🎄Festive Notice to all Monarchs - Rawcember has arrived!🎅
“Jingle, jingle…”🔔
Do you hear this lovely sound, Monarchs?
It’s the delicate chime of the winter bells - which indicates that today is the first day of December! But, as the old legend goes, no December is merely a month in our beautiful Kingdom…
Noble Monarchs, prepare thine hearts, we invite you for this grand commencing - an event of unparalleled magnificence that shall usher in the season with merriment fit for royalty!
And the name of that event is The gates swing wide open to reveal this figure-of-speech winter wonderland! All of Raw Fury games and the team behind them come together to celebrate each other and, as the Kingdom team, we would like to share some of our fireplace stories about personal experiences with creating Kingdom✨
The most fantastic part of this month-long event is that it’s only the beginning! Expect more news, collaborations, streams, giveaways and exciting activities, some of which coming up as soon as later today🔥
Join us around a cozy fireplace - it’s story time with the devs✨
Immerse thyself in stories that transcend time, weaving a tapestry of magic and adventure. Let the written word be a lantern guiding you through the labyrinth of imagination.
“Before all character sprites were done, we would put cats in the game as placeholders! My other favorite is the randomly rotating stuff... like when the mule just decides it walks on its face.” Alan, Game Designer
“My fav bug is the one where you can get a duplicate dog. Two dogs. That’s a “not-a-bug-it’s-a-feature” bug, if I ever saw one.” Angelica, Experience Producer
“Three winters ago, I joined the Kingdom team and one of the first things I got to do was play Kingdom Two Crowns in co-op together with Gordon Van Dyke. He taught me a Kingdom hack I never would have figured out on my own - if you upgrade your castle several levels fast, you get your first walls and wall upgrades for free! It was a privilege to learn from the best.” Elisabeth, Producer
“I think my favorite bug has to be in Shogun when you chop down a tree a ninja was hiding behind, he wouldn't mind and just stood there hiding in plain sight😅But being so well-trained, he pulled it off, and the Greed would walk right past him anyway. P.S. I'm not even sure anymore, if we fixed this or not, I think we did.” Danijel, Developer
“When I joined the Kingdom team as a QA I was told to just play the game for the first couple of weeks to learn it. This liberty allowed me to figure out one of the known, but unreproducible issues. That was my first ticket in Jira and remains one of my favorite bugs to this day.😊 It was this peasant who moved like they were waterskiing. I called it "a slider".
It was challenging to reproduce and it took me about a week of playtesting to figure it out. Eventually, I exposed it!
The issue would happen when a floater would pick up a peasant and then when archers would kill the floater, the peasant would drop and remain frozen in this animation, sliding their way until they would pick up a tool and become an employed citizen.😊"Kristina, QA Manager
“Now with the Christmas season coming and the snow already laying on the streets, I can’t help but imagine what it would be like to just hang out with my colleagues in Christmas jumpers, have some hot chocolate and gingerbread cookies, then altogether gather in the Gaming Room, and just play the Two Crowns co-op with one another😊” Driver, Senior Community Manager
“My favourite thing is playing the Christmas Event in Kingdom New Lands. No matter how many times I play it, it still makes me so happy to get to prance around on a reindeer and drop presents. I absolutely love Christmas and this never fails to get me in the festive mood.
The thing I recently discovered is that, if presents drop near the Greed, they'll take those in place of a coin and it's actually so cute seeing a little Greed holding a present.” Vicki, Community Ambassador

👑 Are we worthy of your acclaim? Kingdom Two Crowns at the Steam Awards! 👑
Your Majesties,
We're letting you know that, as part of the Steam Autumn Sale, you, regal Monarchs, can champion Kingdom Two Crowns at the Steam Awards!
The development love story (and beautiful legacy) behind this Kingdom building title dates back all the way to 2015 when two developers, Thomas van den Berg and Marco Bancale, spent countless months pouring their passion, talent and love into unknown-at-the-time indie game of their own creation, carefully crafting and ultimately bringing you the very first Kingdom experience. Years later, in 2018 the developer Fury Studios and publisher Raw Fury launched the flagship title of the Kingdom franchise, Kingdom Two Crowns, that not only developed on the initial affection for the title, and amplified it further, but also honored the elegant heritage and pixel beauty making it an unforgettable and favorite experience for millions of players across the world.
We would be honored and humbled, if you casted your vote for 💗Kingdom Two Crowns in the nomination Labor of Love!💗
Patch Notes 1.1.19.
The random islands in the Lost Islands challenge are now more random.
Linux: Addressed several controller issues that have prevented the Linux version of the game from being verified on Steam Deck.
IMPORTANT: With these fixes, we will re-submit the game to Steam Deck verification with the Linux build, which may cause players already playing the Proton-run version of Kingdom Two Crowns on Steam Deck to be unable to access their previous save data. The save data is not erased but will exist in a different directory, which is recoverable through the following process. In order for a smooth transition and to continue with your previous save data, we urge you to register to our PlayFab service in the pause menu and upload your saves as soon as possible, so that they can be re-downloaded again once the game has been updated with the Linux version.
If you have not registered to PlayFab and notice that your save data is no longer accessible by the game after our verification pass, you can still access your old saves by going to Library > Kingdom Two Crowns > Properties > Compatibility, check the box next to “Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool” and choose “Proton Experimental” in the drop-down menu. This should allow access to your old save data and give you another chance to transfer them via PlayFab.

This is Thomas here, creator of the original Kingdom🏰✨. Firstly, a sincere thank you to each of you for being a part of the Kingdom journey with me. Your enthusiasm has always been the driving force behind my passion for game development.I wanted to share something new and quite different from the world of Kingdom. Together with my amazing friend Friedemann, we present to you
🍕Pizza Possum🦝
It's an arcade stealth game that's light-hearted and engaging. While Pizza Possum has its own unique toppings, fans of Kingdom might recognize a sprinkle of my game design philosophy baked right in.If you've enjoyed the atmosphere and creativity of Kingdom, I believe you might find a different kind of joy in Pizza Possum. Do give it a try!
Thank you for your continuous support. Here's to new adventures! 🐾
