TLS 0.79.3 + DStP Last Call!Mar 26, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsWell, I didn't want to do this, but the 0.79.2 version has a number of errors. >_ TLS 0.79.2 is on Steam!Mar 21, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsThere's a new public update! More info available here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2025/03/tls-0792-public-release-kickstarter.html As you can see, I am hoping that this is a big stable release that will last for a while. The only remaining achievement report is taken care of, the new sprites/battlers are polished, etc. If not, there's still time to fix it, but I hope this is solid. >_ TLS 0.79.0 is released!Mar 14, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsNew update for supporters on Patreon or SubscribeStar! More info here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2025/03/tls-0790-released.html This is an absolutely huge visual update, so I won't copy over everything now. It should be coming to Steam in a week, with an additional achievement fix. Meanwhile we have exciting news on the DStP Kickstarter for everyone: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sierralee/dont-save-the-princess We have passed 400% of our goal, and we only need to hit 450% in order to make every sex scene in the game fully animated! All of the money toward this goal will go to Annikath, so if you have appreciated her work and want to see her do more animations, this would support her directly, me indirectly, and DStP overall. ^-^TLS 0.78.2b Achievement HotfixFeb 21, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsI don't usually do this, but I've pushed live a Steam-only update. This one fixes the only three achievements that I know to be bugged: Yarra's maxing achievement. Altina's joining achievement, if she joins later. Orilise's library count and achievement. I had planned to wait and try to get 100% of bugfixes at once, but a TON of people are playing TLS right now, so I figured I might as well give a hotfix. ^-^ If any other achievements are bugged, just let me know and I'll get on them! Meanwhile, I'm trying something else exciting: a Kickstarter for one of my side projects: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sierralee/dont-save-the-princess This is a different sort of game than TLS, but it's another brick in the foundation of my career, so please consider following the project if you want to keep up with it!TLS 0.78.2 is on Steam - Achievements and Trading Cards!Feb 14, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsNormally this is where I would link the blog, but this is actually a Steam-first update! Check out all the updates: TLS 0.78.0 All 169 achievements for Steam are now added and active. Over a hundred new attack animations added and thousands of changes made to the enemy database. Few balance changes, just an overhaul of the visuals. New sprites for certain characters: Aka, Robin, Uyae, Grynyth, Bertricia, Fheliel, Sarai, Tertia, Varia, Wendis. All sex animations have been updated to match. New battlers added: Mestan and Lilith. Sequence of new map images added to the intro. A significant number of busts thanks to Lamsey, culminating in the full Ardford council. I believe we have now changed all the major characters we plan to change. The custom LUK script has been modified yet again, this time hopefully insuring that enemies don't get any extra critical hit chance. Orilise now comments on the library completion throughout the game. She also activates the library achievement. It makes me nervous to put out an update that hasn't been thoroughly tested, but there was no choice this time: the key component is the achievements, which can only be tested live on Steam. All 169 achievements should be active, so let me know if anything seems omitted. They can all be attained, but it's possible that there's an alternate path to one that I missed, for example. The other Steam thing is trading cards, which should begin dropping. In non-Steam news, please check out all the new attack animations! I put a ton of work into this, trying to make the game more visually striking throughout. There's also quite a bit of visual polishing above, taking the game increasingly close to the final release. ^-^TLS 0.78.0 is released!Feb 7, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsNew update for supporters on Patreon or SubscribeStar! More info here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2025/02/tls-0780-released.html There is a whole lot going on in this update, so check the blog post!

More info available here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2024/12/tls-0772-public-release.html This one took longer because I was trying to set things up specifically for you guys here! There's a whole epilogue for people to enjoy, but please do comment on the new Steam achievements. If they work properly, I will set up the whole list for the next update.TLS 0.77.0 is released - ten years of TLS!Nov 22, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsNew update for supporters on Patreon or SubscribeStar!

More info here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2024/09/tls-0750-released.html This update is an unusual one, because it doesn't have the next chunk of content, but does have a ton of new features.

