About a year ago The Rose Princess was announced.  Below you can read the inital description of the game:

The Rose Princess is a story about a cello player and her rabbit, which seems cute and harmless enough, but then the details start coming. The cellist in question is found one day by said rabbit, lying amidst a field of dead roses (yes roses grow on bushes, but it's a different world than we live in). The girl is cursed so that everything she touches dies. Luckily her newfound friend isn't quite a living thing. No, Mr. Cuddles is a failed entertainer machine...a mechanical bunny created to sing and dance who can do neither. Before I continue, let me warn you that Mr. Cuddles is about to get a lot less cute.

Being a failed mechanical creature, Mr. Cuddles was throw out with the trash, after which he turned to cross-dressing and prostitution to make money for a place to live and to support his growing alcohol and drug dependency. Yeah, it's getting a bit deep.

So the drug-addicted, alcoholic, cross-dressing prostitute mechanical rabbit meets the cello player who can kill with a touch, and together they go on a journey to find acceptance in a world that doesn't want them or fears them.

Okay so that was the description from last year.  Thing is, the game kind of fell off the planet after that, but the designer Luc Bernard seems like kind of an artsy designer dork so it doesn't seem that surprising.  But it looksl ike the game is back on track with a few changes.  Here's the latest updates directly from the game's designer:

Well, I should probably mention that Rose Princess was a game I had designed for my ex-girlfriend when we were still together. It was supposed to help launch her career, but now I'm not with her any more, I've decided to reassess Rose Princess and change the concept slightly, as well as altering the main character's appearance.

Now the game is set in Paris and plays very much like Konami's recent DS Castlevania titles. We are aiming for a kind of 'Moulin Rouge meets Looney Toons' feel.

The story involves a Pug cult, a mechanical rabbit with serious personal issues and a Princess who has the ability to kill humans with just a touch. I guess you could call it a unique concept!

Looney Tunes meets Moulin Rouge.  Yep, this is a game I gotta have.

Well it's got one major feature going for it that the DS titles do not.  It's on the Wii, not the DS.

A fact that you failed to mention, penis. It sounded more suitable for a handheld, though.

Coincidentally I've always thought your penis was more suitable as a DS stylus.

Original concept sounds much better. Sounds like he's making the new concept a bit more pallatable. 

Even so sounds awesome.
