Hi! aww, I'm so happy you're excited to play the final version. I really appreciate your support. ♥♥♥ The game will be released on April 30th on Itch and Steam at the same time! You can read more about it on this post if you want. Thank you for your support, and if you'd like to wishlist the game on Steam, here's the link!

big hugs

I'm so happy you liked it! thank you for playing.

Please use "they/them" to refer to Mandra and Esma, cause they're both non-binary. :)

Hii! I'm so happy you like the story (and Mandra) so much ❤️❤️❤️✨ yeah, Mandra doesn't have their own romance route in the first game, but you can have a fling with them if you're playing on Mathias's friendship route. But they *will* be an RO on the next game, so yay! ;)) big hugs

aww, obrigadaaa! que mensagem mais linda i.i fiquei muito feliz aqui. 

Eu já tô trabalhando no segundo jogo da série, mas tenho alguns outros jogos lançados (não terminados) se quiser dar uma olhada. ❤️ abração!

Hi! thank you so much! i'm glad you enjoyed the game ^^

haha, that's so weird! I'd laugh too, don't worry xD I'm trying to replicate the bug with Kastian's sprite, but everything's normal here. Hopefully the problem with his sprite + the castle status was fixed with my last patch.

big hug!

Hello there! I'm so, so happy you enjoyed the game! Thank you for playing ❤️ 

The 5 routes are about the DC's personality + their relationship with Mathias: Seeker route, Destroyer route, Ruler route + friendship route + romance route (5 in total)

All the other questions will be answered with details in the next game ^^ but yeah, Filtchen and Yvana ran away, and the plot with Denraxale is a bit "foggy" on purpose, hehe. 

Also, please refer to Denraxale using "they/them" because they're non-binary.

hugs,

Ligia

hi! it'll cost $7.99 :)

hello there! thank you so much for playing! ♥ there's more detailed info in the post, but you can only access the export page after the credits screen. it'll appear automatically :)

Awnnn que mensagem mais lindaaa, muito obrigada! 😭😭😭 Fico muito, muito feliz de saber que vc gostou tanto assim. E comentários de BRs são sempre especiais pra mim, então muito obrigada por tirar um tempinho e escrever esse comentário lindo. Espero que vc goste dos meus próximos jogos também!!! ❤️✨

Hi! Aww, thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed the game so much. I love reading people's reactions. The full game will cost $7.90, and you can already wishlist it on Steam if you want! ❤️✨

Big hug!

Hi! aww, thank yooou so much! ♥ the art book won't be available on Steam for now, unless the game goes very well XD hahaha I explained more about this in this post if you're curious :))

Hi! You can see the difference between them in this post: https://ligianunes.itch.io/love-the-guard-be-the-king/devlog/1438673/play-the-fu...

I'm glad! There's more info in this post. you can only access the export page after the credits :)

Thank you! ^^ I just just pushed a new version; it should be up in a few minutes. Please let me know if it's working for you now!

Yay! I'm glad to know. Hope you have fun! 

big hugs

Thanks! I just pushed a new version with the fix, so it *should* work now. Can you update the game and test it to see if it works for you?

Thanks, you two! ♥ I just pushed a new version with the fix, so it *should* work now. Can you update the game and test it to see if it works for you?

I see. Thank you for letting me know! I'll investigate the issue and let you know when I release a fix ♥♥♥

Thanks! Can you tell me what you're trying to do when you got that?

There's a known error when trying to delete a file that was already deleted, as I explained in this post.

Hi! Thank you. I'm so glad you enjoyed the game so much! 

Please refer to Mandra using "they" because they're non-binary. :) 

Oooh, that scene has *a lot* of variations, haha! What happens in it depends on your character's personality and their relationship with Mand. Mandra only asks DC to say that when you're playing Mand's *friendship* route.

awwww ♥♥♥ thank you so so much! I'm sooo happy that you enjoyed it! *-*♥ and a massive thank you for the message you sent on tumblr too! I'll answer it in a few weeks, so it won't count as a spoiler anymore! hahaha ♥ big hug!

