Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Dragon Princess III of Grand Tower Kingdom

Of all the forces invading across the land, none are so feared as that of the Green Dragon Princess- the grand general of the Dragon Queen's armies, and her deadliest, most precious weapon.  She is heralded by a storm of acid rain born from her form, plants wilting and dying before being obliterated into dust and ash from the force of her direct breath.  Her army's corroded, poison-pitted armor is all that defends their already dead or nonliving bodies from a similar fate.

Her...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Arcane Princess of Raining Jewel Kingdom

Raining Jewel Kingdom is a remnant of an earlier era. A time of primal magic, and its inhabitants reflect that. The crystal folk, and all flora, and fauna herein live off magic. It is a place of stark, deadly, beauty inhabited by a predominately peaceful people. Few things can threaten it. 

Indeed few people even know of it. But to the magically powerful it is a place spoken of in whispers. Those who would unravel the ancient mysteries of the Arcane and of the people who came befor...

Unity Port: Update 3 - Dungeons

Not going to be a huge or thoughtful update this time, but I've recorded some footage of a Dungeon in Unity, which is elaborated on slightly more-so toward the end of this post.

The earliest, pre-pre alpha Towergirls dungeons were essentially just a rip off of Darkest Dungeon.  Ser was unable to be moved around the various rooms, and instead just automatically t...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Faun Princess of Melodic Valley Kingdom

In the deepest south there is a tiny valley, defended by cliffs and jungle to one side, and desert mountains to the other. This secluded place is the only one in all of Corona where Fey and Mortal interact peaceably. Founded by the daughter of two worlds, a new race born true; the Faun Queen had a dream that was one where mortal and fae, order and chaos, would exist side by side peacefully. Knowing that the mortals would fear the Fae no matter what, and the Fae, in their capriciousness, could...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Jester Princess of The Rhinestone Carnival

Rhinestone Carnival has three faces. One it presents to the world, one it presents to those ostensibly in the know, and one that is only known to it's members. The Rhinestone carnival, to the world, is a place free of the trials and travails and petty hatreds set between the races! A place where human and haunt, greenskin and fae, beastfolk and dragonkin can all find common ground and be entertained! They prevent the worst things from the haunts from going into the south, and provide refuge f...

Unity Port: Update 2 - Dialogue

Dialogue is a huge, if not the most important part of our Towergirls game.  Each character able to join the party has something like a minimum of five or six pages of dialogue, with Kobold Princess main dialogue code being like seventy.  We've always been pushing for there to be more than moderate amounts of dialogue and narration text whenever possible.  This makes for a lot of stored dialogue and content.  In GMS I never made a particularly pretty or efficient dialogue s...

Unity Port: Update 1 - User Interface

One of the major pains with GMS was working on the user interface.  In the past, I would have to recompile the texture page and game (a process that could take up to a minute) whenever one of the ingame sprites was edited, modified, or added.  Even when I was purely working with code this would still be 15-20 seconds or so between every change made and previewing the UI.  Also any scaling had to be hard-coded, most of the buttons were custom rectangle intersection code, etc. et...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Sword Princess of Crystalline Battalion Kingdom

Humanity pretenses to unity but in some places the legacy of their bloody history and bellicose nature lives on. In Crystalline Battalion, the ghosts of ancient humans slumber (if they are lucky) in the form of weapons and armor. Long ago the First King worked to unite humanity under his rule. His was a vision of prosperous cities, unified laws, and a singular human culture that would dominate Corona, and perhaps, the world.

He would not live on to see his dream to fruition. His spirit ...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Yeti Princess of Whiteout Summit Kingdom

Royalty is linked to the land, and from it they draw power. For this reason, Royalty has powers beyond their subjects, in the form of magic and ability, provided they do not allow their abilities to rust through sloth and vice. So it is that the people of a land can declare a royal (for whatever reason) to be an empowered champion. When the Yeti people were reduced to a single, solitary girl, who nevertheless did all in her power to help those around her, the tribes of Whiteout Summit came to...

