yeah I did it the double click, still can't. Then the right click one and the open anyway window didn't even pop-up. I check the security also, can't find the program. I don't know what to do :')
I don't ): I have these options: - Open with WinRar
- Extract files
- Extract here (what I usually do) Neither of them has an option to 'show the extracted files when complete' from what i could see. I usually do 'extract here' and the folder shows up in the same place, but the folder for this game didn't show up. when i try to extract again, though, it does say that the files are already existing
I haven't finished the demo yet, but this game seems great so far! Playing it felt nostalgic and almost bittersweet after spending so long on Royal Alchemist, even though i just played it a couple of hours ago, it seems like it's been ages. I have really high hopes for the full game, the art is gorgeous and the plot seems interesting! Can't wait to see what comes from this!Though I must admit, I'll miss Royal Alchemist, even after all the tears I shed and daily deaths I had
Tiny spoiler for the start of the demo: When I saw Beringer I gasped, and realising I was talking to Neri's parents also made me feel really nostalgic and bittersweet somehow, the improvement between games really emphasises a new era of sorts, like an indirect sequel as the summary says.
SORRY FOR RAMBLING SO MUCH, but I'm excited about this! Glad to see how far we've all come haha, I hope Alexis and whatever love interest or ending you chose is happy rn, I'll miss them
I am having trouble running the game on my Windows. It keeps saying an uncaught exception occured whenever I try to run the program. What should I do? The same thing is happening with the royal alchemist file as well :( it keeps showing this message
While running game code:

Hi I am using windows 11 and there are no additonal messages its only showing ScriptError. I am not very well versed in thesed things so I'll just post the entire message. Sorry about that.

Could you go into the downloaded Royal Order folder, navigate into the subfolder named "game" and see if you have a "tl" folder in there? If there is, can you try deleting it and see if the game runs afterwards?
It should be located inside the "game" folder and look like this.
omg I'm so happy that this game is about to come out next year!!!!! I still remember when I was totally down bad for Darryl that I replayed the demo everyday hbasjbj Best of luck with everything, I'm so excited<333.
Question! We see healers arrive in the opening scene to tend to the refugees. When it comes to medics, are they in the Garrison, High Mages, or Alchemists?
The High Council healers actually can be from any of those three factions. But since they either need to be adept at Water magic or have good knowledge about healing items, most tend to be Alchemists or High Mages.
Thank you, I appreciate the info! I also just finished the demo. OH MY GOD THAT TWIST Now I'm bouncing in anticipation for the full release, thank you so much for enthralling me so thoroughly!
aaa omg i remember playing this demo so so long ago but when i tried to get it again it won't open 💔 i'm just glad i got to play it at least once LMAO great game btw i can't wait till the full ver. is out #IRISLOVER #NUMBER1IRISFAN
Hello, I've tried to download the game on my Chromebook and phone,. wasn't able to open the .zip and then for my phone it said "there was a problem parsing the package" I dont know if its my fault some how as no one else seems to be having this problem. ;(
Hello! We haven't gotten this report before so it might be something on your end. Which version of Windows are you running? And are you downloading this through your browser or the Itchio app?
If you are using Linux, are you able to open other .zip files? If you are unable to open other .zip files, there might be an error with your unzipping software or your system doesn't have one installed by standard.
Let us know if just our .zip is an issue though, we will try to upload another format!
As for your phone, it might be because your settings don't allow apps from outside of the Play Store to be installed. To change this, you can try checking the following:
1. Go to settings on your device 2. Scroll down & Click on Applications 3. Check the box of “Unknown sources to allow installation of non Market Applications”
The exact wording might differ a bit from Android to Android, but we hope that helps!
I've had no trouble with zip files until this game, also for my phone I haven't had that setting on for a good while, so far this game is the only one I've had an issue installing. Don't mean to sound rude sorry.
WE MUST WAIT PATIENTLY WHEN THE GAME WILL BE FULLY RELEASED BROTHERS AND SISTERS 💪💪 (I ALSO LOVE THE DEMO AAA, I JUST CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW MUCH I LOVED PLAYING THIS GAME)
I love Emrys BUT CHIBI OML thank you for that gift to humanity. Also I love the cliffhanger I was asking so much after the end (which is good you got the reader hooked, guess someone payed attention to the intro paragraph of an essay)
Hello! No tests have been performed at this time since Steamdeck isn't on our immediate plans. But we may check it out in the future after the game's release.
hello!! so, so sorry to bother you guys, but i've found that the extended demo isn't functioning for mac(at least in my experience)! whenever i try to open the game, it gives an error message that the game "cannot be opened".
this has happened to me a couple other times with games i've downloaded, and it seems to be a different issue to the one you get where the system warns you that the game developer "cannot be verified"(which means that your system thinks it might be malware, it's usually mistaken), as with this issue, you can go right ahead and open up the game anyways. but with the "cannot be opened" error, i've yet to find a way to bypass it, unfortunately :(
interestingly enough, this didn't happen with the original demo! i'm not sure why the error wasn't present before, or why it is now, but i figured i'd let you all know!!
on a more positive note, i absolutely adored the original demo, and i'm super excited for the full release!! hope the rest of development goes smoothly :)
I have no idea how many times ive commented on this at this point.
Even still, uh, great game. give them your money (or dont but you totally should.)
Oh and the person/people who manage the patreon are so goofy and I love them. (Fanks for the condolences, patreon friend(s))
Jokes aside, both Royal Order and Royal Alchemist have helped me a lot with finding myself, and getting through some really depressive times. I am such a sucker for fantasy mage-esque older-setting stories. So if that's your cup of tea, this is absolutely worth the money. theyre written in such a way that the possibility of being the same gender as the LI you're pursuing doesnt feel like an afterthought like it does in so many others. Seriously, that's a weirdly prevalent issue in VN's where you can pick your gender. Itll use the right pronouns, sure, but it will describe it in a way that makes it sound like a heterosexual pairing, like in shitty fujoshi content that's explicitly made so girls can project themselves onto one of the guys. So i think it's really cool that Nifty Visuals doesn't do that. This turned into a rant and I am not sorry in the slightest.
can't wait for release!! this game is so stunning, and the plot has already got me completely hooked. the characters are so interesting and I'm so excited for when i'll be able to experience the story!! I'm already so attatched to all the love interests :')
i don't usually buy games beyond a certain budget (sorry im poor) but i'm willing to buy yours no matter what. this is not a game, this is a well crafted masterpiece that hooked me beyond imagination, i'm willing to forfeit all mortal possessions for it. is there a way for me to know when you release the full game for purchase?
Thank you so much for your kind words <3 We're really happy you enjoyed the demo and thank you so much for your support.
The full game is currently up for pre-order on our Itchio page! You will receive a small spoiler-free guide as a pre-order bonus once the game releases. The release is scheduled for the end of this year.

