I'm glad you're enjoying the game! ♥
The mirror (specifically in "IRL") needs some more work, yeah. There are a few places where some of the options may come up empty currently. Thanks for the bug report, tho. :3
And thank you for playing!
Honestly, I'm surprised to hear that anyone has FOUND the item without being told about it, lol. It's pretty hidden, so you're the first person who's brought it up to me like this. Anyways, the Password Menu is basically just an item used for silliness/memes/inside jokes, and has no real gameplay purpose.
The usable passwords as of Transportal 0.5.2 are:
"LilySauce", "password", "trans", "Transportal Eggs" , "vending machine", "skirt go spinny", "hydration check", "pride", "healing", and "penis".
Some aliases for the same effects are "1234" or "Password", "transgender", "Transportal eggs", "hydration" or "water", "flag", and "heal" or "help". The button that's labeled "remove excess silliness" should remove any effects the passwords themselves have caused, but it's probably still wise to save before messing around with the item. :)
Thanks for playing! ♥
Hello! The "A Distant Friend" quest has to be completed AFTER the Well Inspection quest.
The solution to the puzzle for getting into the well in the City of the Four is:
1. Use "Inspect Area".
2. Use "Unseal" on the STATUE near the well.
3. Use a Rope key item on the well.
I hope that helps!
Thank you for playing, and thank you for the kind words! ♥
I’ve had a similar issue happen before from moving individual saves around. Try doing the following:
1. Back up your entire save folder just in case.
2. Move your save folder somewhere else, so there is no “save” folder in the game’s directory.
3. Start a new game, then save the game in all of the slot numbers that correspond to the saves that you’re trying to recover.
4. Close the game, and copy + paste your actual saves in the “save” folder - replacing the new “dummy” saves you made.
5. Run the game, and see if your saves can be loaded normally.
Let me know how it goes! ❤️
Edit: Also, assuming you’re on Windows… I suggest having your game directory stored in a folder somewhere on your drives (instead of somewhere like your Desktop or Downloads folder).
I appreciate the kind words! Doing my best to write from a progressive mindset (i.e. one which is positive about diversity) is important to me, so I'm grateful for the feedback! And as a side note, I am trans myself. :)
About the saves:
(I'm assuming you're on Windows)
At least when moving saves from 0.4.6 to 0.5.2, you should be able to just transfer the entire "save" folder directly into the new version. :)
Thanks for playing!
I'll keep working hard on Transportal! ♥
Hi! While I do appreciate the input, I've also received plenty of feedback which is basically the opposite of this.
In my personal opinion, I would rather not delay releases simply for the sake of the artwork being in color. I enjoy having a playable game which gradually becomes more and more polished, while its amount of content also gradually expands.
Thanks for playing! ♥
The person who commented below seems to be more knowledgeable about Linux than me, heh. Good luck if you decide to try getting it running on Linux!
I know some people have gotten Transportal to run on Linux, but the only OS I personally am able to currently test the game on is Windows. I don't currently have any solid plans to do a more dedicated Linux release... but we'll have to see.
Thanks for playing! ♥
Hello!
Although the non-Windows versions of the game are untested, I've been told that people have gotten the game running on Android devices by using Transportal's "Web" release, as well as Joiplay.
That's about all the help I'm able to give on the subject, though - at least currently.
Thank you for your interest! :)
Hi! It can be tempting to give people estimates on release dates, but I try to refrain from doing so since they are very difficult to make accurate (especially as a solo developer)!
Instead, I tend to give a bit of vague information about what new content I’m working on in this kind of situation - but since you haven’t played the game yet, doing so would seem a bit silly. XD
That said, the game is actively being worked on.
Thank you for your consideration! Sending love. ❤️
Thank you for the positive words, and thank you for considering supporting the Patreon!
And regardless, I appreciate you playing the game.
Sending love! ♥
Hi! There already is a Discord.
Initially joining it is gated behind a single payment to the Patreon, and then certain channels and voice chats are gated behind an active Patreon subscription. :)
You do also need your Discord and Patreon accounts to be linked.
Thanks for your interest! ♥
Hello! All of the music currently used in Transportal (aside from one small track I made which is used as an easter egg) is either a free-to-use asset, OR came with RPG Maker MZ itself.
If you're interested in finding out the sources for the music, you can look at the "Credits > MusicCredits" folder located in the game's files. :)
Thanks for playing! ♥
