Take a look at those mysterious new objects that will appear at your Estate - they will be unlocking a brand-new mechanic in the game.

What secrets do they hold? What new adventures await you? Start guessing and stay tuned for more hints in our upcoming teasers!

This is the first big update since the game is released. Thank you for buying, playing or just checking out the game. It really means a lot to me.

Having people play the game also means having more feedback. After listening to it I made some changes.

Let's dig into the update:

The first major change is the addition of the black dragon. It is like the regoular dragon, but it is a lot stronger. You can see some screenshots below. This is how it appears ingame.



Another dragon change is that they now target buildings and not the whole map. This will make the game a bit harder.

A very requested feature and complaint was that there was no option to invert the mouse control directions. It is now present in the ingame options menu.




Again, thank you for playing Our Dear Kingdom and checking out this update!

Patch releasing approximately 12.30 GMT January 16th, 2024.


Happy New Year, Champions! 

It’s 2024 and time for our first major update of the year. Who better then to help us see in the year of the dragon than the legendary swordmaster himself, Kwang!

That’s not all though, as we’ve got the usual bunch of important Hero and Item balance changes alongside a fresh collection of new skins in the store.

Thank you everyone who has played the Xmas update! We hope you got your Gold Shades and ready to hit the track.
Now as we are in the new year we want to cover that we have indeed logged every bug and are working as fast as we can to get a new patch build out in the next few days.

We have been tweeking the Lock n Lewd to be more clear as well as solve the many issues you all have been having with the system. The new back of the carts should give you all the direct ways to get the files needed to get the content. Also Naylas Castle is now on the Climax Bar as its been quite the headache to get to work.

Meanwhile our new Merch has kicked off this year! A Silvie Oil Mug and the First of the many cup posters. Both of these look so damn slick! I cant wait to get mine!

Also if you didnt see it Pix worked on a very very special photoshoot and gave us some exclusive photos to share to you Patreon peeps ;) See it all here: {LINK REMOVED}http://tinyurl.com/shadycornerstudio

Hello coaches, everyone. This is Asteroid Games Studio.


Our game, "Esport Godfather: Origin", has been released for two weeks. Thank you all for playing and helping us fix many bugs. During the time coaches have played, we've received numerous constructive suggestions and interesting ideas, all of which have greatly benefited us. We are delighted that everyone is discussing with us in about game.


After internal deliberation and discussion, we've decided to make some additions to the game based on the feedback received. However, due to limited resources, we regret to announce some sad news:


We've decided to delay the release of "Esport Godfather" originally scheduled for March 15th, to May 24th. Additionally, we'd like to provide a brief overview of the upcoming work:


Game Guidance:

We will optimize the current guidance mechanism and the game rule reference. By the way, the current game rule reference can be found in the bottom left corner of the battlefield interface, providing an overview of the current game mechanics.


Customization of Initial Team Members:

In the official version, we will offer a feature to customize initial athletes. You can build your own team, including character appearance and name, match trait, routine trait, the hero pool and on and on.


Custom Gameplay:

We have collected many suggestions and opinions regarding gameplay requirements, such as whether the Dragon fight can be ignored, the frequency of version changes, and concerns about the complexity of the upcoming equipment system. Understanding that everyone has their own preferences while playing games, we plan to implement customizable options for gameplay. This will allow you to customize certain aspects of game content and mechanics to improve experience.


MVP Selection Mechanism:

According to the communication with everyone, we found that many players have doubts and dissatisfaction with the MVP selection. We plan to optimize the MVP selection mechanism by adding two interfaces after each match. One interface will present MVP player ratings and commentator comments, while the other will add ratings for all athletes in the match.





To be honest, making this decision was not easy for us. We understand that the delay may disappoint, sadden, or even anger players. Considering the workload and time needed for these additions, we had to choose to delay. We are aware of the expectations for "Esport Godfather," and we also want to polish it into a more refined work. Therefore, we sincerely hope you accept our apology: Sorry, but we need to delay the release by two months.


We plan to update some content related to the League 2 during the Steam Next Fest, including version change, new heroes, the equipment system, and expanding hero pools. We expect to provide an update for "Esport Godfather: Origin" next weekend, along with optimizations to alleviate lag issues. We hope you have a try and provide feedback/bug reports. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.


Once again, thank you all for your support. We hope you can be patient and give us some time. We are committed to make an exciting present.
