How the time flies by! 11th July 2016 – that's when Lion Quest first launched on Steam and that was now a whole ten years ago. To celebrate this milestone I'm doing a mini retrospect on the game, including a behind-the-scenes look at what it was like to make a game in the mid-2010s.

A wild patch appears. Lion Quest version 1.6.7 includes the following:New resolution optionsThe internal system that determines which resolutions are available and swaps between them has been re-written to resolve a multitude of small bugs and annoyances. This means:Support for windowed resolutions greater than 1080p and additional fullscreen resolutions too. The availability of these is set dynamically based on the screen size (so on a 1080p monitor the selector maxes out at 1080x1920px and you don't see UHD, 4K etc.).There's a new lookup that sets the default fullscreen resolution when the g

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25305482/4704abbf088c3474e5d919e1fa42b103eb1ff81f.png ...And we're back. Lion Quest returns with a new update for 2023 and yes, it's been a while. I've been sorting out a couple of bugs that were bugging me with this game and now here we are. Lion Quest 1.5.0 is live and here's what has changed: All switches swapped to pinhweels. In terms of mechanical changes, this is the most notable improvement to the game.
