Once upon a time, in the Kingdom of A, Princess A was about to sit down for a nice breakfast when a message arrived. The princess of Kingdom B has been kidnapped! Quickly she finished her eggs and toast and dashed out the castle gate, eager to come to the lady's rescue.

At the exact same time, Princess B was indulging in her morning lager when she too received a message. Someone has kidnapped Princess A! Without hesitation, she swigged down the rest of her beverage and began her quest to save the fair damsel!

And so began Princess A and Princess B's long, epic journey to rescue... each other.

Princess Panic! is the title of a 2-d yuri game based heavily on the mechanics of Paper Mario and other such platformer/adventure/RPG hybrids. Lots of action, silliness, puzzles, and romance will be involved. At the start of the game, the player follows the quest of each princess in an alternating fashion, and with each chapter, their journeys become more and more interlinked, to the point where the princesses find themselves depending on each other without even knowing it.

As yet, this is an idea blog, and production has yet to be started. It is way too early say if it will go beyond that, but who knows. Stranger things have happened.

The creator and owner of this blog is Josh L, whose previous work was a webcomic named Girly. If you're familiar with that comic you may know what kind of thing to expect here. Any artists, programmers, developers, publishers, and all interested parties can contact him at his email / facebook / twitter

Well, it’s been a while since we’ve done one of these, isn’t it?

While John and Severin have been working on Dungeon Panic I’ve mostly been off in the corner adding bits and pieces to Princess Panic. I’m still pretty confident it will be a thing someday. Enjoy this little bit of Brittany, whose character I recently started working on.

We got some more Kickstarter goodies to show!

These are the sticker sheets for the princesses, which many of you will be getting. It includes sticker versions of some of my earlier PrinPan art (with a bit of cleanup and added colors) as well as some new drawings by Severin.

Put them on your laptop. It’ll be a great way to make friends!

NOW PLAYING - the Dungeon Panic backer comic! As y’all may recall, all backers get access to this, even the ones who pledged a buck!
Right now we’ll be finishing and posting a page weekly as a series of Backer-only Kickstarter updates, located right over here. Once it’s over, we’ll create a PDF version and send a link in a message to all the backers. Since we promised an extra page for every $500 pledged after the goal, the total size of the comic will be 20 pages! This means that with the deadlines we’ve made, the game should be out before the comic ends.
If you’d like to see the comic, but didn’t get a chance to back the project, we’re considering a few things, like making the PDF available for a few bucks on Gumroad once it’s done and selling print versions at cons.
Hope everyone had a good holiday. We’ll be back pretty soon!

Coming up for the $12000 stretch goal: Princess A’s Castle Basement Dungeon Extravaganza! Princess A herself has invited you for a visit. Apparently there have been… noises coming up from below the castle, and Princess A wants you to investigate! Someone… or someTHING has been busy down here, creating legions of undead junk food minions. Help Princess A clean them out, and discover the source of this high-calorie conundrum. Only 23 hours left on the clock, can you help push us over the edge so we get to design this dungeon disaster?
Now’s your last chance to back Dungeon Panic!

Only 3 days left? Where does the time go!
Let’s get right to it. 
BURGERMANCERS

The Burgermancers descend from the tall peaks of Borealis, spreading fear among fast food vendors far and wide, descending on hapless burgers in the dead of night and draining them of life. To execute their mysterious plans, the Burgermancers can raise legions of loyal undead burgers straight from the ground. And should the Burgermancer need to cross vast distances or make a quick escape, he or she can even turn into a flying burger. Burgermancers are cold and distant, typically absent from everyday society, but make for powerful allies.
STICKERS
Along with the Fairy stickers that were posted earlier, we will be sending out sticker packs of Princess A and Princess B. Alas, these won’t be finished before the Kickstarter ends, but we do have some progress to show!

Art by Severin!
NEW TIER!
Interested in having your likeness appear in the game? Back the new “You’re a Star” tier, and when the Kickstarter ends we’ll ask for a photo and/or description of you and we will draw your likeness as an NPC or monster! (your choice!). This is the last new tier we’ll be adding to the Kickstarter. Get it while it’s hot.
We are more than happy about doubling our goal, while at the same time, pretty determined to reach the big $10k. We’re so close that we can taste it. It tastes like burgers. And even with only a few days left, the pie-in-the-sky stretch goal of $15k isn’t out of the question either. We can do it! Let’s go! Burgers!
THIS IS THE FINAL BATTLE! GOOD LUCK!
BURGERS!

My first time animootin’ with photoshop. I’m so used to traditional hand drawn animation but I really enjoy this. I did something super simple just to test the waters.
It’s the dashing and adorable Princess A from the awesome game (or soon to be?) Princess Panic/Princess Princess! Check out all the sweet concepts at http://prinpan.tumblr.com/

hoho… it occured to me we haven’t reblogged any guest art in a while, so I went through the princess panic tag to see what else we may have missed. Turns out there’s quite a bit!
This one (which I chose since it’s reflective of my current state) is by Stephanie Mided, who has a lot of other cool stuff on her tumblr.

Exactly how “mature” the game will be is still undecided! However, right now the consensus is that there will not be nudity.

Introducing Shortpach! Qwilman came up with the initial idea, then several members of the team took a crack at the design. This is my final take.
Bwee!

Visual development for the game is still ongoing. Josh’s style will feature heavily, of course, but there’s no reason to stop there. Myself and the other artists have been busy exploring some of the possibilities for how the game could look. For one thing, it’s undecided at this point which parts of the game, if any, will be 3D, which is why I tried a blocky, three dimensional look with parts of this concept piece.

yourghosthost:

My version of The Foresty Forest from Josh L.’s Princess Panic!
He had two, great looking versions, and I couldn’t decide which I wanted to draw, so I combined them. It came out a bit more Blairsian than I was expecting… Then again, my art always does…

This is a very imaginative take on Josh’s initial Foresty Forest concept! It provided some inspiration for a recent round of concept art, especially with the playful shapes and lack of outlines.

been stalking the Princess Slash Princess blog for a while and i thought, why not fuckin tell people this thing is a thing that exists/will exist/who knows?

guys, I want this game to come out so badddd. The plot, the princesses & fairies, the designs are too awesome to just go to waste, guys.

I absolutely love Princess A’s hair in this picture! It’s everywhere.

Nothing will go to waste! Unless it’s bad, in which case we don’t want it.
