I don't have an official ETA on the public update but it should be very soon. :'3
Essentially at this point the second chapter is just waiting on a small art backlog from my artist and once I can deliver that to patreon members, the Mori update will be published for the public. Check back in a few weeks, I'll make a post when I have a more solidified timeline!
Thanks for letting me know about this error! It seems that it is something tripping up between Ren'Py and your browser, so unfortunately, I can't fix it. There's more info here if you want to look deeper into it: https://github.com/renpy/renpy/issues/2814
In the meantime, i recommend downloading the game and playing the desktop version. 👍
Thanks for playing! The Mori update coming is going to be a public release of the Patreon-only chapter; which is this chapter plus more art assets, polish, and 18+ scenes. Each subsequent character will have a similar standalone chapter and then after that I'm going to begin working on the main game with full character routes.
So I've only played a few minutes of this VN and I am already head over heels for it! But before I get too invested there is just one question I have to ask, one that I don't want you to take personally. That question is, this VN is still alive and kicking right?
I am currently working on the second character's intro chapter and have lots of plans for further development! I expect the next update to be sometime in April. (I am a solo dev so I need a fair amount of time lol)
Yeah, ren'py games are very unstable in browser, ESPECIALLY on mobile, sorry about that! An android version will be a thing eventually, I just don't have an ETA. Thank you so much for the interest tho! <3
At first, I wasn't exactly sold on Mori. I thought he wasn't my kind of guy... but he definitely grew on me. Plus, who could say no to that big, muscular, demon cat UwU I'm eagerly looking forward to future updates! <3
Just some really minor behind-the-curtain/maintenance stuff, nothing story related. I'll make another big devlog post when the next major update is ready so you definitely won't miss it. 🙏
OML this has been an absolute blast so far!! i love everything about it, the story, the music and the visuals! all stunning!! the dialogue and choices are relatable and hilarious too! also, *ahem* as a gigantic furry, mori's monster form got me feeling things, literally kept jumping up and down in my chair trying not to pass out from how flustered i was. CAN'T WAIT FOR FUTURE UPDATES!!
I'm on it! Working right now on an improved version of this episode with 18+ content and then I'll be releasing new characters! You can also keep an eye on the Tri City Monsters discord as I tend to post weekly progress updates there!
Yes, Mori has SUPER fluffy paws! His bakeneko form is definitely best suited for cold mountains and having all that fur keeps his beans warm and protected. :D
I'm so going to daydream about Mori later <33 I loved playing this so much!! I really had fun going through the dialogue, plus I love love love chaotic characters (who also double as fine af) and I completely recommend for others who are reading this to play it as well!! well done, dev(s)! :D<3
Thank you for playing!! I literally cannot wait to bring the spicy Mori content out. My artist and I are both super excited for him to show off his secret tattoo!
Captivating!! I was already way into this concept because hellooooo monster boys but the script has an incredible charm from the get go and the sprite + cg work is lovely. Kaito's design is a marriage of a lot of things I love so I might be heavily biased but uuuu I care him....
Hungry for more of him and more of this world. Looking forward to future content from the team.
Thank you so much for playing TriCity! I'm so happy to unleash this chaotic man into the world <3
I'm working very hard on delivering more content including new characters and more of Mori himself (as well as spicier content) + I'm hoping to have more news to share very soon!
Hello again!! I know it's been a while, but I've been keeping up with the updates but as the KS recently launched I decided this was a great time to come back and play what you've released in the last couple years- and ohhhh my god was I not disappointed!! Not that I expected to be but omg, my socks were knocked off! Hunger satisfied! Etc!
Mori is still my tried & true favourite but the new boys did try very valiantly to knock that position from him. He's still a marriage of so many good pieces and god, there's no other fictional character I would want to mosh with. He's precious.
That being said, Akello and Amir are fantastic additions that charmed me immediately! I loved the introduction to both of them and much like before when I fell in love with Mori, I'm eager to see more of them!
I've pledged to the KS already but hopefully if I can scrounge up some more funds before the backing period is over I'd love to splurge for one of the dakis because they look absolutely beautiful. You've had my support since the first time I played Mori's demo, and you'll have it going forward, no matter where Studio Peaches goes in the future past this project. Thank you so much for your hard work, and the absolute best of luck to you all during your funding campaign.
Looking forward to the future of this world and these boys once again. <3
Than you SO so much for coming back to check out the updates and for the KS support!! I'm so happy you enjoyed Akello and Amir's introductory chapters and I'm really excited to develop them and Mori further in their own routes for the complete developmental arcs and take the MC along for the ride. Mori's a hard act to follow to be honest, there's just something irresistibly charming about a stinky bastard man who relishes in being skeevy but I'm delighted that Amir and Akello have found their own charm. Thanks for sticking around and I can't wait to show you what's coming down the line for TCM!
