In Cellular Shift, a sci-fi/romance/crime Visual Novel filled with nudity, sex, drama, and humor, you play as Riley Weston, a young man who tries an experimental serum developed by his friend Jill, and inadvertently ends up turning into a girl. Riley and his friends quickly begin to accept the change, but little do they know, there are strange, nefarious forces at work in the shadows, and events already set in motion that none of them could've predicted, including a mysterious scientist and her loyal right-hand with twisted motives that threaten more than just Riley's life...
*WARNING* This games deals with themes that some may find uncomfortable or unsettling, such as kidnapping, blackmail, violence, and other potentially upsetting themes.
Version 0.6.6 is now available to public!
*Note: Feedback/error reports are always apprecitated, but in order to fix typos and the like, it helps to know where they are/what was being said. The more info the better.
*Note: MC can become Futa starting on Day 10 in-game.
*All "rape"-type scenes are now skippable or avoidable.
*Redesigned characters begin partway through Chapter 6: Part One
A note from the developer: The idea behind the initial transformation from male to female, is that it is meant to be the missing piece in the MC's life, or at least part of it. The female version of yourself was the person you were meant to be, it just happens in a, shall we say, "unconventional" way. As far as any attraction to males, this can be written off as mere curiosity, and then basically ignored for the remainder of the game, or you can embrace it, and say the desire was deep within all along. That's the beauty of the choice.

*You are made to pick a romance target early, but I am planning harem options for future updates.
*Futa content is avoidable, but the Futa characters are still fairly prevalent in the story.*
*Game currently contains two female characters who become futas; their h-scenes are skippable/censorable, but the characters are still fairly prominent.
*All "rape"-type scenes are now skippable/avoidable, depending
*Contains scenes of brief graphic violence (not sexual)
You start off with the option to end up with one of three characters, with more options to come down the road:
There's Jill, your cute, glasses-wearing genius/scientist friend (who you've had a crush on for a while), who gives you an experimental serum intended for pain, which ends up triggering the transformation. A bit of an oddball, but she really cares about you.
Raven, an athletic girl who goes to your college, and has more than a bit of a wild side. After a couple of encounters, you begin to become friends with her, with the possibility for more. She's very open, and blunt, but has a heart of gold.
Max, your goofy best friend since a young age. He's a handsome young man about your age, who's always been there for you throughout the years. You never had feelings for him before as a guy, but with the transformation, something has changed...
More options with other characters are starting to become available!
CHANGELOG 0.6.5
Story: - Over 800 new images, and two new in-game days, Day 14 & 15, 15 is closer to a 3/4 of a day
- Finishes off Chapter 6
- Introduction of new "pheromone" ability, that will give options for extra bits in scenes. Thusfar, the only chance to use it is with Max, but there will be more in the future, depending on character personalities
Visuals: - As previously mentioned, this update introduces new visuals with new character models. They're the same characters you know and love, but they look a bit different. *(Not all characters have a place in this section of the story, so their new models will have to wait to make their official debut)*
Technical: - Added reminder at the beginning, and after MC changes her I.D. about your ability to change your name at any time in the menu
- Added flavour choice before initial kidnapping on Day 7 to attempt to call the police, which fails if you pick this option
*See below for list of H-scenes

New Scenes:
- During visit with Mother, MC and choice between Ava & Lia, or Derek *(Old Models)
- MC and Max, Full scene in his bedroom, option for extra with new Pheromone ability *(New Models)
- Optional topless scene with MC, Jill & Lily *(New Models)
- MC and Clara, Full scene *(New Models)
Story:
*The game is now divided into Chapters, and has intro text to mark the beginning of each new Chapter and each new Day. This version will cover the first part of Chapter 6.
*This update contains one new full day, similar to the last update. Along with further progression, there will be a couple of new characters introduced in this update which I won't spoil here, as well as a few new scenes, includiing a new Breast Expansion bit.
*Though the story and everything is still the same, some early dialogue has been tweaked. - Jill shows more concern when initially meeting you in your room on Day 2, instead of being goofy about it so quick.
- Emmett is less antagonistic when you first meet him, playing more to his calm coldness later on.
- Before going out to the Cafe initially, MC is slightly less "excited" about going out, but still deems it a good way to try and take her mind off things.
- The first romance choice has a better explaination about future possibilities with love interests.
- It now takes slightly longer to reveal the name "Mr. Shadow".
- This may have been in the last update, but the first mention of Clara now occurs on Day 1.
Technical Changes:
*This version is introducing a new feature that a lot of people will likely appreciate, which of course is re-naming Riley. I've been able to make it so you should not have to start a new game to use this feature, simply change the name in your preferences (if you do this, and then roll back, it will reset the change).
* More early renders have been re-done, mostly from Day 3 and some from 4 (floating hands, sinking/merging limbs, etc). Also fixed a couple from Day 1, where male MC's thumbs are sinking into his coat.
*New scenes involving characters being wet contain enhanced wetness effects.
*Saves from early days should be alright to load, if needed.
That pretty much covers the new changes in-game for this version. If you would like to see the new scenes, scroll down below. Once again, I would like to appologize for how long this update has taken, but I want things to be better going forward. The last few months have been very up and down for me, but I hope you can forgive me, and look forward to more updates. I may continue releasing partial chapters to get content out more often.
There is no specific number of chapters planned, it will simply be as many as I feel are needed. What I can tell you is, as of right now, Cellular Shift is still quite a ways from being finished. I'm sure most people have realized this by now, but Cellular Shift's story is a bit of a slow-burner, and will continue to be so as it continues to develop in new ways.

Again, hopefully won't be an issue, but please let me know if you experience anything.
*0.4.1 adds a small bit of scripting code to help keep track of moral choices

v0.1
First version.
Honestly the game was great up until the new "upgraded" character models, only found one game breaking error till then and very minimal spelling/grammar errors. But the new character visuals are such a turn off I can't really recommend playing any of the new scenes, they all went from sleek looking and very professional looking with realistic body proportions to imo a overall ugly faces, gaudy style and insane proportions. Overall I was quite disappointed when I saw the new stuff especially since the story is reasonably compelling and there's a plethora of choices. So yeah, I wouldn't recommend unless it gets switched back to the previous style visuals.
The game is truly a treasure, and I recommend a download if you like M2F. You can chose if you want it kinky or classy, MF or FF. I have no clue why it has so few likes, the amount of content is massive compared to other Penpy games on this site, the writing is good and it is well paced.
i love this game and the new pheramone ability has possibilities, but in my opinion the old visuals are vastly superior
Cellular Shift 0.5.1
DOWNLOAD this amazing game and play it! Then hit the LIKE button.
This VN is easily one of the best story-driven games on this site.
It's early, but it has a lot of potential for the future. You already mentioend futa content, having that might turn this game from a simple love/myster/sex game into something with a lot of comedy and has potential avenues that feed off of that: pregnancy, fetishes, embarrassing situations etc.
The artwork grew on me, it's a little rough at times but it's also not so bad. I'd love some more definition to the bodies in the form of hair and aeriola but that's alright down the road. I like 3d renders more, but this is one of the better designed 2d art games on here. Congratulations, you did a great job.
