Re: Please release Katawa Shoujo source code as free softwar

It's not about needing KS's source code. The idea behind the free software movement is that everything should be open source. Many of its advocates refuse to use any non-free software, so OP's problem is that they can't read KS, and can't recommend KS to each other. They're basically the vegans of c...

Re: Ask!

I understand there are different approaches. You can go sit on a stool or chair and take the prosthetics off, or have a different pair of prosthetics that are waterproof.

Re: Ask!

Aside from the Yamaku uniform which is from RAITA, everyone just competed to plug their favourite fetishes and what ended up being the final designs was based on who had the most tenacity, least opposition or the most popular fetishes. Writers and character artists had a big advantage, too.

Re: Ask!

As writers, was there any idea that you were so excited about when it popped up, that you spent time enthusiastically fleshing it out, only to have another member of the team slam the brakes on it with one of those "Um, am I really the only one who's going to point out that this is a really, r...

Re: Katawa Shoujo Steam Release

but it's better to have a censored version on Steam that none at all No, it's not. The integrity of KS's distribution and not having to bother ourselves with jumping through Steam's hoops is more valuable to us than whatever amount of exposition Steam distribution would result in. The correct reply...

Re: Ask!

Hive never put in the work necessary to figure out the Emi-Misha relationship so it fizzled out without getting anywhere. It's kind of a bummer because the story sure could've used character interplay that didn't involve Hisao. The amount of work would've been quite high though, so it's understandab...

Re: Ask!

The cut-off time was determined by trying out different intervals and seeing which felt the best. I think it's either going by delta's own feel or some sort of dev consensus.

Re: Ask!

Unless Steam changes their stance on adult content, the chances of KS getting on Steam are 0.

Re: Ask!

Well, Katawa Shoujo runs on an engine that was released before Windows 7. So, it's made it through two Windows updates and so far it seems to work okay so just hope for the best. We totally aren't going to patch KS if Win23 or OSX Three-Toed Sloth happens to not run it though.

Re: Ask!

1) We didn't try very hard to make the routes fit together, and as a result they are pretty inconsistent and/or disjointed. 2) Testing process goes like this: A) We build a release candidate. This is a complete version of the product that will get released if no faults are found. B) it is tested rep...

Re: Ask!

3) Did sometimes happened that some writer during the making of one route had a good idea/situation/dialogue, but that should have been discarded 'cause it will have been against the information provided into the already released Act1? Or to say it in other words, did you ever regretted/had problem...

Re: Do I want to see the bad/neutral endings?

Yeah because you're not a PUSSY. You can handle them, because you're a BOSS. If you can overcome the bad ends in Katawa Shoujo, you're ready to tackle any challenge in life. I believe in you.
