Overview:
You play the role of Sir Patrik of Akros, a charismatic, handsome and middle aged (for the times) Knight that set by bonds of loyalty and family to the new Countess of Kathia, is bound to gather the fealty of the vassals of his liege, cajole with the outer counts, and overthrow the Duke of Luvia. It will not be only a path of conflict, choices of whom to trust and whom to make a head short, but will let the player enjoy the power fantasy of the Middle Ages, using the lesser and being used by the higher, both for power and for pleasure. In your treacherous journey among medieval politics, nothing will stop you from romancing and lay with any woman that is put in your way, for lust, love or political interest. Not only nothing stops you: Is part of your mission.​

Changelog:
0.19.f Engine Update:
It is only an Unity Engine update before coding starts on 0.20. New players should play this version in order to find problems with the engine before 0.20 release. One performance improvement included is Autosaving and Saving using a separate CPU thread in order to not lag the game.


0.19.e Hot Fix:
-One scene not triggering depending on certain choices.
-Some graphic issues

Other Changes:

Akros Manor:

0.19.d1
Game Engine Changes:
-Vram fixes to allow Hartlepool, Pirate Cove & Remember Scenes to be playable on older graphics cards.
-Integration of new video-based animations instead of unity-frame animations (This have four effects, integration of more specific sounds for every animation, lower vram consumption, lower HD space consumption, and as I replace older animation with videos, lower general vram consumption for all the game, as well as longer frame animations on the animations yet to be remastered).
-Big UI reshape, closer to the final looks of the game. Also with the start of the Tooltip system. Now options will show a tooltip explaining what they do, but only a few are active right now (testing). New Romance Menu and Camp Hub worked on but not included yet for various reasons (Like release speed, will be active on 0.20).

Story Content:
20+ new long frame animations
200+ new stills
600+ new dialogue lines

-An Alternative Reality story based on some weeks before the arrival of Sir Patrik to Hartlepool about an old friend of us.
-A new ingame (hidden) quest with choices, conflict, with two new girls fun.
-The Old Tower conclusions.
It is a small update on content but longer than other small updates and fun-content packed.

Bugs/Fixes:
0.19.b3 Updated:
Problems on some saves not allowing a quest start.
0.19d1 Updated:
-Some fix on the new UI
-Some scene not been able to be repeated
-Added Journal entries

-Added the Credits menu (but is still a bit WIP)
-Fixed Stats menus not showing more than 500 stat points.
-Added the Titles bar (still a bit WIP)
-Now the Stats menu will show the one-time Path Choices, but this will make sense when the Romance menu is reworked, so the player will be able to track where that choices lead to (but low on spoilers). Expect the new Romance menu to start appearing progressively in 0.13p2.

-Custom Save Game Names and 50 slots
-Two new options about Auto-Restore regular game speed: Restore speed after conversations and Never Restore Speed.
-Romance menu will not be updated in this update (the new girls aren’t there, but stats keep growing) as I’ll overhaul the menu into a Romance unlocks/achievement nice system. (it will keept the numbers too). As I’m deprecrating the system, I’ll give some tips to not lost any content in the end of the changelog.

Fast Tips to get all new content more hard to see:
(How to start) -> (what’s the final part of the content by 013p1a)


-Main Story: (Ask people at hartlepool. If lost check journal/quest tracker, but basically one advances talking either with Belinda, Sir Dupre or Anibal) - > (Meanwhile at trivor II)
-In Akros Manor, (go sleep at bed to get new events). -> (See Hannah event).

Recommended Manual Save Points:

1. After asking everyone about the Canary Trail and before talking to Belinda about it.
2. After the events, saving before talking to Anibal.

.b,c,d Releases Changelog:

-Added additional expected content.
-Additional bug fixes.
-Some typos fixes.

