>>1425 Gats keeps using pheromone cluster to create organs and stuff. Octagonal amulet creates new body parts.
Funk Master can give you the Flawless, Weaponized Body of DPIII, or the hurricane of fire of DPI.
You can rebuild yourself. Faster, stronger, better.

>>1439 Dunno. It creates "Cells." The one use I can remember off the top of my head is that gats suggested using it to give yourself a toxin filtering gland so you could approach DPIII.

>>1442 That makes insect super powerful. Whole body is made out of cells, it could easily fill the role of any body changing item/ability.
I don't like that, it is too much.

>>1442 So theoretically, you could be a master organ donor if you use Drider's Octagonal Amulet to create a new organ that was created by the Insect's Pheromone Cluster?
>Save Physicker>Create and donate large amounts of anti-toxin glands >Physicker keeps the town healthy, and transplants go smoothly >Dragon Princess 3 can live among people without her breath killing them, therefore giving her more friends Best ending.

>>1471 Not bad, but thinking too small.
If you can create new organs, then you can create new life forms, clones, even create an organ that filters her breath as it move through her throat. Make it consciously controlled to retain poison attack capacity.
Fuck it, new build.
Insect, pheromone cluster.
Turn every one into dragons.

>>1519 Fug, gats this makes my head hurt.
So like if I used Soul Dagger to switch the appearance of Goblin and Dragon Princess then transformed Dragon Princess would still weigh a ton despite her appearance? What about general space? Like she'd have to shrink unless you start touching the air around her and feel scales.
You're making me feel bad cause I don't won't to bog you down over pretty much the same question.

>>1553 That I'd
really like to do fluff for? The human kingdom has the most fluff, and as I've been writing the outline for this book, I've come across a lot of cases where these kingdoms would normally be hidden from a human's perspective. Definitely a lot of the undead stuff is fun to write, but also the foreign, extinct and aquatic kingdoms. There's a lot of stuff that isn't in the lewd edition of the chart, and I can't wait to go more in-depth with it.

>>1519 Ah well. Well I can't organize the project and people myself, since I have a ton of other big things to do. I just wanted to give you a base game and hand it off to you and others to fill the content in with. Managing people takes up too much time. So I wouldn't be working on anything TG related without you on board to handle the art and people side of things, or whoever you'd appoint to manage the people.
www.creightr.com is the engine I'm talking about, though. I should have a limited alpha ready within 2 weeks, or a month if I'm forgetting some important things or shit just happens.
There's not really anything to go bust with there, since there could be a playable game up by May easily if people were actually working at it.

Maybe.. invent an organism with the pheromone cluster that turns the insect people's offspring into dragons? They are already eggs…
Doesn't let me become one though…
Guess I could just settle for being amazon big.
Oh! There is a dragon knight right? I'll alt form him. Yeah, that'll do.

Say I go the one-princess-only route and save Dragon Princess 3. I also choose to not have sex with her. These would be my bonuses, right? >Either Wealth or Power Bonus from DP3 (0/0 Wealth/Power prior choosing her)>Maid Kit (never got dowry or worship as both were skipped) >Idol (Does it count if I didn't renounce anything as well?) >Party Dress >Wild Mode (Only DP3 saved, so it counts right?) >Loyal Knight >White Knight >Letters and More Letters (Or only More Letters?) >Champ's Belt Is this right? Because I can only imagine what kind of insane armor that'd be with Dragon Knight, Loyal Knight, and White Knight armor all in one.

>>1557 Is it bad that I imagine High Forest Kingdom as being a literal description? Like the kingdom is located on a canopy of massive trees that people can build cities, special farms, and castles on. There's a bunch of big bridges connecting each tree to each other along with grand stone stairs and ski lift things that connect the treetops to the forest floor. Of course roughly over half of the population work and live below the trees. The higher up the trees you are the more wealth and influence you likely have.

>>1615 I suggested the champ belt originally, which gives me zero authority, but in my mind's eye it was the perfect accessory for one-princess knights. Your theme is really narrow – probably "green dragons" in this case – but it's yours.
If you rescue all three dragons, your theme can be just "Dragon."
It was intended to be a matter of looking at what you took vs what you chose not to take.

Hey there Gats. Just stumbled upon this board recently and have been hooked on towergirls since I found it a few months ago. Love your artwork for it. Over the past year, I've been working at becoming a board game developer and making my own game. I've only had one under construction so far but, of course, I would love to make more. Seeing towergirls really makes me want to turn it into a real, physical game. I'm thinking a simple card game at first. My questions are: - Would it be alright to use your artwork for purposes of making a prototype and eventually turning it into a real game? -Do you have any other sites to follow? eg.Deviantart, twitter, facebook etc. -Would it be ok to keep in touch for purposes of discussing rules and gameplay mechanics, making sure they stay close to the original source?

>Would it be alright to use your artwork for purposes of making a prototype and eventually turning it into a real game? Gats sees this project as the creative equivalent of open source, so go nuts.

