FAQ

My game isn't working, or is slow. Help?

Please look here.

Can I use my existing save game from Github or Kongregate?

Yes! You will be able to import your saved game from Github or Kongregate and continue where you left off on the Steam version.

I imported my save but haven't gotten Steam achievements?

Go to the Achievements page in Trimps and hit the Sync Achievements with Steam button.

Why aren't my achievements being awarded in Steam?

Until the "Steam is learning about this game" text goes away on the Trimps Store page, the game is limited to 100 achievements on Steam. Because of this, currently there are only Steam achievements for the 'Feats' category of Trimps achievements. As soon as Steam lifts this cap, the rest of the achievements will be added to Steam!

I use a custom addon for Trimps. Can I use it with the Steam version?

Yes, if you use addons, it is possible to install the same addons you use on the web in the Steam version of the game. Follow the instructions of the addon's developer on how to do that.

Linux/MacOS version?

There are currently no plans for MacOS. Linux *might* happen but nothing is set in stone yet. A lot of it is going to depend on how well the game does, and who knows what the future may bring.

I can't find my old save. Can I recover it somehow?

Check in all of those places:
https://trimps.github.io/
http://trimps.github.io/
https://grimy.github.io/perks.html (click the "get it back" text)

I bought bones on Steam before. Now I've started over/imported an old save, can I get the bones back?

You certainly can! All you have to do is open up the Bone Trader on your new save, click the green "Get Some More Bones" button at the top, then click "Sync Bones with Steam" at the bottom left. This will instantly unlock any bones you've purchased on your Steam account before!

Is the game still being updated?

Yes! You can see a changelog with dates by clicking the What's New button in-game in the bottom-most right side, here is a quick link to it: Changelog[trimps.github.io] (Beware, as it is full of spoilers!). More updates will most certainly be coming in the future :)

Can I use Playfab on Steam, similar to how it is on the web version?

The Steam version of Trimps will keep your save nice and snuggly on your Steam account in the Steam Cloud. I believe there are no plans at the current time for an additional Playfab integration. Playfab has gotten seriously expensive over time and incurs pretty significant costs, whereas Steam Cloud is offered to us at no additional cost and serves the same purpose, with the only caveat being that you cannot effortlessly switch between Steam and Web using Playfab. There have been quite a few people asking however so we might think about it some more, but I make no promises at this time.

Can I have multiple saves in the Steam version?

You can use the Export/Import feature to export saves to a file on your computer, and use that to store as many games as you would like on your computer. You can also use the web version of Trimps to simultaneously play on another save file at the same time.

Can I make the game fullscreen?

Yup, you can toggle fullscreen with F11! See a full list of keys in the hotkeys menu by going to Settings -> Hotkeys or by pressing the K key in-game.

Note

I am still building this FAQ, if you have a question about the game, feel free to ask and I will add it to the list of questions.

Will you be able to use autotrimps with steam version?

[Gra̶bz]

Yes, you will - in fact some versions already support it

[ToxicAntidote]

I can't decide whether I want to load my existing save (which I've not played for a couple of years, but is at around zone 750), or just go for a fresh run?
I do enjoy the feeling of constantly making progress that a fresh run would provide.

[Gra̶bz]

You can always backup your existing save and start anew, then go back to your old save once you feel content, or continue on your new save :)

[ToxicAntidote]

Will there be a system for multiple save files in the Steam version? If so, It would be even easier to both keep the old save and have a new one going.

I'll probably start a fresh save, and if needed I can always open up a browser tab if I want to play with the old one.

macOS version when?

[Gene]

Just gonna drop this here for if people come here before clicking the Achieves tab (like I did):
For your steam achievements you click the Achieves tab in game, then click sync achievements with steam.

There are no plans currently. Linux is possible but nothing is set in stone yet.

Is there a way to recognise Kongs premium currency i put into the game for the steam version?
Dont make me pay for it again.... I'll do it!

[Gra̶bz]

When you buy bones on Steam, you receive them in form of a Steam Inventory item. This item will stay on your account indefinitely. Unfortunately, we have no way to manually give users Steam Inventory items, so to give you back your Kongregate bones, we have to do it the old fashioned way.

If you bought bones on Kongregate before, and now you're starting a new save, ask about it on Discord and I'll get back to you with what can be done. We can fill your new save with the bones you purchased on Kongregate in the past. You may have to join our Discord at https://discord.gg/trimps before we can be messaged.

Hey there, any plan on implementing the playfab part of saving system? Just asking :P surely can import manually rn Glad to see it on steam.

[Tchey]

I’d like a native Linux version, but in the meantime, it runs well so far via Proton.

Will a fullscreen be added in the future?

[Gra̶bz]

You can toggle fullscreen with F11!
Check out the hotkeys menu by going in Settings -> Hotkeys or by pressing the K key.
