For anyone who wanted to have controller input this is your update!

I have tested things out, but I imagine there will be some issues. If you are willing to try it out and offer feedback before it goes to the default branch, you will need to enable the "Public_Testing" beta.

Go to "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Betas" and select "Public_Testing" from the drop-down menu.

There you will be able to rebind the keys to your controller sticks and buttons.

Note: The game requires the use of the "Enter" key and "Tab" at this time. Also, at this time if you are selecting a number in the inventory dialogue or other places, you will still need to type the number on your keyboard. I will address this in the next couple updates, before it goes to the default.

Also Note: You will need to restart the game to use this update. Trying to load an older save file will show you an error, and direct you to the manual.

With this news comes a new update for the Demo. We fixed some bugs and addressed some feedback from some early testers!

We're excited to share our game with you, and hope you have a good time playing it!

All of your progress in the Demo will be sync'd to Steam Cloud and carryforward to the full game.

If you have feedback or bugs to share, feel free to email us at support@sleepinggiantgames.com

Hey everyone!

It's time for Kingdom Crier #29!

We've expanded the Appearance Editor to include full editing of your Starting Mortals.

Click Edit to Customize a Mortal


The General Tab lets you edit a Mortal's Race (and Variant), Alignment, Kingdom Size Preference, Sexuality, and their Lexicon.

Evil: Check!
Sexuality Options respect the Settings you chose when starting your game.

On the Skills tab, you edit the Mortal's Skills.

Skills are edited using 3 point pools - one for current Skill, one for Potential, and another for Opinions.

You must take away from something to add to something else.

I've got to do something about this Guarding Skill!
Beyond the Skill Point Pool, Skills are capped at the Mortal's current Level.

The Opinions Tab gives you the ability to edit their Opinions of all Subjects.

I need to make some changes if we're going to make things out of Orcs!
There are options to grant Bonus Points to each of the Pools when you Customize your Difficulty.

Easy defaults to 5 Bonus Points in each of the pools while all other Difficulties default to none.

We've expanded the information available when choosing your Ruler to include detailed Compatibility breakdowns for the two Mortals who will join your Kingdom and for the Mortal who will not (the Outcast).

Use this to make a more informed decision and to drive your editing!

We've added a new Option to tone down the extremes of Mortal Visuals.

This defaults to 50% - reigning in some of the more crazy Mortal faces a bit.

I like my Orcs crazy... But maybe just like... A little less crazy.


In addition, we've tweaked the Eyes - most notably for the Orcs.

Restart the game and steam to make sure you're up to date!

Minor Updates like those above arrive on the Experimental Branch first.

If you have the stomach for brief bouts of instability and want to help us out - switch to (or stay in) the Experimental Beta on Steam and participate in discussions here or on discord.

v0.28 Saves will remain compatible until we launch the Beta for Feature Update #6 - some time from now.

Expect occasional issues - but know that we appreciate you helping us make the game better!

cypr' is always making stuff that looks cool..
especially this Epic Forge!

Total Rendition is envisioned as a First-Person RPG drawing on the immersive sim classics from around the year 2000. One with a very engaging and relevant subtext at that. Think of Deus Ex meets Millennium Trilogy in the Netherlands.

By bringing the early prototype of Total Rendition to Steam, we had hoped players would get excited in anticipation of the final result, being necessary for the investment needed to recruit a large team necessary to help Total Rendition attain gold status. Unfortunately, the opposite happened. Early Access made Total Rendition a sitting duck for (Neo-Nazi) trolls. Over the past year, we have witnessed an endless litany of trolling in the form of smear campaigns, review bombs, refund trolling, sealioning, etc. Investors could even be tempted to think narrative-driven single-player games are dead in general.

We are now discussing with Valve the possibility of suspending Total Rendition’s availability on Steam wholesale, until it has attained Gold Status, as to safeguard its reputation, and our own. I, for one, am quite incensed at this state of affairs. On the other hand, it showcases why Total Rendition premise is relevant. Hopefully, not too relevant as to render work impossible.

It does not mean that work on Total Rendition will stop, however. In my most recent Devlog entry, I have outlined my outlook on Total Rendition’s development and game development more generally. In the meantime, I advise not to buy Total Rendition, awaiting the outcome of our negotiations with Valve.