DAAAMN and HOLYYYY!!! Am I allowed to support you somehow...?? This was WAY too good and SO unusual or unique! I absolutely can't wait for future updates, so I sincerely wish much more content is planned ;P Since the page here suggestively hints at something like that, yeah, I'm hopeful and exited~
Even though the dialogue is silly throughout I still love it, that's partially because there's a big chance I'd react a lot like the protagonist does when you decide to go with all positive choices. ^^
Although I can't really say much about the two characters so far, they're nicely written. Both give off a pretty natural impression.
What can I say about the artwork? It is quite stunning, and how background and foreground create contrast without being distracting toward each other feels seamless.
The lack of nsfw is definetly disappointing, not gonna lie, but the story will make up for it.
I'm glad "Tri City Monsters" got me hooked again on (furry) visual novels. Unfortunately well written does often not equal engaging any more. Thankfully though, this game captivated and pulled me in. It became one of my favorites. The sudden cliffhanger, however, was a bit harsh.
You should consider making a Patreon account. Personally, I'd be willing to join.
In any case, I thoroughly enjoyed your game, despite initial reluctance. After a few more updates I'll be sure to remember rating 5 stars and writing a review.
So, I wish you the best of success for your project. But take care as well, take a break if it becomes necessary too. My favorite thing in this preview was the close up of Mori's bakeneko face. So cute and adorable =^.^=
<3 from Germany~
(Also, doesn't the genre Otome usually target a different group of people...? I, for one, am gay as hell. Get it? And am I correct to assume, you're Japanese? Edit: never mind "located in Arizona" has been found)
Yes! I do have more coming and I'm hoping to get on more content quickly! I have plans for 5 new romanceable characters in addition to Mori plus full stories for each. I also plan on including NSFW content with full uncensored cgs. TriCity was actually submitted as a Jam game and one of their rules was no adult content until judging was over. Further updates will definitely have it though!
I'm in the process of planning the rest of the game and putting a patreon together so that I can build up a little TriCity community as we move forward so please stick around, I would love to have you.
Also as far as otome goes, from my understanding, typically that genre is aimed at straight women- which, I realize is a different demographic than gay men, however while TriCity is pretty nontraditional for an otome, I feel like it could appeal to both audiences as the Love Interests will be compatible with the player no matter what pronouns they choose. And also I'm still adjusting my grasp on the Itch sphere of otome style games and the communities in the greater Visual Novel World so there might be some adjustments to tags and stuff later. :)
I will forward your compliments to my artist, I'm sure they'll be stoked to hear it. Thank you so much again for playing and leaving such a thoughtful comment and I hope to bring you some tasty new stories soon. (And also yes! Not Japanese, just your friendly neighborhood desert-dweller! :D )
Sounds awsome =D Can absolutely not wait! Say, when will I be able to join Patreon? Is perhaps a Discord server planned too? If so I'm not sure I'd join there, but Patreon for sure.
It do be like that sometimes, itch games can be confuzzling with them tags >.>
Alright, I'm looking forward to what you have in store for us ;)
Very soon! I am working on getting them up and running right now. I will make a post about so no worries, you'll definitely know when its ready! Thank you so much, again!
I downloaded the game expecting a fun, punky, world-of-darkness-vibes story and got oh so much more! I'm so glad you didn't do the thing where you can only interact with the human form of a shapeshifter. Looking forward to the next update!
Also a small tip from a dev perspective: the furry+gay tag combo has been the best performing source of downloads for all of my games. I don't know if that's a demographic you want to target, but I think there would be plenty of people interested in this game over there (especially if you make the bakeneko sprite a little more prominent on the cover). ;3
oh my god thank you so much, both for the compliment and the tips. I am all about my friendly neighborhood gay furries and I will absolutely implement those changes. I can't believe I overlooked that, thank you so so much.
How can Mori be so hot and yet so cute??! Gosh, I'm in love with his sprites. Especially the blushing one🥺💕💕 That bakeneko too… got me all hooked up 👀👌👌
The plot is interesting and it makes me curious to see the next love interests and their stories. Awesome job!🤗❤️
Very interesting game. It is definitely different and unique in its own way. If you are looking for a game with a good interactive story plot then I would highly recommend you try out this game! Well done!
A little different from the dating sims I usually play, but very engaging and gets straight into the action. 5/5 would bakeneko again. Can't wait to see what other chapters come out for this.

Really enjoyed the demo. Regarding the Mori EA is it a longer update of the public demo that is out on patreon?

I've never considered myself a furry, but fuck, now I'm having doubts.

Aaahhh! Yaaaaaaayyyyy!! Morriiiiiii!!
Loved this and canNOT wait to see more.
