Is discussion regarding the leaked Alpha script on /vg/ allowed here?

Speaking of Tanabata, how come only Shizune's route had it?

The rest of us didn't want to write about it or couldn't fit it in.

No

How's your standing with your game's fans?

As you can see from the linked post, I think fans are both great and weird.

[txalolrn9]

how tempted were you guys to allude to the "gimme the chocolate, hisao!" joke?

[Silentcook]

On a scale from 1 to 10? Probably in the negatives.

Forgive me if this has been answered before, but this forum has a huge number of posts and while i could derive entertainment from reading old ones, my modem makes some dial up connections look fast and isn't exactly reliable, so i'll just come out with it and hope it goes through:

How long have Lilly and Hanako known each other? While some of Lilly's lines seem to imply they became friends during the start of the year before Hisao arrived, but other lines imply they knew each other at the very least the year before since Lilly mentions trying to reach out to Hanako during her 17th birthday but it ultimately failing. Did they know each other and just become good friends when they became neighbors, or did Lilly just know old tales about Hanako's behavior?

Oh, and one more question: why did Misha wear the Bush Cheney shirt when the international community and a decent chunk of Americans were ashamed of governor Bush and Darth Baby Eater? Did she even know what the shirt said or is there an Apollo Justice style twist where Misha is actually the sensually challenged one and Shizune is screwing with a blind friend?

Cheney's lesbian daughter joke, perhaps?

[yummines]

I don't know where exactly to ask this, so I'm posting this here.

I'm thinking of making a fan-game of Katawa Shoujo based around the premise of Yume Nikki (i.e. exploring and finding effects. its still in idea phase, i'll iron out the details later).
obviously i wont use images and music ripped directly from the game. however if i make chiptune or remixed versions of songs from the game, can i use them?

Come on Aura-chan, you are just shy :3

I am really curious about who wrote Kenji's text.

[WorldlyWiseman]

Aura, Is there any background info that you established for Sae and Nomiya that didn't make it into the final game? They seem like they've led interesting lives.

[Hi!]

First, can I say Katawa Shoujo is an absolutely wonderful game, which I enjoyed immensely.

I did have a lot of questions, but they seem to be mostly answered over the previous 130 pages, but one thing did seem to be skirted around and not asked directly:

Legally speaking, given Hanakos mental problems, can she actually consent to sex?

[Pyramid Head]

A person incompetent to consent to a sexual relationship would be someone who doesn't understand what is happening. When you think of people who can't give consent you think of the developmentally challenged like low functioning Downs Syndrome patients, the severely autistic, or maybe someone with an unstable mental state like a paranoid schizophrenic not being given treatment. You do not think of a shy girl with anxiety issues! Seriously, that implication pisses me off when a lot of the Hanako arc revolves around her NOT being as badly off as people seem to think and not needing nor wanting protection.

Iirc they know each other all the way from their first year at the school, but I might misremember.

Misha doesn't care about politics, she just likes the shirt.

I think that would be okay.