>>2259 As long as you create your own assets in the end, I don't mind you using my art as placeholder stuff. The designs themselves are free for anyone to alter, though, so do with them what you'd like.
There's another TCG thread already up, so go ahead and make your own, or add to that one, or do whatever. There's a sizable community here of people willin' to help out. I'd love to see how this stuff turns out.

Is there any fluff on how Rabbit Princess's lust bonus works? Other than "you get unbirthed and rebirthed as a rabbit beastfolk". Like, can she suck you in, prevent the conversion and let you out to roleplay one of those "impregnated with demons that start fucking the mom immediately after birth" plots? More seriously, based on the aging naturally note, could I assume that if I had it used on someone else they'd be in there for a while? As part of aging naturally is gestating for however long is normal for rabbit beastfolk? As such, would it be reasonable to assume I can use Moth Princess's lust bonus to determine how they come out? Assuming kinks created via Theater Masks, Imp princess, and Sphinx Princess stick I may be able to to inflict <3 incest on everyone involved, so there's not much of a problem there, and being able to remove physical negatives like bad breath or congenital insanity is very useful. Assuming they don't want to be rabbits and Moth Princess's bonus doesn't apply and/or can't alter species, there's always wishing for the ability to make it work, either via Funk Master or Wizard Master + Djinn Princess.

Is there any fluff on Mouse Princess and her eleven sisters? Like, what are the personalities of the sisters? Or are they all virtually identical twins and the only difference between them and the Princess is the role of Princess? All we really know about them from the character sheet is that they share everything, implying that they will also share you. Also, imagine this: >You save Mouse Princess. Mouse Princess and her sisters instantly fall in love with you due to max love stat, and you promise that "there is plenty of Ace to go around">You then save Dog Princess, possibly by accident. >Instant war between Dog Princess and 12 Mice

>>3206 I think all we really know about them is that they're clever engineers, inventors, and workaholics. I would -presume- there are subtle variations in style, personality, and interests, but to the uninitiated they probably come across as a tiny, squeaky sisterly hivemind until you've spent a good chunk of time with them.

I want to check my logic for a tower princess run. The whole thing hinges on the fact that I do not have to commit shenanigans in the cart and that things that are not in the cart do not take up space in the cart. Also, that the Amythest Gossamer can be turned into a lust gift (any gift, right?). Step 1) Save Drider Princess (Amethyst Gossamer Free) Step 2) Octagonal Amulet to convince Slime Princess via Dicks Everywhere. Step 3) Save Human Princess Step 4) Acquire P'orc Bone for shenanigans Step 5) Acquire Mithril Rings with Amethyst Gossamer. Step 6) Visit Slime Princess in her tower. Convince her this is a good idea. Somehow. Step 7) Make rings alive and resize one to gate sized. This is Gate 1. Leave it in the tower with Slime and possibly Drider Princess. This shall be Gen I's base. If the spiders will follow me anyway, their princess gets to come with me. Step 8) Take small ring with me, which I shall call Gate 2, as I rescue princesses make it gate sized and get them to walk into it. They (and their loot) are now in the tower with Slime Princess. Shrink the ring and repeat step 8. Step 9) Once I run out of princesses take Gate 2 home or to a princess's castle, whichever has the required space. Set down Gate 2, make it Gate sized, and everyone can come through. Step 10) Relocate Gate 1 so I can drive the cart through it. Step 11) In a fit of caution, do not move a ring through another ring and instead Drive through Gate 2 to Gate 1's new location, shrink Gate 1, and acquire Gate Cart. I can leave this one where it is and just send everyone to my house during Gen II and beyond. They can even come along for the adventure. Note: I'll probably be picking choices to maximize my harem's ability to burn off its own steam. Even with tentacles I'd still have to deal with Awoo, Assassin Princess, and several cases of death by snu-snu not to mention the various Dragon Princesses and their mom. If nothing else, I'm sure Rabbit Princess loves kids. :V

>>3232 If I was going to be an asshole wizard about it I'd say P'Orc Bone wouldn't work on Life Pearl + Mithril Rings as it doesn't have a body nor body parts. Humble Trident fixes this.
If you're worried about wagon space, Encrusted chest means you don't need to bring any Princesses with you.

>>3234 I'm pretty sure most princesses will be at least moderately insulted I'm jamming them in a chest as part of a plan to get everything.
Also, by that logic the P'orc bone won't work on Sword Princess or Ghost Princess, directly contradicting rule 6 of sheet one. Dowries can be used on anyone, and the rings will be as alive as Slime Princess, who should be a valid target. Her eyepatch is a Life Pearl itself.

Do any items have usage limits? For example, Phoenix Ashes seems really really good if it works multiple times, while a lot of the utility of the Rooster's Bell is lost if it only works once.

On chart 4, the phrasing for rewards confuses me. You have to reject every reward to time loop, but "The rewards will not return." Does that mean time loops prevent you from ever getting any rewards besides Tower Princess (and presumably Dullahan and Primeval)? Does that mean I can't use Letters and More Letters in conjunction with my time fuckery? Are my dreams of Tower Princess in a swimsuit for naught?
