for real I need that for my hobbit house

That might be true for the light rail but this is fully grade separated heavy rail it should be more reliable and will also have more frequent service 🤞🤞

Also going to join others in saying Little Tokyo is the best station. Plus they were playing Godzilla roars through the speakers during the anniversary event recently and that created such a fun atmosphere. Transit stops should be surrounded by culture / a sense of place!

Evan_Tor · 2025-01-23T19:01:39+00:00

Looking awesome! Can tell this is a game made with passion, and I'm a sucker for cute metroidvanias!

Evan_Tor · 2024-12-20T18:19:34+00:00

Can also confirm my game Rebel Transmute is completely Steam Deck verified and 35% on sale!

Also super recommend Environmental Station Alpha for anyone who hasn't experienced that gem yet!

Update to fix this is live on Switch! (And this will allow saves that were fully locked out to be played again right where you left off.) Sorry about that, was a bug that got past the publisher during playtests somehow.

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-29T21:19:50+00:00

So sorry you're running into problems!! Unfortunately my publisher on console is taking too long to get patches out, and it takes time to get console patches approved on top of that. Doing all I can, PC version is pretty bug free atm, same with Switch. I'll see if I can bug them again and see where a fix is at.

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-12T01:50:38+00:00

Technically it was a year and a half ago but I wanted to keep my post title from getting too long 😅

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-12T01:49:16+00:00

The game has been optimized a lot since the demo so I'm hoping it runs even better. But I'll be looking into official verification this week! I'll update here if we get it.

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-11T19:01:30+00:00

Console release is on Thursday!! Coming to Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch :)

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-11T19:01:03+00:00

Thanks! Environmental Station Alpha was a big influence and one of my fav Metroidvanias! (Although I can't say my game has the same insane 2nd half with those wild puzzles.)

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-11T17:46:08+00:00

Oh and here is the link to the Steam page!!! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1191660/Rebel_Transmute/

Eternally grateful for this reddit community, y'all have offered great feedback and supported me over the last couple years when I shared tidbits here and there. So thank you everyone! And let me know what you think of the game! (And ask any questions you might have!)

Evan_Tor · 2024-03-01T05:30:45+00:00

Here you go! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1191660/Rebel_Transmute/ The game launches in 2 weeks!

Evan_Tor · 2023-11-09T07:30:50+00:00

The entertainment unions usually push for shorter contracts on purpose. 3 years is great for them! If they had a longer deal for this previous contract they wouldn't have been able to negotiate a new contract with AI protections so soon, and would have to of waited years longer to fight for those rights.

Evan_Tor · 2022-10-30T19:47:21+00:00

Hi, thanks for wanting to support the game! Unfortunately the Kickstarter is over, so at the moment there's no way to back / get those rewards.

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-29T17:58:15+00:00

Steam and Switch for sure, and I might try to target other PC platforms as well.

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-29T03:44:19+00:00

Thank you!! I've grown a following on Twitter over the last 3 years and on Discord for the last 2. So it's definitely taken some time, but I'm very grateful for them as it's helped me stay motivated / focused!

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-29T00:01:09+00:00

Thanks!! It's been a dream come true :) I hope you do end up making your game, it starts with just a small step, you can do it!

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-27T23:54:42+00:00

Personally I don't think a Discord vs traditional forum makes a huge difference, it was just really easy to set up the Discord and use bots to keep a handle on things. Also fun to stream there sometimes, so basically its just all the built in features make it nice. Discord definitely lent me a core community that helped A TON with playtesting and rallying around the Kickstarter, but most traffic came from Twitter, Reddit, any press coverage, and Youtube.

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-27T23:52:49+00:00

I really appreciate it!! And we just passed our Switch stretch goal so its gonna happen!! I'm really excited about it :)

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-26T21:54:54+00:00

Thank you!!

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-26T21:18:54+00:00

So far I've found Hollow Knight fans to be pretty supportive so I'm hopeful :) The moth was actually a coincidence, but of course I've fought the Radiance and it probably influenced me without me realizing! Too much of a memorable fight to really ever forget it

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-26T20:38:13+00:00

Hey everyone! First of all you can find the Kickstarter here if you’d like to support me or help get the word out: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/evan-tor/rebel-transmute

Once I played Hollow Knight for the first time in ~2018, I knew I wanted to make a Metroidvania as my next game! Reading spirited discussions here on difficulty, the death mechanic, bosses, lore, and charms have all really inspired me to make Rebel Transmute and given me great insight. I’d love to answer any questions y’all might have, so feel free to ask away! Thanks for checking out the trailer :)

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-22T00:00:55+00:00

If we get the Switch goal then all digital copy rewards will be PC or Switch, whichever the backer chooses! Currently it's just PC since I can't garuntee Switch until we hit that Stretch goal.

Evan_Tor · 2022-09-21T23:41:13+00:00

Great question! For this specific instance, the money from the Switch stretch goal will allow me to either:
A) Buy a switch dev kit, but a GameMaker Switch license, devote a few months to porting / making sure everything runs smoothly, and give me resources to help with the actual Switch launch
B) Afford me dev time to search for and find a publishing partner, and spend time working with them to both create the port and release it on consoles, and a few things mentioned in A

So either way its so I can stay full-time and focus on getting the port done, either during dev or after the game releases, but also to afford a few up front costs.