Important Announcement For Chivalrous Games

Hey, important announcement.

I'd like to preface this statement with a heartfelt thanks for all the support and kind words we've had over the years.  Development hasn't moved at much more than a moderate pace (who am I kidding?) but all of you have stuck with us regardless.  There's a huge amount of support and camaraderie with the Towergirls community in general...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Sphinx Princess of Glittering Dune Kingdom

The Glittering Dune Kingdom is a refutation to the claims of Academia Humanitas that Beastfolk are lawless by nature. The Great Sphinx Queen keeps her realm orderly and controlled, and indeed, expands that lawful domain where possible. It is a place of culture and learning with great monuments and inventive solutions. A testament to the kingdom's power is the fact that its heir can afford to waste her time on strange games and idle pastimes. The kingdom's beastfolk have been shaped by the env...

Towergirls 0.131.90

Relatively small bug-fix patch.  We'll have more to show toward the end of this month.

Edit: Download should be up to date now.

Edit2: Download should go to the correct Mega.nz file now.

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Moth Princess of Illusory Urn Kingdom

It is said that once the kingdoms of the bug-folk were united and ruled the imperial east. The workers, the warriors, the justiciars, and finally, the mages. The Flightfolk, Moths, Butterflies, and dragon flies are all renowned for their magical talents, and their kingdom is one of the most magical. There is some question of whether  or not they have true magical powers, or if the hallucinogenic scales from their wings, or the buzzing of their wings, is what truly gives them their 'magic...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Imp Princess of the Hearthstone Cavalcade

Wandering aimlessly across the entirety of the continent, the Hearthstone Cavalcade is well known for their antics and charm. Lead by the (in)famous Imp Princess, the hearthstone cavalcade has claimed to be everything from a band of rebels, a conquering horde, a mysterious spy cartel, and today they claim it's an adventurers' band! Mostly, however, it's just a bunch of prankster imps trading in magical powers for anything that attracts their attention. Recently, the Imp Princess,...

Towergirls 0.131.89

All the new Kobold Princess stuff has been added!  Gone is the placeholder <Missing Dialogue here>, now she can join and leave your party with actual conversation.  The first time speaking with her post romancing she will also tell you about some of the stuff she would like to do and see.

Along with the many new pages of Kobold dialogue, we've also introduced a new shop and item...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Lamia Princess of Ashen Plateau Kingdom

The Kingdom of Ashen Plateau did not always have the name it does. Once buried beneath the ashen dust, the Lamias no longer remember exactly how it came to pass that their kingdom sunk beneath the dust, only that it happened shortly after the founding of their kingdom. Betrayal, hubris, greed- a thousand myths exist to explain what put Ashen Pit beneath the grains of ash and dust.  Each is as likely, or unlikely, as the last. What is known is how they rose. Ancient manuscripts found the ...

Updated Splash!

A new splash page for the past two months!  Now includes Ogre Princess, Dragon Princess II, Pirate Princess, and Drider Princess!

Note that we're going to immediately hold a vote for the two December princesses, so be sure you comment below on write-in princesses you'd like to be added next!

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Eldritch Princess of Winking Night Kingdom

The Winking Dark Kingdom is among the youngest of existing kingdoms. The land is part of the Orphans, those lands of the west that are isolated by geography and climate. Mountains to the north and west, and terrible reefs and a storm wracked coast have made this place into little more than a legend for most of the world, a place where dreams can be granted. Now, the new kingdom fights for it's life. Angelic invaders encroach from the north, bringing cleansing fire and holy teachings, claiming...

Towergirls 0.131.88

Our writers have been hammering away at the new Kobold Princess content, and some of the new folks have been likewise hammering away at the Human Princesses content.  With our artists and sexy beast of a coder free, we've been able to work on some general quality-improving tasks.  Several of these have been added in this patch, including-

- A 4k overmap, roughly three times the size of the old one.

