The game checks if the save exist, so if you see "Task Completed", the save should be there. The only thing I can think of is if the game file has been moved. The save correspond to the directory when you save the game. At least that's how it works on Windows.
Windows automatically flags files they don't recognize. Some have too little downloads. Or they did not pay microsoft their money yet for verification. Its just windows being very cautious at things it does not know. I have seen quite a few indie games get flagged.
Basically 1. Swap lane before battle start base on your judgement and matchup. 2. Feed them heart at any given time to activate useful monster's battle effect.
Fantastic renders and production. A fun game to play. The female protagonist game yes is my favorite (Tentacles Thrive) but it is very well done and keeps you engaged all the time ... If I had some cash to spend I would strongly support @Tentacles Thrive and hope he delivers more content to come
I don't know which OS or version you are using, as different environment has different path. But basically:
itch save location (Firefox): C:\Users\[user account name]\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\[RANDOM LETTERS]\commondatastorage.googleapis.com\itchio\upload2\game\[RANDOM LETTERS]
Local save location: First narrow down the scope by going to this directory. **(See how to unhid AppData folder if you have it hidden: https://cybertext.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/cant-see-the-appdata-folder/) C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\[Random Number]\localhost
And then search with the save's name: TTv4_Save.sol
This path should simulate where you store your exe or swf. For example, if the exe or swf is placed on your Desktop, TTv4_Save.sol should be inside a folder call Desktop. Also exe and swf saves aren't compatible with each other.
A new update is great and I've been excited to see what is added.
Also, does anyone know how to access the Queen's Nest? I looked on the wiki but it says to mature Slime eye and nothing else about it. Help is appreciated.
I have an IMPORTANT question: I want to download tentacles thrive for Mac but yeah its not downloading its just a piece of paper with I have no use for pls help pls I need it I played it on browser (still playing but in incognito mode not on purpose ofc and yeah data won't save please I need someones help pls)
so i was wondering how do i advance ? like all i've been able to do is go to the secret garden and bond with only 4 monsters in the garden and all i've been to discorver in the garden are 5 but the ones that could actually bond with were Butanga, Dubois, Moth and Slime eye and i couldn't bond with octoseal bc whenever im about to get the final scene for octoseal it freezes and goes to straight to "bonding" and skips all of the dialog and the end illustration and can't fully bond with octoseal and im aware that you can do battles and invade territories and bond with monsters outside of the secret garden but im not too sure how to do that either, pls help
Is it safe? It requires Flash so I'm scared, that I can get malware. Can you assure me, that this doesn't happen when I download it? I don't say that the game contains it, but can some other thing get to it and make bad things? I hope not :D
you can get some items when you have conquered a land and you choose a tentacle monster who will train there. For example you can get some meat that can be given to tentacles who are hungry through bonding.
First you have to injure your tentacle monster by for example the ones who are bad at scouting send them until they get injured. After that you should receive a skill to nurse/heal your tentacle and the next step is to build your royal army which you use for invading other surrounding territories.
I really wish there was a good guide to explain what monsters are best for beating each area, the only thing I really struggle with is the combat. I don't get what makes certain monsters attach to eachother and ugh, I like everything else but I just can not get this combat. Why has nobody made a guide to this? The wiki don't actually explain anything at all. It's really frustrating to have it be such a glaring black mark against what I consider an otherwise really fun game.
My original intent of making the game is to have simple, perverted fun, while having a more in depth gameplay (the battle) if people decide to indulge in it. The part is certainly more difficult than just breeding. It might more difficult than I intended^O^ There will still be more tools like expanding royal army slots that would help a bit in the future.
It is ridiculously hard. But I chalk a lot of that up to how none of the monster stats (class, type, etc) make any sense. That is why I was wishing someone had put together some kind of guide. I am struggling to understand why certain monsters get grouped with other, what is most effective against what, what monsters are best for invading what areas. It really feels like there is no actual methodology behind the combat and that really sucks because invading is probably the best part of the game.
How do you feed the tentacles when they are hungry? I have been searching for days for an answer and can't figure out how to feed them. I have so much food and yet there is nothing to do with it. Help?
Hey thank you for creating this absolutely amazing game; the contents are amazing! It's just one problem though, why did my max said that the downloaded file (.eve) is a microsoft window application and therefore can not be opened on mac?
hi can i ask , why i can't bond with monsters outside of garden , ... it seems i have to be able to bond with monsters in my army to level them up ... but ic an do that with limited number of them in my garden , in description it says i have to be able to bond with all monsters in army , but its seems impossible outside of garden
it would be cool if there where 2 bonding modes, one where there's just one looping animation (but still different every session) , and one where an animation plays matching the script the whole time.
Had the same issue. After you install the game thru itch's "install" button, - you need to manually launch the .exe without the itch inteface: just double click "Tentacles Thrive Alpha v4_07.exe" file in wherever folder it installed itself. Solved the issue for me.
The save file is called "TTv4_Save.sol" which should be in C:\Users\-user-\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\-random text-\localhost\-your itch.io install path-\Tentacles Thrive Alpha v4_07.exe\
You can check if its being created/updated when you save your game.

