Katawa Shoujo Forums

At the risk of seven years bad luck for commenting on unfinished work...this is pretty obviously unfinished work. Given that, I can't really give a fair critique of either one. However, I will say that I'm glad neither of these made it into the finished product. While the proto-Rin story could have ...

Goes through life blissfully unaware of these things called visual novels Randomly surfs through TV Tropes Sees several pages with this game featuring disabilities at random Thinks "I wonder if any of the other blind gamers know about it" Forgets about the game for months Gets really bored one night...

This felt like another one of those "writing exercise" stories, where Mirage wanted to write a certain story so he bent the characters into a shape that would fit it. Not nearly as good as Katawa Kijo , but I didn't find anything remarkably bad about it. I have no idea who some of these other charac...

Well, thanks to this getting necro'ed, I finally got around to reading it. This story was definitely off to a solid start, and honestly the part that was written could stand on its own without any additional material. It would have been interesting to see where it might have gone once one gets to th...

It's odd, because I saved the Hanako/Lilly dyad for last. I knew almost nothing about VNs, so I did not have any concept of what the related tropes were. Lilly was the one I thought I might know the best, so I wanted to save her for last. My first play-through I tried to figure out what someone like...

Very, very nice, Dewelar. Thanks! (Sorry I haven't been around to comment on your last few chapters—getting out of the military is distracting, and this is the first time I’ve had the energy to begin posting again.) *nods* I think this is the first I knew that you were in the military. That...would...

Well, I'm still alive. This is a post to announce that I've been getting some work done on this; namely, I made a few edits to the last chapter (well 900 more words,) which is sort of my ritual whenever I come back from hiatus, because I always find stuff I can't stand after a few months of distanc...

but when I first read it I got more of a "damning with faint praise" vibe Really? How so? It's true, there aren't as many pirst-person interpretations of Rin, but they are a lot harder to write than stories where she only appears as a side character, so I felt adding the distinction would not deval...

Emi sighs the sigh that people do You missed the chance to use "sigh" thrice in one sentence ;-) Yes. Yes I did. Seriously, this is one of the best (first-person) interpretations of Rin that I've read so far. I know you meant that as a compliment, but when I first read it I got more of a "damning w...

I know, I plan to. (: Hmmm...bad form. You probably should have gotten it before posting about it. However, if/when you do get permission from the devs to do this, I'm sure you'll find an ample supply of volunteers. I'd probably be interested in helping out. ...So...You're writing a KS novel or som...

If you haven't, you might want to clear this with the devs first. Posting it four times probably won't help your cause, though .

First of all, as always, thanks to all for the kind (and not-necessarily-kind) words! I honestly had no idea what the reception to this chapter would be, but it was one of those things that, I felt, could only be done the way it was. Now that was one hell of a tour-de-force. It's not normally possib...

Hello out there. Welcome back, I think I should say, but I don't think all of you were here when this story landed here by accident last time. I know some of you were, though, now that I remember that that happened. As far as I know, there wasn't any damage that time, but maybe what got damaged was ...

More importantly, it's against the forum rules to do this. See this post. If you want to write something, write it!

Is it bad that I actually thought the neutral ending was the best ending? Hisao gets to ditch Rika, and he gets a shot at an Emi route. Honestly, I actually struggle to believe the good ending, and suspect that Rika's fatalism isn't actually cured by Hisao's magical healing wand of emotions. She's ...