i NEED this in my life
UGH, I'm so excited for this! I wish it was February already 😫
When you first saw Royal Order, were you blinded by its majesty?
Blinded?
Paralyzed? Dumbstruck?
Happy New Year, everyone. And to the beautiful people behind this game:
I wish you a very successful release.
Hi!
I just downloaded the mac demo and i can't open it. It said "The application “RoyalOrderExtendedDemo” can’t be opened."
Odds are you have to right click and select open then wait for the pop up and choose open anyway (it's like that for most games that I DL these days)
yeah I did it the double click, still can't. Then the right click one and the open anyway window didn't even pop-up. I check the security also, can't find the program. I don't know what to do :')
Okay...WOW. I knew they said that there was going to be a plot twist, but none of that would have prepped me enough for the ending there
OMG, I know right? I was consumed by the intrigue of what the MC was hiding, and then BAM that last scene of the demo completely floored me!
I'm just curious, is it gonna be available on playstore?
Hello! We won't release it on Playstore for the time being. The Android version will be available here on Itchio though!
the game looks really good, but i cant find the folder unfortunately despite extracting like normal ):
Hello. If you Right Click > Extract All , do you have the option to select the destination and a tick-box to "Show the extracted files when complete"?
I don't ): I have these options:
- Open with WinRar
- Extract files
- Extract here (what I usually do)
Neither of them has an option to 'show the extracted files when complete' from what i could see. I usually do 'extract here' and the folder shows up in the same place, but the folder for this game didn't show up. when i try to extract again, though, it does say that the files are already existing
Can you please confirm if you put the downloaded .zip into an empty folder before extracting? Or are there other files in that folder?
(If there are, can you please try putting the downloaded .zip into an empty Windows folder before extracting?) Thanks!
Thank youu omg 😭
amazing
Thank you!
I haven't finished the demo yet, but this game seems great so far!

