Royal Order

Release date (Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Steam) English: March 29th, 2024

"The Sval, pirates of the utmost north, are wreaking havoc all over the continent of Igrith.

Vowing to bring an end to their endless plundering, three kingdoms send forth their royal heirs to the High Council, a powerful and influential faction of magicians, to plead for their help during this time of crisis.

The High Council oblige, creating the Royal Order, and the heirs remain; however, political tensions are high as old grudges resurface between the three kingdoms. And, as the pirates continue to have their way, they are determinedly bound to reach their breaking point.

Play as Aarya, the newest member of the High Council, and help manage the Royal Order.

Can you put an end to the Sval’s pillaging while keeping the kingdoms at peace? Or will you bring nothing but war upon them?

This game is an indirect sequel to 'Royal Alchemist'. The story takes place in the same world, but follows a different cast. Both games can be played separately from each other."

This is a commercial game by Nifty Visuals! You can buy it or download the demo from Steam here, or from itch.io here.

I just realized something about my childhood.

My dad, coming home from work: Why is your backpack still on the stairs and not in your room, where it belongs?

Me: uuuh, forgot about it.

My dad, predominantly autistic: You just have to establish a routine, then this doesn't happen! Look, when I come home, I put my shoes here and take my backpack there and I always do it in this order and then nothing can go wrong!

Me, 12 years old, predominantly ADHD and unmedicated: *blinks in confused silence because I don't even have the words to explain how much I can't just do that*

Min maxing in Disco Elysium is really fun because A) Thoughts really add depth to the calculations you need to do in order to get your build right, B) you can really shape the narrative of your Harry DuBois, C) it's just. So funny. You drink yourself half to death and now you're a genius eagle-eyed kung-fu empath. You might break down in tears rambling about Contact Mike, but you dodged a bullet and reconstructed an entire ballistic trajectory with essentially no evidence.

I love fallen london it's so good i started three days ago and i'm so hooked. but there are so many stories like it's hard to choose a goal. at this point i think my character is as confused as i am and walks half intoxicated on prisoner's honey, poems in hand, and sometimes pickpockets some cop before getting involved in a brawl at the local tavern. She wakes up from a nightmare of frozen blood buildings, shrugs and goes drink whisky with a devil

Hello!! I saw your post about the game you're making - it sounded fascinating, and out of curiousity about a genre I don't know much about I got into a visual novel/dating sim related rabbit hole.

If you don't mind my asking, do you have any recommendations? VN or datesims or both! or any adjacents too.

(thank you, and good luck with the game!!)

YIPPEE!!!

i'm a huge fan of it gets so lonely here because it does a lot of cool things with the narration and multiple playthroughs. her tears were my light does similar things with the multiple playthrough thing and it was the first visual novel to really open my eyes to what the genre could be like! and because apparently today is horror yuri day i will add liar liar and liar liar 2. the artstyle is very cute! and there's blood!

for less horror yuri and more dating sim, i am currently completely obsessed with tokimeki memorial girls side 1-3, the dating sim/visual novel/stat-raising hybrid that inspired a lot of otome games—— and for good reason, too, because it's JUST THAT GOOD. i almost exploded something trying to play the fourth game but i will not let that stop me

in pure visual novel, i have to recommend heartbaked, it was one of those games i played in my free visual novel frenzy when i was younger and it really stuck with me! i still think about the radley ending.

i adore adore adore pacthesis games and i would love to direct you to my number one favourite and inspiration, number days sim date, because the intertwining of plot and romance and friendship was wonderful. xolga and mr toko is more point and click but check those out too

i love you was REALLY GOOD and i adored it. if you want proactive women and blushing boys this is the game for you! kill them with blushing right now

senpai please look at me was good!!! i love it! absolutely worth sticking around for all the bonuses! very short and sweet and you will love it

sweetest valentine is a game. in a genre called :). if you don't know what :) means don't worry about it!

play yuki 4p for lesbians and its sequel, scheme, for even more dumb lesbians. i am absolutely begging you to click those links because the names are too long for me to type out and i don't know if googling lesbians scheme will bring you to the masterpiece properly

hermes and gry is REALLY FUNNY but also one of those games that opened my mind to how complex the ren'py system could be. you made a map, a constantly-updated journal, an inventory, and the best damn ending ever? i was screaming when all my evil schemes came together. absolutely 10/10 worth it if the creator wants my liver i'd hand it over

hot coffee is SO SO SO good that i ended up reaching out to the creator just to praise it so much please play it please i'm on my knees please

speaking of games i am begging you to play

absolutely play i want to pursue the mean side character and my sweet zombie!!!! tsun is a great artist and the stories are good and you have to have to have to have to play okay!!! tsun is also making i just want to be single which is so so so cool the game of the year every year and it hasn't been released yet and you need to become. a fan okay because aro pride is right now

[bmpmp3]

and the thing is i feel so very strongly that there is a difference between a route-structured romance visual novel and a dating simulator but thats literally the least important thing on earth to feel strongly about. but i do.
