Volume 2 and Unreal Engine 5 Updates!
I'm very pleased with the improvements that Unreal Engine is providing, especially the excellent physics that enables some very realistic details in animations. One quick reminder, as I know this is a bit confusing. I am moving to Unreal Engine to produce the artwork for the game, but my game engine is not changing. That means that saves, UI, etc. will be the same with Volume 2. It also means that you won't need to worry about GPU or CPU upgrades, as far as my game is concerned.
It has been an adventure to get all the characters converted and looking their best, but the improvements in rendering speed and animation setups make all the extra trouble worth it. The ladies have updated skin textures with some subtle quality improvements, and most of them have their final hair settings with a physics setup. The next installment of To Be A King will provide that realistic jiggle in "key" areas.
Apart from the graphics change, the music and sound effects have been undergoing their own overhaul. I've been working with a composer to get new music and polish some of the existing themes. These music & sound effects updates will be in Volume 2, and they will also come to Volume 1 as a patch later this year.
Cronut fans will be pleased to know that he got an extensive overhaul during his conversion, and he can now independently move his hands, arms, legs, feet, & head. Before he was limited to full-body movements and just his eyes. Expect to see him holding a few more things in future releases. (hopefully he doesn't acquire any weapons).
I know you all are ready for a Volume 2 release, and it is truly a shame that Goddess Anna has not given me the ability to get more done in a day. Volume 2 is still on track for a release this year with many hours of content, and it will now be fully animated, as well, when it is finished. There may be some other surprises included with Volume 2, but too soon to announce those. I'll keep you all updated here every few weeks as I work towards finishing and overhauling Volume 2. New adventures await, and I'm looking forward to you all seeing the fruits of all this work I've been doing. Until next time, be well, Kings!

As a newly appointed royal minister, brought in after the previous minister was deposed, you take your position during a time of uncertainty. You've been loyal to the king ever since you two rose up the military ranks together. Serving in the eastern part of the kingdom, your victories earned new territory and riches for your king, your soldiers, and yourself.
Three recent assassination attempts have left the entire kingdom on edge. Are you entering a greater position of power during a time where your role can be solidified? Or will you be swiftly removed as the kingdom continues to unravel? Throughout your time, you'll learn more behind who really controls power in the kingdom, uncover plots against it, and have many opportunities for romance. As the kingdom experiences turmoil, alliances that seemed stable are quickly shattered, and everyone seems to be out for themselves. Do you have what it takes to make the right decisions and emerge as king? Throughout the game you have choices in who to ally with, which women you want to pursue, and what extra side stories you want to pursue. This is a harem game where you can have all the women, one, or none.
As an interactive adult visual novel, you can choose your own adventure. You'll get to make choices that influence how other characters respond to you and what happens in the story. Set in an alternate history where the Roman Empire continued, though under a different name, you will face significant challenges, but can emerge victorious. Will you take the cautious approach or assert your control through your army? Which ladies vying for your affection to secure their own riches, safety, and influence will you choose to bring along with you in your adventures?
