Howdy, Bounty Hunters!

We’ve got two exciting updates to share today:
LONESTAR has sold over 100,000 copies!
And it just received a 32/40 (8/8/8/8) in Famitsu Weekly, earning the Gold Award!

When we first started this project 4 years ago, all we wanted was to make a game we truly loved. We never imagined that LONESTAR would be embraced by so many players around the world.

Thank you all so much for your support!

It’s because of you that our massive studio (3 cats, 1 dog, and 2 relatively unimportant developers) can keep running. In short, we’ve broken even!

We’ll keep making the games we love, and of course, more content for LONESTAR is on the way.

May everyone find a game they truly love to play!

Greetings, Bounty Hunters!

A major update for the English localization is now live!

[h3]​​Dev Notes:​​[/h3]

After we posted the call for English text improvements, lots of players signed up.
We chose Poimen, a native English speaker and experienced player, to help with the optimizations.

Over the past weeks, Poimen carefully improved texts for Units, Treasures, Talents, Keywords, and more.
LONESTAR has a huge amount of text. This took Poimen lots of time and effort.
A big thanks to Poimen for his hard work!

Many community players also gave great suggestions for the English text improvements.
Thank you all!

Greetings, Bounty Hunters!

[h3]Optimization & Adjustments:​​[/h3]

1. Clue Events will now appear during Vacation after the first two bosses in Difficulty 9.
   
2. Random Talent - Vacation Refresh will also trigger Clue Events after bosses in Difficulty 9.
   
3. Event - Dice Energy Resource has been boosted to 1-7 points.
   
4. The "Back" button has been changed to "Cancel" when choosing Units/Treasures in Events.

Some players mentioned Clue Events were still too rare, so we've increased their appearance rate to give you more choices.

Last week, after posting about English text improvements, we received many applications. We've selected a native English-speaking veteran player to help optimize the text. You shall see the English text updates soon!

Thanks to all players! Your support is what helps LONESTAR keep getting better!