Hi! Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! Yes, I'm already working on the next game. I'll announce the release date in my devlogs over the next months ♥

wow! This is such high praise, thank you so, so much ♥ I hope you'll enjoy the next games in the series!

thank yoou! I hope you enjoy the update ♥♥♥

aww, thank yooou so much! ♥ the artbook won't be available on Steam for now, unless the game goes very well XD hahaha I explained more about this in this post if you're curious :))

Hi! Thank you so much. I'm so, so happy you're enjoying it! hahaha yeah, I can imagine how frustrating that would be! thank you for pointing that out. :)) I'll make sure to add that in the accessibility options in the next update ♥ Big hug!

Hello again! I just uploaded a new version. As far as I understood, you got that error because of a conflict in the Renpy version I used to export the previous build. I re-exported it to be sure, so it should be working now. Can you update the game and try, please? Let me know if it works ^^ ♥

Hello again. It should be fixed now. ^^ Please update your game and let me know if it works! ♥

Perfect. Thank you, Jessica! I think I already know what's causing the issue. I'll upload a new version over the next days to fix a few other bugs, and I *think* I'll be able to fix this one too. When I release it, I'll reply here to see if the game is working for you :) Big hug!

Thanks! As soon as I fix it, I'll upload a new build! ♥♥♥

Sorry to hear that! Please send me a screenshot or copy/paste the error here, and I'll take a look. ^^

hi :) I'd love to help, but I need more info first. If you can send me a screenshot or copy/paste the error here, I'll take a look... but as the game grew, I changed some parts of the code and added/modified variables, so there's a chance that your saves might not be compatible with the latest version...depending on when they were created, sorry :( If you need to start a new game, though, you can just hold the CTRL key to skip the text you've seen already, which should make the process a lot quicker hehe! ^^

Hello there :) I'm glad you're interested in the world building! There's *a little* about the continent and culture in the Art Book, including a map, but not much. The first game is supposed to be only a introduction to the world, focusing a lot more on the characters themselves. In the second game of the series, you'll see a lot more of Five Kingdoms and deal with its politics more directly. Big hug!

Aww thank you soo much for playing! I'm beyond happy you like LtGBtK so much ♥♥♥

And I'd *love* to see your fanart if you want to share it. Feel free to tag me on tumblr/bsky/to post it here if you wanna share! ♥

big hugs!

Awwwnnn this is so sweet, I loved it! ♥♥♥

hi :) that wasn't released yet, so you can only play it in the Supporters' build for now. It'll be released over the next months.

omg, this is so lovely, thank yoou!! ❤️❤️❤️ Mand looks gorgeousss *-* 

I have a post on tumblr here with the skin tones for Mand, Matt, and Mel, if you're curious! Mand's hair is a mousy brown, btw, a few shades lighter than their skin ^^ ❤️ one of the things I'll do in my edits is add more detailed descriptions of the babies as they show up in the story, hahaha!

biiig hugs

Hiiii! ♥♥♥ Aw, I'm so glad you like it! Thank you so much for playing.

Right now, you can't know in-game how many archetypes there are, but I'm playing with the idea of having something like "unlocked experiences" in the extras page. It'd be like an achievement page or something like that? haha! So that might help, more or less, with what you want. ^^ ♥ 

Aaaa, I'm so so happy you liked Val so much! I love her to death, so I'm always super excited to see people liking her too. Val has deep tan skin and dark brown hair. If you make a fanart of her, please please please show me, I'd looove to fangirl over it! haha ♥ I'm sending you lots of pencil-lifting energy! xD hahaha

About the extra story: it is because of the name, yes! Originally, that extra story was me trying to see how to bring players' choices from the first game into the second, so I programmed it differently. Now that I'm editing the game, and that I've found a *better* way to do that, I'll simplify the code in the extra story, so you won't have that problem anymore! ^^

Big hugs!
