different areas or specific areas like some kind of cave or something underground or also some kind of temple.
I hope you read this teacher nono a big greeting I love your work greetings :3
Really wish I could play it, can't really find out how to save the game, I've read everything I can find about the saves, I just can't find any file it downloads so that I can rename it and put it into the same directory (I assume this has something to do with flash not being available anymore but I don't get how other people are able to play it then).
Well, this is Itchi.io, not patreon. If people purchase the game from here, why the fuck would they want to or need to pay for it again on another store front to get updates? Seems to be dead on here, at the very least.
Calm down... I think what they are trying to say is it's not completely dead, it's just in a transfer phase. I mean if this game means so much you can use your money to idk support the developer. Otherwise stop complaining. I'm not saying it's good that the dev has been silent on twitch but saying "SO WHAT" doesn't really do much does it?
I started the game, and was shown a map with no indication what to do there. Then I clicked on some kingdom, had a single chat with some guard and then nothing anymore. Just a map that I can drag with my mouse, and that's it.
And the map being dragged when I try to click something is super-annoying.
Yeah, the beginning has no actual tutorial. Go to the mountain on the map you should see the mountain has some different shapes than the surrounding area hover your mouse around that area and that should continue the game
i used new grounds and an app called flash forwarder for Newgrounds and it works fine its just that the game has not been updated past it SS skill tree
or: To reuse your save, you must rename your newly downloaded file same as the one you saved your game, as well as putting it into the same directory of your previous file.
I do enjoy playing it in Flash but imagine if dev put in a lot of effort and move the project to Unity, switch from 2D drawing to 3D models. It'll take a lot of time... but still... I'm not suggesting, just wondering
i have just checked their patreon a looks like they are quite busy trying to make the switch from flash to some other engine. and that the pace has been picked up again since 2 weeks ago or something like that i can't really follow tbh.
Huge thanks for that update! I wish this page could get those kinds of announcements as well but I'm glad at least to hear that this legend is making progress once more.
Really fun and interesting game, however, the save system is awfully broken on my machine. Neither downloaded or web version seems to keep a save file. An option for a manually input save would be pretty great, as a way to circumvent this issue. It's a bit of a shame for such an interesting concept to have a glaring issue like this, but overall, the game itself is really nice. (Could use with some directions at the start, tho)
wait, huh? what happened to the story interactions with the tentacle monsters? the narratives about taming them. it's what I downloaded this again for.
Is there a discord or somewhere to get more reliable updates on this project? I'd really like to see the progress and more directly support the game's development.
is there hopefully a way for you to make a web version without adobe flash ? becasue... u know it doesnt exist anymore and i wanna try this strategy game(no i cant download because of reasons im not gonna explain)
Hi! I was playing your game quite... a lot! I saw some bugs. There's something wrong with secret memory, because when you loose you tentacle monster by injuring or training or releasing it, the secret memory from bonding disappears with your tentacle child. Also when you loose territory... for example. You gained Shadowcliff, Snowkeep and Lowebank. When enemies attacks your territory idk what to do! I can't lead my monster because I need at least 6 allies, but I have trained more than 6 monster on each territory and I have 8 monsters in my army. So I'm forced to loose territory. And when you loose Snowkeep and Lowerbank (for example) you have blocked Shadowcliff, but enemies didn't attacked Shadowcliff. And when you gained Lowerbank and Snowkeep again then the Shadowcliff is like a buggy bomb. It's still yours, but not somehow. It doesn't look like yours, and you can invide this, but when you do this then whole game broke. Even after winning it's not showing that it belongs to you and when you try to invide it again or other territories, whole game broke even more and you stuck with inviding screen and actions box. I have bugged like this Shadowcliff and Lowebank. You can see that is somehow is still mine so I have unlocked other territories, but is not showed like mine. And I can still invide them but when I do it...
(don't mind the army It's random, because I loose it to have some space for more monsters)
Everything seems normal from the beginning. But you can clearly see after gaining it I can still invide it and when I will click it. This happens..And I'm stuck like this.
There's also one bug in fighting. When a tentacle monster and enemy kills themselves at the same time, game stops. Not crash, but stops and nothing is moving forward anymore.
I also want to add that maybe change kinda Queen's nest mechanic. I mean, to choose with which monsters to breed instead of randomly. Because breeding different monster species by hoping on game that will choose right ones is really annoying and time consuming, it makes me really tired! And maybe more about the monster's type where to find it? Clicking on whole map looking for one is a bit boring. Also I think that adding some build or something like that, that you can have on your gained territory to keep more monsters will be great!
But I still love this game and I hope it will be still developing to better! Love your game. Keep going!
There is a "gallery" of sorts. Go to the house area and click on the journal. There's a section in there called "secret memory" where you can relive all the bonding events you've discovered thus far.
yo to whoever created this. I've been meaning to say this but pls change the length for the legs in the H-acene for Dolphy it's very disturbing to do the "deed" if I see those legs every time PS. thank you.

sorry if my english is not good 🙁
Thank you for the kind words.
you cant save
I downloaded the game for my Mac, but I don't know how to open the swf file. Please help me.
They're no longer supported, but you should be able to find stand alone flash players somewhere, if you look for them.
What is BEvt and RP? Is there a manual or guide somewhere? I found an unofficial wiki but it did little for explanation of basics.