Thank you for playing!
(We assure you, the full game will still have a lot of references dedicated to Royal Alchemist players~)
nahh my jaw dropped at the end of the demo like i knew somethin was up but idk cant wait for the full game lol
Thank you!
Is this game 18+ with sexual content?
Hello! No, this game is rated PG :)

I deleted the "tl" folder but it is still showing the same message.
Alright. Thank you so much for checking! We'll need to take a deeper dive into this but we'll try our best to fix the issue soon.
omg I'm so happy that this game is about to come out next year!!!!! I still remember when I was totally down bad for Darryl that I replayed the demo everyday hbasjbj Best of luck with everything, I'm so excited<333.
Thank you so much! :D
Will my demo progress be reflected in the main game?
If the latest demo you've played is version 0.4, then yes! Your progress should be reflected in the main game.
When will this game be fully released?
The game is scheduled for the 31st January 2024 :D

100%d the demo a few days ago:
Man, this game's gonna be AWESOME, a worthy sequel to another great game.
Started playing Royal Alchemist yesterday, somehow ended up romancing Aurelius lmao
Can't wait for Jan 31st :3
Thank you so much for playing! Glad you enjoyed both this and the prequel.
aaa omg i remember playing this demo so so long ago but when i tried to get it again it won't open 💔 i'm just glad i got to play it at least once LMAO great game btw i can't wait till the full ver. is out #IRISLOVER #NUMBER1IRISFAN
Thank you so much!
(If you're playing on Mac, we're working on something that improves compability for the full release. We hope it will work then!)
Hello, I've tried to download the game on my Chromebook and phone,. wasn't able to open the .zip and then for my phone it said "there was a problem parsing the package" I dont know if its my fault some how as no one else seems to be having this problem. ;(
Hello! We haven't gotten this report before so it might be something on your end. Which version of Windows are you running? And are you downloading this through your browser or the Itchio app?
I used Linux for the Chromebook and downloaded from browser for my phone. Also thanks for the reply and sorry for the 9 hour wait :D
No worries!
If you are using Linux, are you able to open other .zip files? If you are unable to open other .zip files, there might be an error with your unzipping software or your system doesn't have one installed by standard.

It's all good, no worries! We've uploaded another demo version, zipped as .tar file. You can try and see if unzipping it works for you.
WOWWW
Oh goodness, I was going to replay the demo, thinking "Oh I should do some commissions so I can buy this when it comes out soon."
Imagine my happiness when I realize that I ALREADY DID like two years ago (Goodness, has it really been that long already?)
Time sure flies! And thank you for your support <3
Boobs this time! Yay! My disaster bi heart sings. <3
I'll get back at this!! Is this a demo for now? I wonder when the full release would come out if that's the case.
Thank you! Yes, only the demo is live right now. The full game is scheduled at the end of January 2024!
Cant wait till this comes Out!!, is there a set price yet?
Thank you so much! The full game is set at 28 USD :D
The game is so interesting and so many outcomes in a demo as well! I am so excited for the full game to be release, love the game! <3
Hello, sorry if anyone already answered this question but when is the game releasing ? It's such a great demo, I replay it almost every day

If you're using a Linux device, there are some suggestions that have been given by Linux users before in the install instructions.
WE MUST WAIT PATIENTLY WHEN THE GAME WILL BE FULLY RELEASED BROTHERS AND SISTERS 💪💪 (I ALSO LOVE THE DEMO AAA, I JUST CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW MUCH I LOVED PLAYING THIS GAME)

The art is so pretty, and Iris has my heart! I want to buy the game once it's fully released
Thank you!
And thank you for releasing a great game! Btw you guys sure know how to hang people, that was a great cliffhanger xD
Hello! Do you intend to add Steamdeck support, or have you tested if it runs natively anyway?
Hello! No tests have been performed at this time since Steamdeck isn't on our immediate plans. But we may check it out in the future after the game's release.
Thank you for replying! I'm eagerly looking forward to release anyway!

Thank you so much for your report! Could you please let us know your Mac OS version?
of course!! it's version 12.6.6 :) thank you for responding so quickly!!
Alright, thank you! We will try our best and work on a fix for that for the next update/release!
no problem!! hope everything goes well ^^
do you think the game would ever be available on iOS? T~T
Hello! We may look into iOS after the game's official release, but we cannot make any promises for the time being.
Ahh, I see, Well either way I look forward to seeing it if it does!
omg Darryl's ears being sensitive is such a nice detail! Makes me wanna tease them huehue
I have no idea how many times ive commented on this at this point.
Even still, uh, great game. give them your money (or dont but you totally should.)
