Do you like where the forum community is going? It seems to change around a lot when it comes to how it interacts and such. Hell, it seems completely different from when I joined a few months back let alone 2 years ago when it was probably mostly the dev team and people helping out.

You get my standard answer to a question about future projects. If we make one, we will announce it when we decide to announce it.
I would also like to add that from a bigger team "a better experience" does not necessarily follow. In fact, I'm fairly sure that a bigger team would have spelled the death of KS.

I agree, Maybe even add more animations? Routes? (Misha, Miki, etc.) But this time, Make it cost some money, Enough people would buy the game/dlc that it would make it worth it.
Just some thoughts.

The fandom community is not for me, it's for the fans themselves so I don't really have an opinion on that. I don't even read the forums much at all, nor do I have a particularly clear picture of where the community is going. There's a lot of circling around the same old topics I guess, which is sort of boring, but also something to be expected? It doesn't bother me though, talk about what you like.

Still baffles me how honest you are sometimes, Aura. So used to sugarcoated answers from devs.

On an unrelated note, are there any VNs in development right now you are looking forward too? Can't seem to find any myself.

Somehow you remind me to Joshua Graham from Fallout New Vegas : Honest Hearts.

Hanako's route is alot shorter Timeline-wise compared to Lilly's. Due to them being somewhat intertwined, Shouldn't they both go to the same point in time? Is there a reason why Hanako's route was shorter?

It was an indie project, don't nitpick. Nitpicking isn't fun.


Ok maybe slightly, but not with this.

There is no reason they should be of same length.

I only figured that because of the visit to the Summer House, And afterwards, It seemed like Hanakos path would've gone on to at least the Summer house and Lilly's (Possible) Moving away.

Question Number 2: If the chance arises where a large enough company or group or sorts would like to make KS into an Anime, Would you accept the offer? Such things have been done with VN's in the past, So it seems like a high enough possibility.

We have a FAQ already. I don't really care enough to collect the most repeated questions somewhere.

Not a question that can be answered with a yes or no. Depends on the specifics.