More info here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2024/05/tls-0740-released-final-battle.html TLS 0.74.0 - The final battle. Here it is, the result of months of work (and in a sense years). Usually I say that an update will be available in a week or maybe two, but in this case I can make no promises about when it will go public. This is an update of high complexity and length, plus I am wiped out from the marathon of the last few months. Updated roadmap: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33921221/b074ecf4094f7ebea291e1af6eca9d9f47962c67.png The blog is the place to watch for updates, but everyone will get to play eventually. I hope it's worth the wait. ^-^Update on the Final BattleApr 28, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsI'm always updating supporters on Patreon, but I didn't want to leave everyone else following the game in the dark for so long, so I have made a Patreon post public: https://www.patreon.com/posts/102654309 More information (and fanart!) at the link, but basically I think it would be fastest and best for the game overall if I did one bigger update instead of two smaller ones. Please look forward to it!TLS 0.73.4 is on Steam!Mar 15, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsThere's a new public update! More info available here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2024/03/tls-0734-public-release.html There is a lot of new content this time, of virtually all types. See blog for more info, but I especially hope that one will take care of the keyboard and controller complaints that have occurred from time to time.TLS 0.73.0 is released!Feb 23, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsNew update for supporters on Patreon or SubscribeStar! More info here: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2024/02/tls-0730-released.html TLS 0.73.0 - Vhala has a "harem" quest, starting in the base hallway after the Incubus War. - Stineford has been entirely overhauled! This is one of the biggest visual updates I've done to the game and I'm just crossing my fingers that I didn't screw something up during the upgrade. - If Sarai was sexually restricted in your game, you can now get her to join the harem via her personal quest (if you already finished it, there's an alternate event in her tower). This is functionally the same, but involves some new conversations and dialogue variants. - Nalili's quest now grants an additional reward, which can be found in her room even if you've already completed the quest. This is necessary for... - A short quest that will grant a final battle item, if you've gathered all four major ingredients. - Fuani now appears in the Renthnor Wilds guild, offering tips about all incomplete harem quests. - Yarra's upgraded sex room now has two alternate configurations, for those who complained about the original tiles. - Additional details around the base dependent on country scores, now covering Darghelon, Gheldaron, Zirantia, Erosia, and Rodak. - Depending on the Entity Cohesion variable, you can see a scene resting under the tree at the Nostalgic Home. - The final Shining Sword bonus is now available. I intend to add one more in the last optional dungeon for flex, however. - During the Orilise segment of the elven forests sequence, the timer running out should now cause game over. This needs more testing. - Did you know that the majority of cases refer to "Miners' Junction" but in 29 locations I accidentally wrote "Miner's Junction"? Well, not anymore! - Bug where you could see Wendis transformed early fixed. - Thanks to Rachnera, TLS has advanced keyboard remapping options in the System menu. - There are now control tutorials when starting a new game. - What may be the final investments of the game, pending any final balance tweaks. - The placeholder in the teleportation room has finally been replaced with Riala, who will check preparedness and lead to the final battle (next time). - One new sex scene. - New illustrated scenes: Elleani Relief, Megail x Iris Anal, Janine Wedding Night - Assorted bugfixing and polishing. Updated roadmap: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33921221/d1f95f53bec6508b9b1f53baaa14340c12a99c82.png This is meant to be the final open world update before the finale. I want to finish everything, including new issues that may come up, so no promises about when this one goes public. EDIT: The update is still limited to Patreon and Subscribestar. See the blog post for details.TLS 0.72.2 is on Steam!Dec 15, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsThere's a new public update!

I managed to finish every single harem quest this year, but not quite all the endgame content. Hope people have fun with it. ^-^TLS 0.71.1 is on Steam!Nov 10, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsNew mini-update out! Available here or via the blog: https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2023/11/tls-0711-public-release.html I'm making progress, trying to stay focused, so keeping this short.
