is that the one that looks like Emi's mom?

956 Consensus is that she's a teacher. A hot one at that.

Congrats on reaching the finishing line guys, I can't imagine what you must be feeling. Can't wait to play it.

And this is where site activity takes a nosedive until January 4th, now that people have the blog post they were waiting for.

Congratulations 4LS! You fine folks have done your fans proud this day! Upon it's arrival I shall play this game to 110% completion in your honor.

It's funny since this morning I checked the blog and didn't see any updates. Then I saw the tweet on my break at work. Glad I was alone in the break room since having to explain the noises I made would've been weird...

Of course I'm on vacation starting on the 3rd, but this gives me a reason to bring my laptop

Thank you very much for announcing the release date! I absolutely cannot wait for this day to arrive! Thank you very, very much for all your hard work, everyone involved!

Katawa Shoujo will release on January 4, 2012.

Of course, 2012 is not 2011, and we do apologise for that. The date of 4 January was selected in order to coincide with the fifth anniversary of the /a/ sticky that started this project, and will see the release of the full version of the game.

We thank you for your patience in waiting for the game to be completed, especially those who have contributed to the game's development. It's been a long ride, but the end is finally near.

This blog post just now cured my Erectile dysfunction. Thank you, KS-Devs.

My body is ready like never before.

I've been following the game since I was in grade 9 (thankfully didn't make an account till after highschool because of derp) so seeing it so near to completion is wonderful; hope everyone on the dev team and fans have fantastic holidays!

Awesome!! I've been waiting for this! Nothing will stop me from enjoying this graphic novel... Except an unexpected apocalypse ... Other than that, NOTHING!!!

[Inkster]

I'm glad that we at least got the date confirmation before the end of the year and not an "Oops we were wrong, delaying until unknown future date" message. Also, it's very close to the end of the year, so it's not disappointing. Thank you all for your hard work and I look forward to the game!

"Hey, I haven't checked the KS blog in a while. I wonder if they have a release date yet?"

Well, fuck yes. Fuck fucking yes.