Important Note: I left the cheat button hidden around by mistake. if you use It will break the game unless you are near the end of all content, and don't save the game if you use it because it will break your save for future content. Better tip, just don't use the button :p
0.12d
(This is not a "content update" of any kind, just the release of the ingame commission and the game engine improvement)

-Added the Duke Tier January-February Scene Commission to the Unlocks menu. Is the first on Alternate Realities scenes (that means that that scene may or may not really exist in the canon of the game, character personalities may be different, or other implausible events.) For now is automatically unlocked to everyone, but maybe in the future I make it unlockable during gameplay.

Game Engine: -Now Dialogue Boxes can be hidden with H key! Game can advance while keeping the text hidden by normal click-thru, so press H again to unhide the boxes.

Fixes: Some typos.

---------------------------------------------------
First Public Release 0.10c
---------------------------------------------------

Developer Notes:
0. Check the Quest Tracker and Romance Menu to know that you've seen all available content! There may be more stuff a bit hidden, tho... (The Romance menu is being deprecated for a new system but works for the 90% of the game).

Small FAQ:

1. For those who want to know before hand , playtime (mainstory, side stories, and side minor romances) is more than 12 hours for a single gameplay. (as 0.15). (It has multiple branching paths of higher or lesser consequences, also different options to take about the war management part of the game that doesn't have still an impact until Chapter 3). The important choices present in Chapter One are not branching the end of the game, but the way you go to there)

About game engine:

1-The game includes two fast modes and a hands free mode, they are welcomed due replayability. More text speed options are added, too.

2-Prologue is linear and a bit lengthy, but is the prologue for all of the future game so it need to be. Game autosaves and let you manually in some points of it tho.. Beyond the Prologue, you are in "freeroam mode" and you will always have lots of chances to save, and non-important cutscenes are not long.

Some tips about what type of game is:
1-In public posts in the patreon there are various little first in-depths of focuses of the game, good reading for knowing about the mechanics of the game.

2-The Long intro plus prologue may give the sensation that you're in front of a linear VN, but is just setting well the tone and diverse aspects of the story and the Main character. This is not a VN, is a game more akin to a graphic adventure in gameplay or even a RPG., but with familiar elements of some freeroam VNs.
Do not expect to know the outcome that your choices will have 10 hours later the first time you play. Do not expect to understand all the systems and mechanics the first time you play. Just play and enjoy, if you're in for the girls they're not usually locked away behind choices. I do not recommend following a walktru the first time you play, you can find your way just reading the game, journals, and quest tracker with ease.

3-"Main romantic interests", or Romantic Interest in specific woman, appears progressively along chapter two. They are not the goal of the game, but they will be worked stories that can help some paths of achieving other goals. As an additional note, You may see in the Romances Panel faded icons of pregnancy and marriage, those are not to be considered specially there for "kinks" or "goals", but more as story progression mechanics.

4- I love, love to render sex, so the game is full and will be full of it, even if is not the main goal of the game. (there are already between 200 and 300 sex animations)

Recommended System Specifications:
I put this little recomendations for those who have problems:

Game has a Frame Cap set to 90 that should make the game not go crazy on very new nor old systems).

CPU: i3-i5 should go fine. For me it barely uses 20% of an i5 old CPU.
Having problems? Close other programs, Windows leechers like Superfecth, Live windows defender protection, etc).
When loading levels it can peek to max CPU use for some seconds; If you're multitasking and clicking on the game at the same time, and maybe using Fast Speed Modes, it could be a reason for a crash.
RAM: 2gb of free RAM
(Having issues? close google tabs etc. Some google tabs can eat 4 gb of RAM easy, so if you only have 8GB or something like that thing about it)
Graphic Cards: From 2 to 6 gb (right now) of VRAM (graphic cards).
Having problems? Close other hardware accelerated programs while running the game.
I know "up to 5 gb of VRAM" sounds like a lot, but sorry, it's my first long game and I've make errors planning how it works. Right now as 0.15 I know where the problem is and I'll fix it.

This looks like my jam. Definitely something that catches my interest (management/rpg). I'll wait a few iterations to give it a proper try. I also like that some of the women looks a little goofy. They are not merely redresses of the same ol'. I kind of hope for some gilf/mature content... I know it's not to everyone's taste and I don't expect there to be in this game or in the future, but a boy can hope.
