The stuff that got thrown out was thrown out for a reason, so I can't really miss it except for some comic nostalgia for the more bizarre stuff. We were just digging through our old texts yesterday with some 4LS devs and laughing our asses off at how bad they were.
<Aura> would you squeeze a warm PVC bottle between your thighs and call it "manaka-chan"
<Suriko> I would do it if it wouldn't be so hard to explain to my parents

I read Forest a few months back. I haven't read many visual novels in a couple of years now. Nothing seems to catch my interest.

Aura i noticed at around the time a demo was released it was put on Fakku and you had a Q & A thread. Was this game going to be more oriented with sex scenes to appeal to the h-game demographic, or did it always have so much feels and actually not even be that explicit?

Also have you seen any Katawa Shoujo doujinshi before?

To the first question: In the game's infancy it was going to have a lot more sex. By the time we did the Fakku thread things were a lot closer to the way the final game turned out, but the folks at Fakku were interested and we figured at the time that a little Q & A wouldn't hurt. We always figured our potential audience was a lot smaller, and unsurprisingly the demographics between 'people who normally play VNs' and 'people who frequent Fakku' are pretty similar. The fact that a bunch of other people found the game later on, well, that's one of those things that happened unexpectedly.

As for the second question, I'm pretty sure there's some pages of some kinda KS comic on the shimmie that involves Misha growing a dick. Don't quote me on that, I only half pay attention to most of the stuff on the shimmie.

Indeed. I remember reading that one. Unfortunately, it was quite disturbing. Safe to say I'm never googling futanari again.

To follow this up, what was the most off the wall idea to get shot down?

It's the latter.
There's in thing in Cruddy's blog about it somewhere.
It was a bad end where Hanako killed Hisao with a well-aimed shove or something.
That being said, I'd like some more of the context behind what caused it.

Is there a donation/donate option/function implemented?

I could probably word that better, but I think you get my meaning.

Great game, too many feels.

It's in the FAQ. As much as everybody wants more VNs from 4LS, they're not planning anything sadly. Ah, well.
