Vanguard Princess was almost fully developed by Tomoaki Sugeno (or Suge9), an ex-Capcom programmer and sprite designer who worked in games like Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and made character sprites for The King of Fighters EX: Neo Blood. Sugeno uses Fighter Maker 2nd for his work, a popular graphic engine for Windows by ASCII. Sugeno programmed, illustrated and designed the game by himself, but the music was taken from "nash music library", a GNU library of songs.[5] Sugeno also resorted to voice actors for recording the voices for all the characters.
After the official release, Vanguard Princess was initially picked up on by video game websites such as Daiken,[6] Kotaku [7] and Siliconera.[8] Later it was reported by Famitsu[9] and IT+Media.[10]
