Re: Ask!

I am pretty sure none of us reads fanfiction. Either way, it's somewhat probable that some of it is pretty good?

Re: Ask!

Making visual novels is hard work. Is it worth it? The only reward we get out of working on this stuff is our own self-satisfaction and sense of accomplishment. I, and I believe everyone in 4LS, feels that working on a KS sequel would be less fulfilling than working on something fresh. By working on...

The idea didn't come from any 4LS member, but I think a heart is rather obvious for a romance story? We can pretend the band-aid is inspired by Peter Kruder's album "Peace Orchestra".

Re: Ask!

How did the charaters come about, did you have people who served as thier base model? (not talking about apperance) Explaining creative process is terrible. We just threw shit at a wall to see what stuck. Some characters were made for functional needs, to fill a role needed in the story, so their c...

Re: Ask!

We never decided anyone's handedness. All I remember is that Rin is ambidextrous (because kamifish drew her using different feet for dexterity tasks in different images, not because anyone decided she was).

Re: Katawa Shoujo Made It To The Front Page of Reddit!

Guys, this isn't the most constructive discussion I've seen in the recent times.

Anyway, it's interesting that KS can still occasionally get randomly mentioned and get significant traction in a place like Reddit's more mainstream subs.

Re: Ask!

On the topic of Rin's arm-stubs. We only ever see them during her final H-scene; whereas with Emi, for example, we see her leg-stubs at a few different times, including outside of H-scenes. Even Rin's "nude" sprites have her draped in a shirt. Was there any conscious (or subconscious?) de...

Re: Ask!

If you count the really early development (pre-4LS), the amount of contributors is in the hundreds due to how KS began, as an open project from 4chan's /a/ board. But after 4LS was formed, off the top of my head, in addition to the 21 people in the credits there's 8 other people I can remember that ...

Re: Ask!

Rest are random, but chosen so that Hanako's and Lilly's fall in summer, during KS's events, and the rest do not, as crud says above. It was a while sense I played KS but if I remember correctly, some paths seemed longer/shorter than others in terms of when they take place in the year. During what ...

Re: Ask!

Rin's birthday is the date when I wrote the first text about her. Hisao's (super uncanonical) birthday is January 4th - the beginning date of KS project. Emi's was decided to be one day off Rin's. Rest are random, but chosen so that Hanako's and Lilly's fall in summer, during KS's events, and the re...

Re: Ask!

You probably should take a second look at the comments we've made of this topic. There's a pretty big difference between being self-critical and realistic and "despising your own work". Here's an example I'd guess the actual reason for most of us not wanting to read KS is saturation. We at...

Re: Ask!

Did you guys had a idea in mind when writing the story for the girls, any inspirations that influenced how the story turned out? Why for example Rin's story would be about how to express herself & her art or Emi's about her nightmares & running, etc. This is a slightly differently shaped &q...

Generally:

- backgrounds
- sprites
- cg's
- logo's
- music
It also does include the script, which is in fact a big deal (except probably not for this specific thing)
