The name of the game

I have to agree with others that Katawa is a derogatory term, and maybe not proper, if this game is to be taken at least a bit seriously. Although "Dissabilty Girls" doesn't have as nice a ring as Katawa Shoujo, it is however better.

The suggested choices:

"Cuore"
"Broken Hearts: Reverie of the Two"
"Anatta"
"Coeur: Everything is Perfect"
"Coeur: Rhythm of Life"
"~命のチョウシ~" (Inochi no choushi - Rhythm of Life)

In my humble opinion, maybe the title Rythm of Life fits the best.

Opinions?

Not again. We are not changing the name unless a REALLY good reason comes up or the game gets translated to japanese by us, which is not very likely. Reasons: KS is estabilished name, picked from the original source, we don't want to bother all the work regarding the name change and we don't care about elevens. Fin.

Plus we consistently fail to come up with something actually better, which is the main point imo.

Also that, yes. Maybe my first reply should have been "...unless a REALLY good alternative comes up"

I... suppose. No real reason to change it, I know, but sometimes I just can't get off my little politically correct soapbox.

This game is pretty god damn politically incorrect even without a name like "Cripple Girls":

It's true. We're trying to approach the game with a slight message (disabled folk are people too, etc.) but in the end the object of the game is to fuck these girls. Fuck them and (for most of the players) masturbate furiously. There is no pretty face to put on that. All the PC in the world won't change that.

I'd like to think that people come away from the game with more than a raging boner (or a dirty sock), but honestly I'm not quite that idealistic just yet.

Just as planned.

Because of the pseudololi, her lack of legs, or something that must be kept in secret for now?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Because of the contrast between "MUST NOT FAP TO EMI" phenomenon caused by her bubbly innocence and Hivemind's dark secrets concerning the H-scenes in Emi's path.

Innocence makes characters less fappable?

What is this? Bizzaro world?
