June & July 2024 Broadcast


Dear citizens of the Suzerainverse,

With the sun shining brightly and summer in full swing, we are delighted to greet each of you.

In this special June and July broadcast, we are eager to bring you the latest and most exciting updates that have taken place across our vibrant nation over the past month!



Rizia Updates

In June, we launched Rizia's largest update, version 3.0.9, which brought significant polish and new content thanks to our team's hard work and your invaluable feedback. We're committed to further enhancing Rizia with more content and improvements.

Our team focuses on update 3.1.0, which is set to introduce fresh dialogues, narrative expansions, and design improvements, including significant additions to the war feature with an aircraft expansion. We're also addressing existing issues and reported bugs - be sure to continue sending bug reports via Discord.

Mobile Updates

On the mobile front, adapting the war feature for touch controls proved challenging and took longer than expected, but are on track for full compatibility. Feedback and insights received from Google Indie Accelerator mentors also guide our in-game balancing and mobile interface improvements.

Additionally, we finalized our hybrid monetization strategy and are balancing the new freemium experience alongside the existing premium experience to offer affordable and fair ways to enjoy Suzerain on mobile regardless of where people are around the world. More details on this will be shared in our next broadcast.

Suzerain Mobile Testing Volunteer Sign-up

We're excited to announce the upcoming Suzerain mobile test, and we need your help! If you're interested in becoming a volunteer tester, please complete the sign-up form linked above.

Your participation and feedback are invaluable to us, and we're grateful for your interest in contributing to this exciting journey.


In July, Ata, Suzerain’s Managing Director and Co-founder, attended the Google Indie Games Accelerator program's graduation event and the Google I/O conference in Bangalore, India to support the development of Suzerain on mobile platforms.

The Torpor Games team is honored to be among the 60 participants selected from 7,000 applicants, and receiving the graduation plaque from Purnima Kochikar, VP of Google Play Games and Apps, was a highlight. We are excited to apply this newfound knowledge to bring more challenging and thought-provoking experiences to life!

And that's not all! We have a little surprise to celebrate this milestone and reconnect with our community!

It's been too long since we've had a conversation with you, so we are thrilled to announce a Town Hall Q&A session focused on mobile development and answering any general questions on Wednesday 14th of August at 7 pm CET in our Discord server.

Be sure to join our Discord server to participate and we look forward to chatting with you and answering your questions!


Thank you to everyone who participated in the collectible contest. We received great original proposals and truly appreciate your creativity and effort. Unfortunately, we can only select one...for now.

After collecting your votes, one collectible stood out. Although the competition was close between two entries, one winner emerged.
Drumroll, please... The winner of the collectible contest is... Lucita's dagger!

We've received an excellent idea for implementation, but it will take some time to incorporate it into the content. Let's keep it as a surprise for the moment.

Congratulations to Zak Hayden! The portrait will be integrated into the next 3.1 patch update. In addition, you will receive the "Artist of the Suzerainverse" role on Discord and an invitation to the next early testing round.

Once again, thank you all for your participation and creativity!



And before we wrap up, we’re excited to share the amazing caricature portraits of the characters from The Kingdom of Rizia, crafted by the talented Sieger Charlie. To see more of his work, be sure to visit his portfolio here.

Until the next update, take care!

Google Accelerator & Q&A


Dear citizens of the Suzerainverse,

Last week, Ata, Suzerain’s Managing Director and Co-founder, attended the Google Indie Games Accelerator program's graduation event and the Google I/O conference in Bangalore, India to support the development of Suzerain on mobile platforms. This was Ata’s first trip to India, and he shared, "Bangalore and India blew me away. The energy, the colors, the spirituality, the ambition, and the kindness of the people were all incredibly inspiring. Bharat is racing towards a new era, and it was fantastic to experience a piece in time of that and to learn about the basics of socio-political reality."


The Torpor Games team is honored to be among the 60 participants selected from 7,000 applicants, and receiving the graduation plaque from Purnima Kochikar, VP of Google Play Games and Apps, was a highlight. "Though our time together as a cohort was short, it was incredibly impactful for me and our company," Ata added. We are excited to apply this newfound knowledge to bring more challenging and thought-provoking experiences to life!

Ata expressed heartfelt gratitude to Erika Tabotabo-Rodriguez, Marcus Foon, and the entire organizing team, saying, "It felt like we crammed a year's worth of mobile development knowledge into 10 intense weeks."

And that's not all! We have a little surprise to celebrate this milestone and reconnect with our community!

It's been too long since we've had a conversation with you, so we are thrilled to announce a Town Hall Q&A session focused on mobile development and answering any general questions on Wednesday 14th of August at 7pm CET in our Discord server.
