Exactly one year ago today, Sort the Court was first released. It started out on itch.io, and later was also uploaded here on Gamejolt. Sort the Court was originally built in 72 hours for the Ludum Dare game jam, but over the last year we’ve released numerous updates, expanding it into a fully-fledged game.

Sort the Court has come such a long way, and we’re so glad to have been able to share it with so many awesome people. Thank you for playing, and for your comments, videos, and kind messages - it means a lot to us that our cute little jam game has managed to grow and reach so far.

Here are the patch notes for version 2.2.0:

• You can now play as a Queen! When starting a new game, you can choose to play as a King or Queen. This doesn’t change anything other than your appearance, voice, and what words characters will use when referring to you.

• Added some sound effects to the menus.

• Fixed highlight graphics of some UI elements.

• The Wizard won’t offer to help with certain quests if he was banished.

• Fixed other small bugs and typos.
