Hey everyone,

As part of the triple-i showcase, we’re revealing a new look at Super Fantasy Kingdom — a roguelite city builder where peasants harvest, heroes fight, and everything you’ve built can still go up in flames.

After returning to a ruined homeland, you’ll gather resources, construct buildings, and defend your gates against nightly monster raids. Pick your guardian, recruit from over 100 units, and hold the line with trebuchets, dinosaurs, or whatever else you can afford to feed.

Each run reshapes the kingdom, unlocking new allies, locations, and strategies as you push deeper into a world that changes every time.

If this is your first time hearing about Super Fantasy Kingdom, welcome.

Wishlist the game on Steam to keep up with development and prepare for the siege.

As just announced on the PC Gamer Show, I am very proud to present the future of SFK:


Slow and weak, but many - the dead provide a completely different challenge:

• Hard decisions: Your skeletons break into pieces after working, so use them wisely
  
• Blood economy: Eat rats or harvest their blood for rituals and book-making
  
• The catacombs: Workers may take underground shortcuts, leading to interesting city layouts
  
• A sewage system to harvest ooze and mutate pumpkins

There will be more posts explaining it all in greater detail. Until then, you can check out footage from content creators or play the new demo yourself (details below).

Super Fantasy Kingdom will be released with two kingdoms!

---

The big plan for this game was always to have multiple very different kingdoms, each with its own identity and spin on the gameplay loop.

Many have asked about the long waiting time when the demo already had much to offer.
I can finally say: It was all about getting closer to that vision.

That year of public updates to the demo was very important to have a good foundation. Implementing the bigger changes required after analyzing all your feedback and getting the human kingdom to full length was a fast and relatively easy process because of that.

I understand many of you would've liked a release at that point, but having two kingdoms is crucial for the game. It changes how progression must work, how the story is structured, and how approachable the game is. For example, when you have difficulty in the human kingdom, you can switch to the undead and unlock more stuff there.

It also changed players' feedback. Before, every idea was to be cramped into the human kingdom, but now it is almost the opposite. Because it's not just some vague vision anymore, but a clear goal the player can see as well.


Having another public demo development period for the undead kingdom would slow me down too much at this point. While any feedback is helpful, we need more active testers for the full game!


Instead, we will do a big closed alpha test for the undead kingdom. Anyone can join in and play the new demo. We will spend a few weeks to improve it and gather feedback. Anyone actively participating will join the last phase of full game testing.

It's Steam Next Fest and we have a new demo for you to try!

Meet Selene, a new ice themed Guardian to lead your defenses!

As an elvish priestess she combines holy arrows with her frosty aura.
While she lacks the armor of the Knight, Selene more than makes up for it by sheer force of will.

To complement her we also have a new hero the Ice Mage for you to unlock.

The demo is fully playable in 16 languages now:

English, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Polish, Brazil Portuguese, French, Czech, Hungarian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Turkish and Ukrainian.


There have also been a myriad of little changes and Quality of Life improvements of course. You can rename your heroes now for example!

Yes, that's right. The demo will be removed from Steam next week.

And that is not easy for me. The demo has been incredibly important for Super Fantasy Kingdom. It is so easy to forget where we came from.

I only had one month to prepare a demo from my prototype. That was so tight that I could not test it, and I was not even sure the concept worked. But then so many people liked it. It was a bit overwhelming but also a big opportunity. How many other games get so much feedback in such an unrefined state?

So, I tried to make the best of it. With your help, I took a year to flesh it out, and I'm so happy I did that.


The game is already officially in pre-alpha! The first players are exploring more of the game. It seems to be going very well, so the real alpha will start soon.

But for that, we need hardcore players and new ones who have never played before.

The more I work on the game, the bigger the difference between the demo and the final game, not only in content but also in quality. Slowly, the demo is becoming less representative.

We will likely have another demo before release though!

So, let's celebrate the last days of the demo!

Play one of the challenge maps Emily made.[discord.com]

And then, once the demo is gone, the alpha may start…

Alpha applications will start on Discord[discord.com] soon!
Oh and if you haven’t already, please take a moment to add Super Fantasy Kingdom to your wishlist! It will help me and the game a lot.

For the whole last month I worked on refactoring code and performance optimization.

While not as interesting as new content, the results are crazy:

• Monster performance is 300% better! A screen full of monsters ran at unstable 20FPS before. Now it runs stable at over 60FPS.
  
• Projectiles were also improved. Before each behavior of a projectile was a component with a lot of overhead, now they are all just part of one component that handles them.
  
• Creating and destroying things takes a lot of time. So now all monsters, projectiles and effects are kept in memory and get reused instead. That makes the game more stable.

That all is not only very cool for the future, but its also important now. When I plan the balance and design the endgame I don't have to hold back.
