- Politics rebalance and bug fixes update - 22 June 2022
Hello, fellow Kings and Queens! In this update the following things changed: Political relationship change check no longer occurs when clicking on select buttons (left, middle, right), but can still change every 15 seconds Increased the amount of the initial relations changes with countries (depending on the player's choices before the appearance of politics) The effects of active actions in Politics menu have been increased (gifting resources to other countries, attacking other countries and sabotage is now more effective). So now it is easier to influence other countries. Increased the amount of army received by other countries every day from random(0.1) to random(0.2). Now countries will gradually become a bit stronger themselves to counteract player's growth. Every day now not only the army of countries will change, but also their attitude towards the player - random (-3,3). Thus, e…
- Trading Cards, Badges, Backgrounds and Improvements have arrived, sire! - 11 May 2022
Kings and Queens, Lords and Ladies! You've waited for it - we gave it to ya'! New KingSim update is now live: with trading cards to collect, badges to craft, backgrounds to seize, emoticons and stickers to gather. But that's not all! Come closer, come closer to hear the tale of this new update: BUGS FIXED: Overall around 50+ different small bugs and glitches are patched, My Lord. Some of the fixes are listed below... Some of the achievements were bugged and harder to get than anticipated (thought all of the achievements in are are currently owned by at least 1 person). The glitches has been worked around and now all achievements should be unlockable by a persistent gamer. Sometimes politics was buggy and all of the countries simalteneously hated the player. Now this should not happen (at least so often ːsteammockingː ). Sometimes the players settings of sound volume and fullscreen mode…
- Bug fixing update 03.09.2021 - 3 September 2021
Hello, fellow Kings and Queens! I've heard your cries and shouts and spend some time fixing all of the bugs you've carefully gathered and transmitted to me. Thank you for your help in making KingSim less buggy! BUG FIXED: 1) Building the market makes no tutorial arrow appear when the adviser asks if you want to walk around the market on day 3. 2) Running out of happiness after taking a goat for yourself does not end in a game over. 3) Unknown merchant asks you to buy Ainie from prison even if you freed and married her (which loops the game logic). 4) Running out of health on the mine collapse event, triggers one of the dark rituals endings. 5) Spider Wife was trying to build peace between the people and the monsters but the last choice given is called "continue". 6) Having less than 10 money and choosing the negotiate option while deciding what to do with Esteban, then leaving the city,…

You can now become an investor-king and profit through villages taxation or build schools to educate your peasants. Overall improvements. You can now skip the tutorials, control the sawmill with a keyboard instead of a mouse, create undead on the graveyard to help with protection when using dark magic. I'm excited to hear your feedback and really hope that…

- New Story events for KingSim Major Update are done!!! - 17 May 2021
Hi, fellow Kings and Queens! I've finally managed to finish working on new in-game events for the upcoming KingSim update. I know it took me much longer than anticipated, but I've tried to make new decisions for players as fun and as meaningful as in the main story mode. In my estimation, the new KingSim update will provide players with about an additional hour to rule and make tough decisions. What left to do: - New character animations; - New death concept art and animation; - Few small changes and game improvements; - Testing of new content and bug fixing; I'll try to finish the Major KingSim update as quickly as possible. Thanks for waiting and believing in me!
- KingSim Developer Streaming during Pankace Week! - 8 March 2021
Woohoo, Pancake Week is on! This means: - A nice discount for new Kings and Queens during the event; - A lot of Russian-made games are on discount as well; - I'll be streaming the game every day (or almost every day) from 8 to 14 of Match, chatting with viewers and some of my gamedev colleagues; In Russia, the celebration of the end of winter is called "Masleniza". Usually, we bake pancakes during this period and put hay stuffed dummy on fire (pretty medieval, right?). We also dance, sing, play games outside with children, and ride horses.
- KingSim First Major Update Coming Soon! - 30 December 2020

This may take a while, but the biggest milestone was passed! ːsteamhappyː In the coming update you will see: New story events! With different choices to make, new outcomes to see, and new ways to die! *oops* Game+ mode! Special new events that will appear after the "End Game" button appearance. They will make it more fun to conquer the world or make a peace with other nations. New Characters! Some of which were inspired by West-European, Eastern, and Slavik myths & tales.

- Update plans & News - 1 June 2020
Hello, fellow Kings and Queens! I hope most of you managed to survive threw the main story already and see some ending to the story. I'm going to share some information about how I'm going to work on KingSim next, share my plans one point at a time. 1) Bug fixes. First of all, right now I'm gathering info (from you, players as well) about ingame bugs there are in the current game build. Right after the first week after the release ends, I will spend 1 week searching and eliminating those bugs, Lords and Ladies. If you saw some bug in the game - now would be the right time to shout about it in the "Report a bug" section in the steam discussions of KingSim. !!! Be mindful that your current save files will not work after the bug fixes. If you want to finish an interesting game save - you should do it now. I'm sorry that you will lose your save data, but there is no other way of improving t…
- KingSim just came out! - 28 May 2020
A game has finally been released! Oh, Lords and Kings, Ladies and Queens! A lot of decisions to be made, a lot of NPCs is gonna die. And you... You're gonna die with 'em. Try to survive for as long as you can. Over a hundred different deaths to encounter and endure. Sure, game a bit smaller than I, as a developer, anticipated and planned, but it's still pretty fun! I'm planning to make some free updates to the game story as time goes on. Don't forget to leave an honest review and report bugs (if any) so I could make the game better. You can always connect with me via KingSim Steam discussion and - If you don't like the game - remember you could refund it if you've played for less than 2 hours. Remember: it's not getting to the end that counts, but the fun of the process. I wish you all to enjoy your 8-bit medieval experience!