- A quest tracker, which tells what the next objective is for the active ...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Raider Princess of The Everharsh Glacier

Man once roamed and roamed far. They put down no roots, they built no walls, they furrowed no fields. They were a scourge, a race that denied the gifts of the gods, denied the gifts of magic, and denied the gifts of civilization.  They lived entirely by the sword and the axe.  Only the threat of the Dragon Queen could call this race together, and make them realize that while they bickered and reveled in their freedom from mortal and god, they had allowed beings greater than themselves ...

Towergirls 0.131.87

Here's the other half of the patch.  Mostly bug and crash fixes, although I've enabled the exterior dungeons.  Some territories (mostly Band of the Moon and Endless Fields region) now show decor when an overmap encounter occurs at them.  We'll be adding in more and more forest / exterior types as we move forward.  As these tilesets are completed it'll also allow us to make dungeons set in forests- a must have feature for RPG's.

Also one of Kobold Princess' dates is finished...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Triclops Princess of Fragrant Smoke Kingdom

On the edge of the Grand Tower Kingdom lies a misty refuge. guarded by terrible storms and treacherous peaks. The Fragrant Smoke Kingdom is hard for anyone to reach, but the true answer to it's peaceful nature lies in the protection of the Gigant descendants whose domain it is. The magical Triclops guard the valley as their ancient homeland, and protect those species who would have been driven to extinction, or twisted to other purposes. They take this duty very serious, for there are those who ...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Djinn Princess of Burning Lantern Kingdom

There exists many planes of existence, although some are easier to access than others.  One kingdom that lies beyond the path of the known is that of the Burning Lantern.  There is but one burning lantern, and through the magical gates of their lamps, the inhabitants of the kingdom throw themselves into other worlds.  The more magic exists in a world the more lamps it can support.  Magic is so thick on Corona that the Djinn were able to create not just a few lamps, here and t...

Towergirls 0.131.86

This patch is comparatively minor- there's a number of different additions in the works, but none of them are quite ready for release.  Towards the end of this month I intend on releasing the second half of this patch, with the addition of several forest tilesets for overmap encounters and future dungeons, along with more bug fixes and improvements.  In the mean time there's a crash that somehow escaped my notice, hence this early patching.  Expect more sooner than later.

Fisher Kingdom Tournament vs High Forest Resolution

Lords and Dames it has once again come time to poll you wonderful benefactors for your opinion. We will continue working on Kobold Princess' romance stuff, but we have the art and code team available for working on another task.  Other than Kobold loving, the next leg of our journey will either take us through The Fisher Kingdom or no less than three Human Kingdoms. The Fisher Kingdom arc will consist ...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Dog Princess of Alabaster Shrub Kingdom

Of all the princesses across all the kingdoms, a few were simply passed over due to... reasons.  Dog Princess is one such princess.  Not only are the Eastern Wilds nearly impenetrable, but the Dogfolk are fanatical when provoked, and have natural strength nearly unsurpassed among all the Beastfolk.  This lead to the third Dragon Princess considering Dog Princess' capture to be a foolish proposition.  She saw this as a waste of intelligence resources better spent elsewhere, ev...

Towergirls Charts: Gen 3, Vampire Princess of Bloodlit Wood Kingdom

The oldest home of undeath on the continent; the Bloodlit Wood is said to be where the haunt first descended upon the world.  It was here that necromancy was refined into an art-form that resulted in entirely new species, even as the worst effects of it were tamed and brutally strangled into submission.  The Haunt rules farther North- but in the crimson woods of the Vampires the haunt is instead ruled, channeled towards the health and long life of anyone who dares enter their domain.&n...

Towergirls 0.131.85

This version has several bug fixes (some of which were more wily and hidden) and marks the addition of basic Diplomacy.  Kingdoms, similar to princesses, have a Disposition that will lower and raise depending on what actions are taken against them (soon).  In order to trade, you must be in a testgame or have cheats enabled, and right click a neighboring territory.  One of the context buttons will be Diplomacy, which allows you to offer a trade, (later on demand stuff), or declare ...
