The other announcement, highlighted in the picture, is that we've finished Phase Two of the illustration process! Now we'll move on to finishing every scene in the second chapter, though we'll still do new characters and a few other scenes just for fun.

Hope you enjoy!

I'm back with a new update for patrons! You can find it in the usual places, or read more at the blog:

TLS 0.56.0

- 1 new SFW scene, for a chapter interlude.

I've been working on OEA for a while (and it's still a priority), but I've finished a TLS update too! This is another open world one, and I feel quite good about it. Some of everything. ^-^

There's some brand new stuff, including new political events and new dungeons:



There's some old stuff, for example being able to finish a very long-running quest:



There's a series of challenge bosses that I put a ton of work into and I hope will inspire people to try some fun new party combinations:



And finally, Iris is getting her final harem quest:



This one should go public in a normal week, please look forward to it!

There's a new public update! This is an unusual sort of half-update, with a lot of new content but more fleshing out previous sections than breaking new ground. As such, I've listed the release notes in much greater detail than normal:
https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2021/01/tls-0553-release.html

Hope you enjoy!

New update is public!

TLS 0.55.0
- Open world update, including new income and research
- Brand new nation: Rodak
- Many new investments, most in the new nations, but also some scattered around.
- New content unlocked in Orgasmic Empire, and in Eustrin if you resolved its problems earlier.
- Eight new text scenes, including six for new harem members
- Fourteen (!) new illustrated scenes: Carina handjob, Dari blowjob, Dari 69, Ginasta bathing, Hilstara x Galvia, Iris + Megail, Janine cunnilingus, Megail + Hilstara, Robin titfuck, Sarai missionary, Varia chains, Wendis titfuck, Yarra x Fuani
- Over fifty (!!) new sex sprites! Every harem character now has at least one with Simon, and there are some other combinations as well.

So, this release... I think it's a pretty good broad update, with a ton of content of many different types. However, I think that it should be better. There were a few ideas I didn't implement, patrons made some good suggestions that weren't easy work, and there are some potential improvements that I have in mind.

Therefore, I think I'm going to break my usual pattern with this one and put out a version 0.55.3 later with expanded content. I feel this is better than trying to flesh that stuff out into its own update (it'd be too small) or put it off until version 0.56.0 (it'd over-extend the dev period). Hopefully this is the best way to maintain momentum and people enjoy the new content, which I'll try to list carefully so everyone can find it specifically.

Until then, enjoy! I don't intend to change the balance of current events, but new opportunities in the update might change what choices you make, so I'd suggest keeping an earlier save.

Completely unrelated: has anyone seen Crimson Gray show up anywhere lately? Recently it's started selling an unusually high number of copies and I can't figure out why. The analytics show direct navigation from Steam instead of outside links, but I wonder if a YouTuber or somebody covered it. I figure there must be some reason it's suddenly selling like a new game again.

I know what you animals all really want is investments and research, which are all over this update but hard to screenshot.



During my break I also took the time to add a lot of side content, including a bunch of new illustrated scenes and a ridiculous number of new animated sprites:



This update also introduces Fuckball, which I have been waiting to do since the very beginning of the game.



This one should go public in a normal week, please look forward to it!

New update is public!

TLS 0.54.0
- New segment finishing the Gathering
- 2 new scenes
- Equipment from dead orcs is now given back to you prior to the orc event.
- More healing for parties in between segments.
- New character bust art thanks to Lamsey.
- 4 new illustrated scenes: Aka x Tentacles, Carina + Qum, Iris Doggy, Balia Table

Unfortunately, there were new bugs and minor balance tweaks being done right up to today. I would like to be able to put this out and then take a break, but I'm apprehensive that some of these last second fixes may have caused new problems. If we need a version 0.54.3, I'll try to put it out reasonably promptly.

I feel like I just... poured everything into this one. I wanted to get to this point, since it resolves the previous cliffhanger and brings closure to a number of major arcs, but I'm courting burnout. I intend to take some time to do some writing, hopefully finish up Once Ever After, and generally take a little time for myself. There will be weekly updates on Patreon, as always, but there should be some updates here as well.

Version 0.54.0 is out for patrons! More info below or at the blog:
https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2020/10/tls-0540-released.html

- More healing for parties in between segments.
- New character bust art thanks to Lamsey.
- 4 new illustrated scenes: Aka x Tentacles, Carina + Qum, Iris Doggy, Balia Table

This episode is the culmination of many things, including both long-running arcs and callbacks from many updates past:


Though this one is shorter and more intense, there will still be some more events and competitions:


Which require very serious reactions:


I've pushed pretty hard to get to this point and I can't promise that the finished/polished version will be ready to go public in a week. Regardless, please look forward to it!

New update is public!

TLS 0.53.0
- Big new section covering the first half of the Gathering.
- 2 new scenes
- Added a notification after Chapter 1 to forestall potential confusion over illustrations.
- 9 new illustrated scenes: Comforting Simon, Janine's Wedding, Orcent Orgy, Robin BJ, Tertia TF, Uyae in Heat, Varia Standing, Varia TF, Wynn Binding

Time for the update! This one should be reasonably polished, but it needs to come with a warning: the balance for the entire Gathering is not finalized. Though I did my best, it's possible that after the next update, I or someone else will realize the game would be better with a tweak to this section. If you're highly concerned with game balance, I suggest keeping a save prior to this version.

That said, this one has quite a bit of different content I hope you will enjoy. ^-^ Though I want to continue working on Once Ever After, TLS 0.54.0 will be higher priority.

Version 0.53.0 is out for patrons! We're up to 45+ illustrated scenes, with more info below or at the blog:

Anyway, you know what it's time for this update!


The player's position in the world has really developed since the original Gathering back in Chapter 2. You'll have lots of groups pursuing various objectives:


There will be more competitive events, both mundane and magical:


And if it ever seems confusing, Qum is there to help explain:


I'm too tired to be sure when this one will go public, but I intend to roll directly into TLS 0.54.0 to finish the Gathering. Please look forward to it!

New update is public!

TLS 0.52.0
- New plot section.
- Fixed Robin profile thanks to Lamsey.
- New illustrated scenes: Lynine titfuck, Nalili 69, Orilise luxury, Fuckety Fuck

The update notes are small, but the update is an intense one that moves the plot forward! It includes character reunions, a multi-boss challenge, and four new illustrated scenes. Hope you enjoy!
