Long Live the Queen

Happy New Year

Happy Holidays from Hanako Games! We hope that the new year will bring us all opportunities and better times than what has come before.

2024... it sounds very futuristic, doesn't it? What better time for a princess of the stars?

I know some of you have been wondering for a while what's going on with Galaxy Princess Zorana. Simple answer: a LOT of writing got done, a lot of artwork is now being done, expect more formal announcements early next year as things come together. But the more exciting answer...



(This is still not final art! This just gives you some idea of things that are being played with at the moment as we try to work out how the displays should look.)

Of course, while all that is happening...



You can still pick up this game, and all the rest of our creations, at a discount as part of the Winter Sale or the Hanako Games Collection.

Last day for the Steam Summer Sale 2023!

This is the final day for big discounts on Long Live The Queen and other titles!



Extra discounts available if purchased with other Hanako Games titles. Enjoy!

As for the project in development, if you follow the Hanako Games Patreon, a few pictures of our next princess have been posted in the top secret tier. Still holding off on public reveals until some actual GUI is ready so that proper-looking screenshots can be made (so far we've been designing TONS of different characters and writing, writing, writing, writing. So many wacky plotlines possible based on who you choose to pursue as an ally!)

Winter Sale 2022

Happy Christmas to all who celebrate!

This year has come with many highs and lows. For this game specifically, we celebrated our 10-year anniversary, put out a bunch of exciting bonus art, released the console version, and talked about the sequel in development... and Queen Elizabeth died, making the theme song now officially "God Save The King."

If you're interested in finding out more secrets from the behind-the-scenes development of the future Princess Zorana, visit the hanakogames patreon. But fear not, all good things come to those who wait and with luck we'll have more public to say about the game next year! (Right now it's mostly writing, writing, writing, writing, which doesn't make for interesting pictures to show off.)



Long Live The Queen and all other Hanako Games titles are now on discount for the Steam Winter Sale. Enjoy!

Compatibility update for Steam Deck and other OSes

We've put out a small update addressing some compatibility issues related to recent Steam DLL changes.

This should only affect Linux, Mac, and Steam Deck users. Windows users build numbers will not update.

See this thread for more information: https://steamcommunity.com/app/251990/discussions/0/6682809959402975006/

If you were having crash problems earlier, please try this build and see if it's fixed. If you're having any other difficulties with the game please let us know!



In other news, the console version of LLTQ is currently discounted on most stores for the Christmas sale, so if you haven't already picked that up, now is a great time to score a bargain! As for the Steam sales, well, hold tight, that's coming soon...
