Is Tailraise NSFW?
Yes. Incredibly NSFW. It contains transformation, kink, and explicit content. If you didn't see the warning above, hopefully you saw this one. I can't make this more obvious.
How do I play the game? Do I download it?
The game runs on any modern device in your web browser. There is no game download! The game runs on Unity powered via WebGL, simply visit the website to play it.
I'm a Patron, how do I access the Patron build?
Play the game normally, but on the main menu you click on the 'Supporter Login'. This will ask you to log in through Patreon and allow the Tailraise app to see your membership status for Tailraise on Patreon. Once confirmed, you will see Supporter Version on the bottom left on the game's main menu.
This means that when you play, any Patron-exclusive content will be downloaded to your device as you access it and play. So NPCs or areas might have new choices or options previously not available from the public build!
Is it free?
Yes! The public build is free, forever. Supporters on Patreon get early access to new and upcoming content, the ability to influence what updates are worked on next, and more.
How often is the game updated?
Supporter builds are updated regularly with new characters, content, and polish every few weeks, typically every two weeks. Public builds are updated once a month, usually with a small amount of new content, usually the oldest content available to Patreons only. This means it lags behind the Patreon build by quite a bit at times and you may not see new content for a month or longer.
Can I play as any gender?
Yep! The character creator allows you to set your anatomy, as well as your pronouns to be referred to as. You can mix and match as much as you please. Your species, anatomy, gender, and how you present yourself are all up to you.
Can I be an official character in the game?
There is a Patreon tier for this ($1000) for people who support me in a major way. This is intentionally expensive, as implementing new characters is a lot of work. Typically, these characters get 10 to 20 pages of content in the game, which includes some lore and typically several smut scenes. Please read all the rules for this Patreon tier before spending any money to ensure you are okay with it before commiting.
You only need to subscribe for a single month at this tier to add a custom character to Tailraise.
What kinks/themes are in the game or are planned to be in it?
A mix of narrative-driven transformation, kink exploration, character-driven storylines. There is an overarching story being worked on and laid out. You're not some hero being called to adventure, this is more slice of life focused with some fun little quests while you try to be a good person.
There's a good variety of kinks planned to try and offer something for as many people as possible. Content that is illegal or against the Patreon TOS will not be considered or added. You can expect kinks/themes such as: chastity, pet play, scentplay, rimming, spanking, watersports, transformation, and more.
Who makes Tailraise?
Tailraise is developed by Taw, a furry vTuber and game dev, with help from a small group of artists and writers. Art in the game typically is commissioned specifically for Tailraise. If you'd like to support development, join the Patreon!
Can I contribute?
For guest writers, please see the guides section, starting with Writing For Tailraise. Art is typically commissioned with agreements on commercial usage.
When will Tailraise be complete? Should I wait to play it?
Tailraise is an ongoing game that is more focused on slice of life and small adventures and tales. You are not some powerful or special hero, called to action to fight against a big, bad villain. There are plans for large, overarching stories and paths, however.
Because of this, Tailraise has no planned end and will be updated monthly with new content, tales, and things to explore. At this time we have no plans to stop development and will continue it as long as people support the development. Consider subscribing on Patreon to help fund the game and its story.
