Re: Ask!

Which font was used for Katawa Shoujo, specifically the logo, but the text ingame as well? Question's been answered already... by Aura... in this thread. I don't know if this was answered, but what font was used for the game? Playtime with Hot Toddies Much obliged. I thought it would've been asked,...

Re: Hanoko Ending - A choice where there is not a choice -Lo

I have a theory about that: It is supposed to replicate the situation from real life, when whatever you do, you're still fucked because of some mistakes you made before, not even knowing due to lack of insight into the simplest of choices. It seems sooo real. Yes, but that would apply better to cho...

Re: Would Katawa Shoujo have worked as a written novel?

For reference:
Topic containing a link to The flowchart of how to do act 1

I'll sideline the Shizune argument then until when her arc comes up :P

And point conceded re: Lilly.

Also, I thought this thread was for discussing turning the VN into a N? :S How can discussing it hijack the thread? :P

Re: Would Katawa Shoujo have worked as a written novel?

I will be going through with a flowchart and picking all the right choices, however, depending on the route I'm taking, I may make different choices at different times (for example, Hisao introducing himself to the class, which I plan to do for Lilly's route, but not for Shizune's). I'll be going f...

Re: New found interest in learning sign language

I've always wanted to just know the basics of sign language. I don't know any deaf people, but figured that knowing the very basics would be useful for if I ever met anyone who was deaf. Sadly, I don't know anyone else who would be interested in learning sign language, and without anyone to practise...

Re: WIP - Emi Platformer - HELP NEEDED

Haha, this sounds amazing :D Although how long do you want this game to be? Antyhign more than about a level, and you'll need to introduce more elements into it than the typical coin-collect-run game. I'd suggest something like 5 'normal' levels, followed by a bonus level, or a boss level depending ...

Re: Ask!

I was wondering if someone could help clarify the specifics of Emi's accident. At the climax of her arc, at the scene graveyard, the intent is to finally reveals all that she was holding back from Hisao and us, but it left me a little confused as to what exactly was revealed. Emi already knew that ...

Re: Would Katawa Shoujo have worked as a written novel?

Oh cool. My biggest concern with adapting it to a novel was that if the text as a VN was put through verbatim, it clearly wouldn't make enough sense, and would need fleshing out to properly describe what was going on. It's good to see that's happening. Although how are you dealing with choices in th...

Re: Hanoko Ending - A choice where there is not a choice -Lo

I thought the Hanako route was quite harsh... the original choice between bad route and good/neutral route was quite tough IMHO. I sat for a good minute staring at the screen thinking if I ask her to town, she'll decline. It's the middle of the day, and Lilly isn't there, she'll just turn me down. H...

Re: KS Academic Conference Paper - Seeking Help

1. Which girl's thread affected you the most emotionally? Why did it do this? Emi's. Hers was the first route I read (Emi, Shizune, Lilly, Hanako. Still not read Rin's edit: Now read Rin's, and it doesn't change my opinion), so that may ahve also been a factor. Halfway through act 1, Emi's positivit...

Re: Which is the saddest ending?

Hanako's NEUTRAL ending. You've basically completely broken her. And while it's hinted throughout, you don't really see the extent of it until you read into her good ending. She at least stands up for herself and overcomes some aspect of that shyness in her bad ending. Since voting in the poll (for...

Re: If katawa shoujo was voiced should Shizune's line be spo

Before Hisao can understand her, Misha obviously would translate Shizune's words, so Misha's actress would do the talking. After Hisao learnt to sign read, it should be subtitled to show that it was different. After all, you don't want the audience getting confused and thinking Shizune was 'cured' o...