I seem to be having problems with saves, I save the game and it doesn't actuly save, the saves just aren't there (Unless I just can't find them)
Same :'( and it doesn't even open. I've had to delete it but hopefully it'll be resolved.
Run the game as admin. I had to run it as admin, close it, then run it as admin again and it worked.
Wonder if anywhere there is a newer version and is for android
not yet, but there was a new update about the game in the dev patreon, for now, they haven't dropped the game, we can expect new content soon
Yay! Hopefully it comes out soon. I really enjoyed playing it
Really wish I could play it, can't really find out how to save the game, I've read everything I can find about the saves, I just can't find any file it downloads so that I can rename it and put it into the same directory (I assume this has something to do with flash not being available anymore but I don't get how other people are able to play it then).

I'm just giving you the info that I have found. And no one is forcing you to buy the game on here.
"This game is free but the developer accepts your support by letting you pay what you think is fair for the game."
No need to be rude.

Do other people have the issue that this game does not save at all? Both the .swf or .exe versions. Any suggestions for a Windows 10 user?
with flash being gone, how can this be played?
download the exe with it
What program do I use to open this on a linux?
You can use Windows executables if you set up wine.
I started the game, and was shown a map with no indication what to do there. Then I clicked on some kingdom, had a single chat with some guard and then nothing anymore. Just a map that I can drag with my mouse, and that's it.
And the map being dragged when I try to click something is super-annoying.
I hope that an update arrives any time soon.
Yeah, the beginning has no actual tutorial. Go to the mountain on the map you should see the mountain has some different shapes than the surrounding area hover your mouse around that area and that should continue the game
any word on updates or is this game dead? would be a shame because it's a great game.
I think the developer has some health issues :/
oh geez, I hope he's alright. Thanks for the info.
save don't work properly: one day i play, i save and leave. and tomorrow when i try to load the game, nothing happens... i have to start a new game
same here, just get it from another source
wdym by "another source"
i used new grounds and an app called flash forwarder for Newgrounds and it works fine its just that the game has not been updated past it SS skill tree
or: To reuse your save, you must rename your newly downloaded file same as the one you saved your game, as well as putting it into the same directory of your previous file.
What do you mean by "newly downloaded files" ?
I've downloaded it for mac but it seems that I can't play it, I unzip the file and nothing. Please, tell me what to do
You might need an swf player/swf plugins for MAC browser.
No android, sad
The game won't let me access my previous save.
I do enjoy playing it in Flash but imagine if dev put in a lot of effort and move the project to Unity, switch from 2D drawing to 3D models. It'll take a lot of time... but still... I'm not suggesting, just wondering
You should check their Patreon. That's exactly what they're working on right now.
Hi, is there a way to fix overpopulation?
you could release or let them die? thats about it for now tho it seems
Hey, how are you doing? Been a while since last update, just checking out!
i have just checked their patreon a looks like they are quite busy trying to make the switch from flash to some other engine. and that the pace has been picked up again since 2 weeks ago or something like that i can't really follow tbh.
Huge thanks for that update! I wish this page could get those kinds of announcements as well but I'm glad at least to hear that this legend is making progress once more.
THATS why... I thought the dev died during the outbreak or somethin
Thanks a lot for that info!
I tried using the .exe, but it just opens flash player without doing anything. I know I could just use the SWF but how am I supposed to use the .exe?

i cant find the tracks in the woods
Can you make a non-flash version please?
is there a way to get rid of some creatures because it keeps on saying overpopulation in the secret gardens
wait, huh? what happened to the story interactions with the tentacle monsters? the narratives about taming them. it's what I downloaded this again for.

I hope this game get remastered or something.
It says it needs flash but the link says flash got taken down in 2020. What do i do? Will my windows 11 play this.
Use Flashplayer Project Content Debugger or other similar alternative
I downloaded it anyway, and it just works. Maybe windows 11 comes with it. Thanks.
Show post...
You can still play flash game without flash you can download it. You can't just play flash in browser anymore.
great game, feels broken as fuck (with bugs i mean) though. hope the updates come smoothly
nice game, but it needs alot of work, it's hard to figure out breeding grounds for new tentacles, also add a gallery so we could track our progress
finding the grounds isn't that hard if you read the joural entries. it is written in a way that you can narrow it down to 1 or 2 areas
There is a "gallery" of sorts. Go to the house area and click on the journal. There's a section in there called "secret memory" where you can relive all the bonding events you've discovered thus far.
