Sorry for the late reply! I just realised thr link doesn't work when I tested it myself. Here's the song.

Hi, it'll be 12 chapters excluding the prologue and epilogue 😊 I'm currently working on Chapter 11 which should be completed this month then I'll start work on Chapter 12. There's still a lot of edits to complete but my aim is to complete everything for a late 2025 to early 2026 release.

Thank you so much for playing and I'm so happy you enjoyed it! I'm glad you're enjoying the range of emotions available and being able to hate on Salyra. Some of my favourite scenes to write are the angsty ones with her 😅

Zikar will be hurting for a while. The war has been affecting everyone differently and Part 4 is where you start to see how people are changing.

Irus is definitely a fan fave for a reason 😋

Thanks for playing!

The option is there for role-playing purposes. It does have consequences for Chapter 12 and it is mentioned again when you return to Ishari but no one is going to hold it against the MC because the Nomad Tribes and Ishari have been clashing against each other for years. If you follow Anu's path, you're there to gather information on their weaknesses, not to build an alliance. Wars can be won in more than one way – at this point, people don't have time to sit around and mope about failures/lost chances because of the battle that's coming. I hope that clears it up for you! Please note this is also a first draft. Some scenes are bare-bones right now and will be fleshed out during edits.

I'm glad you enjoyed Chapters 9 and 10! A lot of the scenes aren't fully fleshed out as yet. My main focus is getting the full game completed then I'll go back during edits to add more choices and flesh out certain scenes 😊 Thanks for the grammar/spelling issues! It's not my focus right now, as I'll fix them during edits but these are helpful!

Im so glad you enjoyed it! Some rescuing and final battles ensue so just two more chapters and the game will be done 😊

Thank you! Hopefully the full game will be out by the end of 2025 if all goes well 😊

Just over 24 hours to go 😊

I'm glad! I hope you enjoy the chapters 😊💖

It was a 99% vote in favour of allowing public access, so yes, very generous 😊

You're welcome! Just a few more days then you can access the new chapters 🎉💖

I really wanted to share the game with those who couldn't access Patreon, even if it's only for a short time and it'll be good to get feedback from outside Patreon since there's always been a lot of differing views from the public. I hope you enjoy the extra chapters while they're out 😊💖

Thank you! I hope you enjoy the new chapters 😊💖

Thank you so much! I'm so happy you're enjoying the game 💖

I do, but it's not set up as yet for the game.

Thank you so much for playing! I fell in love with Dena the moment I write that scene in the prologue then I instantly thought, gosh, wouldn't it be nice to smooch Dena so here we are 😆

Some good news on the horizon, the demo will be available for a limited time in December up until Chapter 10 so if you're tight on cash, you can always wait until 21 December.

Thank you! I'm so glad you found your way to the game and enjoyed it 💖

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I'm so happy you enjoyed what was available to play in the public demo. I'm already working on Chapter 11 out of 12, so hopefully the full game will be available in the next year or so.

I'm so pleased you enjoyed the writing! I've always enjoyed fantasy and political stories but I was afraid of writing my own, so this was a leap of faith for me. It helps that I love ancient history so research wasn't as boring as some might think. I think Irus has always been a fan favourite and he continues to be a fan favourite. I love him to bits so it's good to know you do too! And I'm happy you enjoyed the different personalities of the ROs.

Thank you again for playing and if you ever have any questions, comments or feedback, feel free to reach out here or through my Tumblr.

Thanks so much! The music is all from Pixabay 😊

Domestic bliss does sound tempting 👀😅 Maybe one day I'll make this a full game rather a few short scenes. Thank you for playing! 💖

Thank you! I've just completed the first draft of Chapter 10, so I'll say with edits, it'll be released by the end of 2025 or in early 2026. I don't know how much the full game will be until I finalise everything but it'll likely between $10 - $12.

Thank you! There won't be any further updates to the public demo. The game is still ongoing and the plan is to have it released on Steam 😊

Thank you! I'm you enjoyed it 😊

Thank you so much for playing and I'm glad you're enjoying the game 💖

Salyra disapproves the most of Irus and Elora as romance options for the MC just because she sees them as bad 😅 The Vinia family do reappear and make their views clear so you'll get to see that in the full game.

The game will eventually only be available on Steam so expect a post on that sooner to its completion. There will be twelve chapters in total, excluding the prologue and epilogue. Even if you can't join my Patreon, you can always follow my Tumblr for updates and more information.

It's okay. You don't have to try the game if the current art will bother you or keep you from wanting to play it 🌸

Art is already commissioned and has been changed in the Patreon demo and on my Tumblr main post. I'll only update the public demo and page once I put up the edited and revised demo before the game's release.

Thank you! Are these bugs or spelling/grammar errors? I'm not fixing those until edits - only game-breaking bugs for now 😊

You can add them here in the comments for me to take a look 😊

That's okay! Im really only tackling bugs/grammar fixes during the edits so feel free to send it again.

Thank you for playing and leaving a comment! Originally, only Irus and Elora were going to be ROs but then it spiralled out of control 😅 Anu is part of the main plot, so while her appearance is late, I wasn't going to add a female RO just to add another female RO. Hopefully Dena's extended scenes in the prologue makes up for it.

I don't think I'll be implementing a break-up system because of the amount of extra work it would take and it would mean more variations and scenes that don't affect the plot of the game. The game takes place over a few months and ends after the conclusion of the war so if you do choose to break up with someone, it'll come up in the epilogue but not before that. And since this is a stand-alone game, it's not going to play out in future plots.

Thank you again for giving the game a try! 🩷

You're welcome 💖 I'll be adding romance interactions with Dena and expanding the scenes from the prologue so hopefully the single life won't be too long or painful for your MC 😅

I still haven't decided if I'm going to add break-ups to the game because it requires extra flavour text and dialogue. At the moment, it'll probably be that only if you're single, you can be with Dena when you meet again so stay single for now 😅

Thank you so much! I'm glad there were relatable options for you since I mostly just wrote what I would have like to have chosen 😅

Unfortunately Malugos is very much fictional 😅 Thank you! Who knows, I might just end up developing a full-on romance game after Crown of Exile is complete.

Thank you! 😊

Thanks! There will be a route done for the bar and I might add Tilly and Shane routes since why not? 😅

Thanks! It's a jam entry, so it's currently complete. The idea is to have a longer version once I get the time.

Thank you! It'll just be Zell's route (the unfinished bar scenes) and then that will be it. I'll probably add a route for Shane and Tilly as well but the game isn't really about plot or going further than what's there 😅

Thank you! 😊 It's not anything serious, just some practice for writing and coding smut 😅 Hopefully I can work on this in my free time going forward so an update won't be too far away.
