As it is, the MC is weak. He doesn't deserve a harem and adding in a magical occurrence just fix the issue, isn't the right answer. "He just lost his wife" isn't cutting it. Even the sister thinks he's weak, so, this is a lifelong thing with him. He only became king because he was the male heir, not because he deserved it. Then add in the way he treated the servant girl, only proves that he's a weak and cruel man. If you add in a magical occurrence to that, he's only going to get worse. Like giving into a bratty child.The King seems like the worst kind of douchebag: A 'bicycle rider' - kicking those below him, while bowing like a spineless worm to those he can not quiet reach with his feet. Really hope we can influence that with choices later...
Imo it would be nice if he showed some strength and cunning before any potential 'magical' interference happens - outside of 'ordinary school boy gone chosen one'-settings, it's always cooler if a harem is 'earned' in some way, rather than being just granted by some supernatural mind bending force / godlike intervention and stuff like this. Else it always has that bitter taste of being just an impotent power-fantasy.
Still an interesting setting and much potential for the story to grow nicely. Neat models too, especially dig the unique and fitting look of the king. The (planned) tags will likely also 'speak' to enough people to get some interest going.
Welcome and good luck Machinist!

don't mean to be rude or anything like that (after all its your game and you should develop it how you seem fit) but its odd that the king would have to build a harem, back in the old days women would be lined around the castle to try to get into a king harem (be in a king harem or fight off a plague, famine, diseases, thieves, rapist, drunks and on top of that they would still need to pay the king taxes)...

My hope is that a magical transformation will make the King way less of a douche than he is now. How about a stand-up guy who doesn't torture people. rules wisely and gets to bang a bunch of church members and castle inhabitants (Elvira included).
I thought it was interesting and has some potential. Looking forward to see where it goes.
My thoughts, that only represent my opinion
1. The MC does appear weak in regards to his Sister, Mother, and this Priestess. Though that could be because he is a new king
and doesn't have much political currency yet, we don't know.
2. I hope we have some more control over how the MC acts and treats people. Having to play an asshole never really appealed to me, and he was pretty much an asshole to the maid. It's a fantasy game so the excuse that this is how medieval kings were is not that good.
3. Personally, I hope this doesn't become a sandbox game, I prefer VN. If it does, I hope there is not too much Grind. I'd rather see less content then to have to repeat content over and over just to move the plot along an inch.
To the DEV good luck, looking forward to where this one goes. Tell your story.

Ugh, 40 year old doormat weakling king, not a great start for an MC.

Not bad of a start, not sure how to feel about being a total douchebag from the beginning though, like burning down that maid's town and killing off her parents. then grabbing her tits right after haha.
History and other medieval genre shows that marrying off your daughters is a standard thing. I wonder if your going to that route aswell.

All right, first of all, thanks everyone for playing. My idea with this prologue was to show what the player can expect in terms of the fantasy setting, art quality and lewd animations, so if things feel rushed, I apologize, but I really wanted to have a sex scene to see how everything would play out. From now on things will develop with more consistency.
Beware, long post ahead.

And yeah, I can only do so much with the assets I have, so my lack of artistic ability and history knowledge will make this a challenge.

I read that people used ceramic way before the 15th century, but didn't find anything about ceramic bathubes, so you are probably right (You can always think it's iron painted white

Thanks, I didn't think people would enjoy the "Religion" (it's more of a cult), but I may give the player the choice of embrace it or extiguish it.
I hate grinding as well, and when a game goes sandbox it usually has a lot of grind. I won't put any in my game.Seems a pretty good start, hope there's no sadbox and grinding..
He became a king because he's the oldest male sibling, not based on merit. Also I don't want him to start the game being great at what he does, because there wouldnt be character development. I want the player to see how much he improves.
You are correct, but wouldnt be very fun if he already have everything. I want him to work for it
.I hope the player will see how much he develops on the course of the game.
Originally she was a lot shorter, so when I adjusted her I didn't notice it would look this weird
It's not that he's not great at what he does, but he's nothing like the most generic King should be aside from being a bit of an asshole. Character development in a case of a 35+ man isn't the same as with a teenager, who's a complete useless pushover idiot and gets better in one way or another, that's a huge misconception.

It’s just the most basic of prologues so far and there’s nothing by way of choice. But the concept is intriguing enough and I’m a sucker for GoT style courtly intrigue. The various family members and courtiers circling the king are visually interesting at the very least.
Right now I’m on wait and see mode, but perhaps this has the potential to be very much my kind of game.

A king aye? hope there will be some challenges here about resource/army management... as well as time management with his future concubines, I think...
guard> m'lord! our border patrols are being impaled as we speak. your presence at the war council is required immediately!

when I saw the Title, I half expected that by some curse or magic you end up "The New Queen" "wink". LOL.Even if it means marrying Hellboy's big sister.
