Now the questions:
1. Was this intentional?
2. If yes, does every/most member about the Katawa Shoujo team knows about this?
3. And If you guys know about this, are there more hidden "easter eggs" like this? I am actually laughing hard at this find here.
I do believe this sounds very much alike - yet different in tone and atmosphere, I do suppose it is some kind of easter egg, but VERY hilarious nontheless.
Furthermore I want to thank you for this awesome game, you guys deserve and form of direct and indirect paise, such as reviews and/or people praising it outside this board on other forums. Great game in every aspect!

Actually never even would have occurred to me. I just figured there would possibly be a little save file I could delete. Thanks though.Talifan9 wrote: Reinstall?

It's not a "cut scene", it's a cut scene. A scene that was cut.

What was your primary motivation for including Iwanako's letter? Directed at Aura, I guess.Suriko wrote:We never intended for her to come back into the game in any way after the opening scenes. The letter from Iwanako was suggested by Aura a couple of years ago, and all the writers liked the idea, so we all implemented it and used it in various ways across the different paths.ChairmanMeow wrote:Did you guys ever intend for Iwanako to be more or less relevant to the plot?

Re: Ask!
Appearance-wise, I always wanted him to look vaguely like the Doctor (why? Because I was/am really into Doctor Who). His personality drew a little on that, but to be honest those elements were toned down (and in many cases scrapped) because it just didn't work with the character (indeed I think it was mostly scrapped in favor of the slightly more world-weary dude we know and love).Aura wrote:1. Difficult question to answer, like all questions of this sort are. We drew on some archetypes and the roles we expected to need him for and mixed it up a little. He was originally even more goofy and awkward than he is now, and needed toning down.Errorname wrote:I've played through both Emi's and Lilly's route, and in both of them I really enjoyed every scene involving Mutou (especially in Emi's route), as he really reminded me of past teachers I had which convinced me that I wanted to go into the sciences.
1. How did you guys come up with him?
2. Did he have any particular writer assigned to him, or was he more or less an extra character every writer was told to work with?
2. He didn't have a writer. Hivemind, however, probably did the most work in fleshing his character out.
Not that this answers the question, really--the real answer is that we had a thread and tossed about ideas for him (and IRC discussions), and eventually said 'okay this is the sort of person he is.' Part of the editing phase involved making sure he didn't have any major personality shifts between paths.
