Katawa Shoujo Forums

The blog post stated, "Something that has really blown us off our feet has been the large amounts of incredibly emotional response to Katawa Shoujo that we've seen. I've seen people confessing having cried after playing KS, or otherwise feeling moved... I mean, if even one single person's life ...

I have seen any number of promising fan projects fall apart. It's kind of amazing that more than a handful of things which fans do together actually reach completion. Especially when people can't or won't charge money for the final product. I'm still surprised that Katawa Shoujo did not become a pay...

So what about something that actually has a good story and interesting setting? Started thinking about what I've been reading lately which I can recommend. Keep in mind that I don't take games and fiction especially seriously. If I start it up on my computer or console, then I'm already halfway to ...

My interest can probably be traced all the way back to the early 90s, when I first read about visual novels in a Nin...

I figured I'd finally join the Katawa Shoujo forum in order to discuss this topic. Hopefully my reply won't be TL;DR, or a double post... Right now, there is only a modest number of people reading and creating visual novels in English. Fandom is smaller than anime/manga fandom, and much smaller than...