Hi, I've got a problem the game don't want to save, if I click on the save button it's just doesn't work
Hmmm, I will need a bit more details, at least like:
OS:
Format(web/exe/swf):
Exe and Swf the message "task complete" dont show, If I restart the game I have no backup
The game checks if the save exist, so if you see "Task Completed", the save should be there. The only thing I can think of is if the game file has been moved. The save correspond to the directory when you save the game. At least that's how it works on Windows.
I played the previous version it's worked, and then i played on the 4_08 nothing work the current and previous version
If the message "Task Complete" not showing, there is something preventing it to save. It could be firewall, or disk full. Otherwise I am not sure.
are the file safe
but why my pc detect its like virus????
Hmmm, do other games you download also trigger your aniti virus?
no
Windows automatically flags files they don't recognize. Some have too little downloads. Or they did not pay microsoft their money yet for verification.
Its just windows being very cautious at things it does not know. I have seen quite a few indie games get flagged.
How does Tentacles Thrive combat work?
Basically
1. Swap lane before battle start base on your judgement and matchup.
2. Feed them heart at any given time to activate useful monster's battle effect.
thank you. :)

Aww, thank you for the kind words~
Right now Lv20 offers nothing.
Do I have to feed my Monsters?
If yes how?
You can feed them through Bonding > Use Items. Using the right items could benefit sometimes.
Any plan to release android version....?
Possible, haven't yet explored Adobe Air yet, but it should be possible.
WOW!! i really love ur new monster design.. it's so cool!! i hope u will make some new species again.. :D
Hehe thank you noticing! It is a group effort though. We do tried to give newer species more attention as we only have a few species left we can do.
can someone explain in simple terms how to move my old save (v4.07) work for this version?

how can i make an army higher than 9? can't seem to get higher than 9 army cards and i get opponent as 12 to 14 cards
You can't currently. But I hear you, will focus on those.
A new update is great and I've been excited to see what is added.
Also, does anyone know how to access the Queen's Nest? I looked on the wiki but it says to mature Slime eye and nothing else about it. Help is appreciated.
take slime eye to lvl14
Hehe, thank you for waiting^O^
Can't wait for something resembling a half finished game, still a long way to go.

How do I save my game progress?
How to occupy territory?
After you capture so much, you just plain dont. Nothing will ever beat the monsters you get thrown against.
A really good game, but the save dosn't work for me... :/
that mean i must put the .exe in document folder?
other game like this too?
so i was wondering how do i advance ? like all i've been able to do is go to the secret garden and bond with only 4 monsters in the garden and all i've been to discorver in the garden are 5 but the ones that could actually bond with were Butanga, Dubois, Moth and Slime eye and i couldn't bond with octoseal bc whenever im about to get the final scene for octoseal it freezes and goes to straight to "bonding" and skips all of the dialog and the end illustration and can't fully bond with octoseal and im aware that you can do battles and invade territories and bond with monsters outside of the secret garden but im not too sure how to do that either, pls help

yeah it's safe
very save
Is this real or in sarcastic way?
what are hearts used for? (not the the ones used in battle)
u mean hearts in the secret memory?? after u reach 5 hearts u will unlock gallery/photo
how do you get gold/items?
you can get some items when you have conquered a land and you choose a tentacle monster who will train there. For example you can get some meat that can be given to tentacles who are hungry through bonding.
how do you get into battles?
First you have to injure your tentacle monster by for example the ones who are bad at scouting send them until they get injured. After that you should receive a skill to nurse/heal your tentacle and the next step is to build your royal army which you use for invading other surrounding territories.

when the final version will be released?

How do you feed the tentacles when they are hungry? I have been searching for days for an answer and can't figure out how to feed them. I have so much food and yet there is nothing to do with it. Help?
You can use Bonding > Use item
Brings up an empty parchment, doesn't let you select food to give.
Thank you for trying~
I am releasing a bug fixed version for Patreons soon, but newer content will be arriving somewhere next month.
How do you bond with tentacles that aren't from springmount???
i'm traggling with 'trian' skill task ... what i need to do .. i trained same monster in multiple territories and nothing .
me too,and when will the relase ones get back
for training, you gotta make sure the chosen monster has a habitat to live in the territory otherwise he wont bring back any items
How can I enter the human kingdom again or at least communcate with them.
Hi i like the game
When it will be in a complete state?
I think you should finish the game story and gameplay ,then add new monsters

anyone think that a copy where there are slimes instead of tentacles?
it would be cool if there where 2 bonding modes, one where there's just one looping animation (but still different every session) , and one where an animation plays matching the script the whole time.
does this game support those '4d' fleshlights/dildos?
