April Fools Update (can be disabled)
Hello Kings & Queens, It is April Fools today, so I figured to celebrate the 1 week since launch for Le Château, I would make this super cozy experience temporarily a super intense experience; a clicker game. Place buildings like how you always would. But...keep clicking them

👑Greetings Kings & Queens👑
Special announcement today! Development has been going strong, and some cool new features have been added, but even better is that SOON™ you'll be able to experience them yourself!
Le Château will be taking part in the upcoming Steam Next Fest where upcoming games are celebrated by having thousands of demos available to play. This means that Le Chateau will have a demo of its own!
I've been working hard to make it happen (and to see what even works as a demo for a game like this one), and in the end I decided to make it come down to this:

1 hour of playtime (it's a lot, I believe, so you should be fine! Infinite just seemed too much for this game)
2 out of 3 world shapes are available
20 available tiles (17 of which will have to be unlocked by playing: specifics will be shared through a guide probably)
This should all be enough to allow you to make breathtaking kingdoms without feeling restricted to the available features.
I still have some other features in mind to add later, and a bunch of tiles that would be cool to add, but of course that will be for the full version, which I'm hoping to release later this year.
Feel free to ask any questions, I'll gladly answer them!

Different world shapes
Hi everyone! Something exciting to share about Le Château: I recently got curious if it would be cool to have more options for world shapes, and the answer was a big yes !! Besides the default square shaped world, I've also added a diamond, and a circle shaped world. They size di
