A downloadable game

Ah, fairy tales! The Prince saves the Princess, they get married and live happily ever after - or that's how it usually goes. But what if the Prince was gay?

Your Royal Gayness is a story-driven fairytale parody game where you must navigate royal life as Prince Amir and rule your kingdom while your parents - the King and Queen - are traveling. Manage your Kingdom's resources, make challenging choices and come up with funny and absurd excuses to avoid marriage!

The game is faithful to the fairytales it's modeled after: the stories are at the front and center. The difference is that you get to choose how the story goes! Every playthrough is different not only because your choices affect what happens, but also because you never know what kind of problems Prince Amir has to face each day. The content and order of the story is always different!

Features:

• A story that changes every playthrough!
• Tons of unique & hilarious excuse combinations
• Endearing characters
• Stylized fairytale-esque art
• Original soundtrack
• Give commands to your advisors, brew potions, set laws and change your outfit in the Management Phase!
• Challenging resource management
• Tricky decisions
• You choose how you want to play - be a benevolent ruler or a ruthless tyrant!
• A fun mix of casual and challenging gameplay

I've just played all the way to the end of this game and I loved it!

The gameplay was addictive - I just never wanted to stop! Keeping track of everything, balancing the different concerns, making difficult choices... it was all so engaging and fun and never seemed to get too overwhelming or unfair.

The characters and stories were interesting, too - nothing mind-blowing, but still adding plenty of interest, fun and variety to the game.

There were plenty of laughs in this game, but it also knew when to get serious. There were lots of weighty topics and themes here, and they were talked about simply, engagingly and seriously.

Well done with this - it's very well-made!

Hi, so for some reason after I just bought this and tried to download...it says 'undefined'. Basically, it won't download and the message I get is this: 

Queuing install for https://aviala.itch.io/your-royal-gayness... 

While queuing for download: TypeError: Cannot read property 'build' of undefined at file: ///C:Users/(namehere)/AppData/Local/itch/app-25.5.1/resources/app/dist/renderer/7.chunk.js:894:39. 

Basically, it just goes on like this with more info. But, if someone could explain what's going on and why I can't download this and help resolve the issue, that'd be great! Thanks so much!

Hello,

Thanks for the bug report! We just fixed this on our end and will be rolling out a new patch sometime soon. :)

Hey!

I love the game, but I have to report a few bugs I encountered:

They told me to report the depressed dragon storyline bug, the raid storyline bug, and the atruism event bug. 

Thank you!

Hello! I'm glad you're enjoying the game. The bugs you described sound like ones we might have already fixed, but we'll definitely make sure they're gone for good.  If you're not playing version 1.9.3 you may want to delete the version you have and download the updated files. That may fix the issues you're having.

Wait, I just have 1 question. Are there character path endings where you end with a romance with other characters, or no?

There's romantic endings in the game but it's not like in most visual novels - The dateable characters are the princes of other kingdoms who are randomized to an extent, so the game doesn't have traditional romance routes. Rather, you get date events with your boyfriend throughout the game and depending on a few different things you choose during your playthrough you may get different kinds of outcomes regarding to your romance in the end. The endings in this game consist of a few different parts, so you can for example get the "tyrant" ending because of the choices you made in the game, but still also get a romantic & positive ending with your boyfriend :)

Fun game, just downloaded it and played my way through the 60 days straight :P  This post is to report an error, but to anyone reading this the game is still quite fun!


However, at the end of the last day I got this error:

[code]
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Ya, replayed the last week and got a different one.  I'll wait for your reply before I try again.  Although since I assume others are fine in the current version I am guessing this might be more because of how I played/my stats at the end, and if I play again from the beginning I should be fine?

Hey there! Thanks for the bug reports! We thought we had fixed all of them, but it appears there's still something wrong with the altruist (good guy) route of the game since both of the bugs you encountered have to do with altruist stuff.
I'm sorry you haven't been able to finish your playthrough. We'll try to fix these soon and release a small patch with bug fixes. :)

Thanks, I wasn’t too worried.  I knew you guys would fix it once you got the chance :)

I'm very excited for the game, but I'm having a slight issue;

I can't seem to save the game. I don't see an option for it, and when I've quit, it's said if I go to the main menu my game will be saved, but then it... isn't. It just doesn't show up in the loading screen. It's a good thing I found that out before I got particularly far.

Another issue is I've turned on the kickstarter characters, and the rollback option in the options menu, but nothing seems to change. I tried with the choice hints too. It says it's been chosen but I still can't roll back to see what I've missed.

I'm on a Mac. I'd appreciate to know what I can do to fix this, as I'd really like to play!

Rollback and hints have started working now that I've restarted the game, but I still genuinely don't see an option for saving the game anywhere, which is worrying me. The quicksave I have seems to be only one, from a while ago, and I can't find any way to click save, though I can see the loading screen and all the empty, waiting slots. The help button doesn't seem to indicate any saving method that I can see.

OH. IT'S JUST ONCE A WEEK. THANK YOU, SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION.

Hey there! Thanks for the feedback! You can actually also save by exiting the game to Main Menu, but this isn't really properly stated in the game. We wanted the game to save when you directly exit the game too, but there were some problems that we couldn't fix in time for launch. We'll try to do something about the issue in a future patch if we can figure it out.

My game just crashed really dramatically. I'd managed to "Ignore" my way past another bug, but...no luck with this one:

[code] I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

I really like the game and would like to finish. Any way I can fix this bug quick?

Hey there! Sorry for the crash! We just uploaded a patched version of the game. This one should be way less buggy than the launch version. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Man, I really wanted to like that game, but there are so many bugs!

And after this one I can´t continue the game.

Hi friend! Enjoying the game so far!

However, I've hit a bug and wanted to let you know. This happened randomly around day 18 I think.

Hey there! Thanks for reporting this bug! We'll release a patch soon that will fix this and lots of other issues. You'll be able to download the updated version of the game from this page. For now, you can just click "ignore" to move past this bug. It shouldn't affect your playthrough further!

Played the Demo, and am now happy to say I get to enjoy the full game! I love all the new additions so far and my favorite character is the Drakemaster! If your looking for something silly and lighthearted I full recommend it.

(2 edits)

Apparently I hit a bug in my game. A message appears saying "This is bug, please report. Caused by gem storyline.."

Edit : I also ran into an error: 'spymasternameknown' not defined after the Seraph located Farrah

Edit 2:  And 'current_prisoner_pronoun' is not defined when my boyfriend and I visited the dungeons.

Hey there! Thanks for reporting these bugs! We'll do our best to fix them ASAP! :) We're expecting to get a patch done in a few days. Thanks for your patience!
