What is Vanguard Princess?
Vanguard Princess is a FULLY FREEWARE Doujin (Homebrew/Indie) 2D fighting game created by a single guy called Sugeno who was released on June 30 2009. The style of the game is a wacky combination between "old skool mechanism" and assist support, all combined with the "all-loved by SRK" loli characters! ANIME!. VP was created on Fighting Maker 2nd, a Japanese "fighting engine" just like MUGEN but with a lot of more support and possibilities.
Screenies please?:
Official Flyer.
Holy mother of f*ck, this game is f*cking beautiful!
Indeed!, this game got a lot of attention because of his pretty awesome sprite work and backgrounds. According to Canned Dogs Sugeno was "supposedly an ex-capcom employee as according to what people have managed to dug up about him", this hasn’t confirmed yet anyway, but still...
So what requirements i need?
Very, VERY low specs:
OS: MS - Windows 98/Me/2000/XP Japanese Edition (or Japanese Locale).
CPU : Pentium III 400MHz.
Memory: 128MB.
HDD: 400MB Free Space, DirectX 7 required.
So this **** is Freeware? URL plz!!111
You got it:
Version 1.01 Download Link
Help! the game doesn’t start on my PC
Vanguard Princess NEEDS your Windows regional configuration for non-unicode programs in Japanese. For change that go to Control Panel -> Regional and Language Settings -> Administrative -> Change the Unicode language to Japanese (thx Lolerskates for this). Some people also tested the game with AppLocale or NTLEA and some times it’s seems to work but with some bugs, like unreadable fonts or no music. Also running the game on the root of C:\ seems to work to some random people.
Every name in this game is in Japanese (Hiragana), who is who?

Does Vanguard Princess have "Online Mode"?
Believe it or not someone is now working on a netplay program: LunaPort.

Download (version R36) - http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?uaneziamm3z
After a lot of research LunaPort finally works decent, still with some issues, but works just fine. Give a try.
Does Vanguard Princess have "Training Mode"?
Yes! when you are on a fight in VS Mode press the P button and them the E button, bizarre method but it was the only way to do a training mode on Fighting Maker.

Anyways --- Vanguard Princess is a really fun game -- you should try it out right away ..
Just think of it as a semi-toned down version of BlazBlue for the PC for all you PC Elitists (jk) and for those people in need of something other than SFIV // Tekken for once --
Check this shiz out yo.
Have fun playing.
