Nope.

A few minutes here and there, many months ago. And nope, no thoughts in particular.

Just a quick question out of curiosity, aimed at any devs who wish to answer, and on their respective character. If you had to choose a VA or seiyu for your character, that most resembles the way your character sounds in your head, whom would you choose?


I always pictured Rin as similar to Tara Strong's "Raven" character's voice.

At the peak of development activity, what percentage of a 40-hour work week would you say you put in on the project?

I've never thought this much (Rin doesn't even have a particular voice "in my head"), and I'm not familiar enough with voice actresses to really even answer.

Difficult question, because working on KS often wasn't continuous or easily measurable, not that I ever tried to. Maybe 25-30 hours on the long end of a "KS work week" could be somewhere in the right ballpark.

The peak of development activity for me was the December immediately preceding release. That month saw approximately a 175% percentage put in. Not something I'd exactly enjoy repeating.

For comparison, most of the process ran on a 50% or so.

Odd choice for an unit of measure, by the way...

It's a stupid question but, is the game currently being translated/there are plans of translating it into more languages? I ask specifically for spanish.

Whats with the ugly ass portraits in Yamaku hallways?

Yes, and yes specifically for spanish too http://ksesplatino.blogspot.fi/

What about them? They're just an eyecatching background feature.

Jeesh. The whole month?? Can't say I'd blame you…

It's a pretty standard situation for most workin' stiffs.

Are they part of the actual location photographed, or were they created and inserted specifically for the game?

The latter. We wanted a way to visually separate the different corridor backgrounds from each other.

Man those portraits are fucking gorgeous, what are you talking about "ugly-ass."

At some part of the project did you feel like "Oh, just put that there. Let's finish this"? More like, rushed something? Just a question. Not that anything in the final release feels rushed. But with a work so extensive, well, I guess something like that might happen.

Also, some of the "side stories" that appear in some routes. Like, Kenji stealing books and Yuuko's boyfriend. At some point did you intended to finish them, or they are already finished? Like, are they there just for giving some clues/background story and nothing more?
