Ask!

[cpl_crud]

Ok thank you for the answer, just that as I read this article cpl_crud: https://cplcrud.wordpress.com/2012/05/21/regrets/

I suposse it varies opinions, always interesting to see the opinions of each author when it's possible.

Holy shit, someone reads my blog.

The post here is more about the fact that because we included sex, it is a little harder to bring up the topic in normal conversation.

Since that post I have mentioned KS to other board members and colleagues. No one has disowned me as yet, so my fears and regrets were unfounded - as they usually are.

This is an important life lesson...

I've always felt it to be a great gift to the 'fandom' here that the devs (at this time, the most recent being cpl_crud) drop in and entertain our questions and ideas and stuff. While Aura is the main respondent, I am always happy to see engagement, even if it is brusque or contrary. It makes me even happier to be part of this community. But one question I'd like to ask now is (if you wish to answer it): how have you devs changed in life direction and status since you finished KS? We've just had a brief outline of cpl_crud's life changes (from his blog and his latest replies).

I got a Master's degree, lived in New York for a while, spent several awful months unemployed and desperate, and ended up writing for a tech company in its marketing department in Chicago. I also started a podcast...thing with my brother and will probably wind up starting another soon, because why not.

So I went from being a poor student to having an actual income and job that only sometimes makes me want to burn down the office, which is a good change.

Oh, sure. Flaunt your luck harder, won't you?

It's stated that the canes are retractable, so one could argue that they're not fully extended in the in-game graphics.

Well Sunglasses Boy's cane definitely isn't retractable. Nor is it a support cane.

As for Lilly's cane, it's never completely visible (in fact it doesn't show up in any CGs or videos at all). The part that shows up in the sprites has no visible joins or gaps, but I suppose it could be a telescoping cane with the first join below the screen.

Am I to assume that the lack of an answer

means that the question has no good answer or one we don't want to reveal. Move on.

?

Pretty sure it's not the second one, and I'm not sure why it's the first one. If it was a mistake, you could just say so.

[TheHivemind]

The answer is we don't care.

[cpl_crud]

The answer is we don't care.

Seconded.

Also for some reason this dictionary has "Second Life" in it.

how out of date

*grin* well, I'm a sucker for a happy ending, and I can only wish all of you the best that you can get.

Is there an estimate on how many times the game has been downloaded?

[Aura]

Most likely of the order of hundreds of thousands.

I can't speak for Sunglasses Boy, but as for Lilly, she would of course have only the very best telescoping cane that would make it hard to see the joints. Even so, the joint probably is below the screen since we can clearly see in this leaked security camera photo of the last known sighting of agent Kenji that it would not be able to be collapsed too much without interfering with it's other purpose.

Or maybe the devs just haven't thinked about it, like they have said a lot of times ?

[Atario]

Which dev is responsible for "crawls in my balls"?

[Aura]

Probably A22, possibly me.
