From what I've heard about the alpha, it doesn't really interest me. I'd think I'd prefer not to have known about [plot detail from Hanako's alpha story] since it seemed kinda silly compared to Hanako's story in the actual VN. Considering how good the final product is I think its safe to trust that the writers' made the right choice in making whatever changes were made to the alpha.Dizzy wrote: I honestly didn't mean Katawa Shoujo should be changed, or to imply I should do it, or anything like that. I was thinking more like add the Alpha to the Final to show a friend if they wanted to see what I was talking about, but I made it sound much worse than that. Even that much would still be an insult to all the hard work everyone put into it.

Re: Ask!
I would like to know how the dev team react to people saying how awesome the game is and how it changes there lives?
For me I am a bit depressed right now about life and school work and KS has shaken me up a lot (Hopefully for the better).
This is the same feeling I had when finishing reading Ender's Game the first time, where I walked in a daze for days thinking about the book and just thinking about my life.
Love the VN!

Mostly confusion. Positive feedback is great of course, but we can't quite comprehend exactly what in KS makes people feel this way about it.EpicGamerBot wrote:I would like to know how the dev team react to people saying how awesome the game is and how it changes there lives?

<Aura> would you squeeze a warm PVC bottle between your thighs and call it "manaka-chan"

The music is melancholy and deep.
Sometimes it feels that even the happiest of moments of the game are sad still because of the music.

for me though it is just the melancholy of the title theme that captures what I feel is the sadness of it.

Funny, because for me it captures the warmth of it.EpicGamerBot wrote:for me though it is just the melancholy of the title theme that captures what I feel is the sadness of it.
I guess it's best to just say: Whatever KS did, does and will continue to do for good or ill - it was, is and will always be needed.
Now to ask another question of anyone who cares to answer and if you can remember. During the 5 years that this was in development, how often or perhaps when did you get around to thinking about KS? Every time when you sat down at the computer? Or, if you were an artist, whenever you sat down to draw? That kinda question really...less so about did you think about it 1 month per year and moreso - when did your mind wander towards KS during the time you were making it?
Re: Ask!
Most days. Creative work easily floats to the surface of the mind when it has nothing else to do, like in shower, or working out. Also, when deciding on how to spend my free time, there was always the choice of working on KS.Loonie wrote:Funny, because for me it captures the warmth of it.EpicGamerBot wrote:for me though it is just the melancholy of the title theme that captures what I feel is the sadness of it.

Re: Ask!
Has Lilly's mother ever been given an official name? I noticed some art on the Shimmie calling her "Karla", but I'm not sure how official that was. Karla's not even an English/Scottish name...it's of German origin and used there and in Scandinavia (and occasionally the Netherlands as well) but doesn't seem at all common in the UK. I recall something about Lilly's mom once having been from a different country which may explain the name. Any light to be shed on this?

Re: Ask!
I'm not entirely sure about the thrust of your question, but it was a minimum of three hours a day, every day. I understand this may not be the case for everyone, but how could I NOT think about unfinished business which I could actually affect by chipping at it?Loonie wrote:Now to ask another question of anyone who cares to answer and if you can remember...

Re: Ask!
Music question, I know the animations were made first with the music added in (presumably to sync up with it) afterwards, but I'm wondering about how the rest of the music came about.
That's kinda vague, so to explain, I mean another chicken or the egg question. Was it a case of "Okay, we need you to make this many depressing ones, this many spritely ones, and this many ambiance ones", which were then adopted and edited based on if they fit, or was there more knowledge to it going in? Same deal with the character themes, was it a case of "You know, this music really fits this character, let's use it as a theme" or was each one created with that character in mind?
