That's really not surprising actually. Visual novels are a pretty limited medium, and god knows even anime (the majority of it anyway) could get awfully boring after a while if it weren't for all the pretty visuals, since it tends to be so formulaic. Not to mention the extremely high crap-to-gold r...

This was really touching ^_^ Took me a bit to figure out it was from Shizune's point of view, though ">_> Probably says more about me than the writings, though :P Actually, hiding the narrator is something I like to do in short KS stories. I think most of them employ the method. A habit, or style, ...

Kenji is not a scrapped idea. Shinji is.

Can't really say that the things we have chosen to not include in the game were scrapped because they are too cool for KS.

In before someone makes a VN with Shinji as the main character.

If you're talking about ideas for other stories in general, sure we got dozens of them.

It's not that our lives are boring, but we'd have to kill you if you find out who we actually work for.

Well, everyone is free to conduct themselves as they will on the internet. If some KS fans were to exchange a/s/ls and addresses, hook up, have steamy cripple cosplay sex, find out that they are in fact wonderful people, fall in love, get married, have children and play KS with them every day, that'...

Hahahaha you kidding nigga. Creepiest post of the month.

We know about each other more than you know about us, but less than we know about most of our real life friends (I think). We are friends on the internet. Who we are outside of our KS dev work is none of your business.

If we're talking about making VNs only, going pro would be insanely unrealistic in general, in addition to the fact that this is just something we do as a hobby. The market for them is tiny and ridden with rampant piracy. If we're talking about writing/arting/musicing/etc as a profession, well that'...

good time to repost this

I find myself agreeing with this.

We aren't against it as such, in fact at least I vastly prefer a more coherent overarching story (Saya no Uta, though it's kinda extreme case. The Dreaming is a good one too) than a parallel universe style paths that diverge heavily (KS). However it's much harder to pull off, even if you'd be satisf...

January 08, so this was some months after that was scrapped. Whether you still thought it was a good idea, I couldn't say.

I seem to remember hearing that Aura came up with a basic outline that everyone else went from, but are we talking about shared plot milestones or was it more of a basic "Yamaku has a festival here, field trips here, exams here" kind of thing? For Act 1 only. The path scenarios are by their respect...

No, the poll has been around for ages and the manipulation happened some time after Act 1 release, but I can't remember exactly when. I bet there is a post or two about it though so read through the thread and see.

Fwiw, before the poll was manipulated, Hanako was in the lead and Rin in second place.
