Katawa Shoujo does seem kinda interesting.
[1] This facsimile operated in part by synAC.... what does HNNNGGGGGGG!!! mean?
Before I read the post, I actually interpreted that as an abstract vocalisation of Do Not Want...
Play Again? Y/NHNNGGGG adj.'
1.) Onomatopoeia for the struggling sound a Hisao makes when having a heart attack.
2.) DO WANT. Very cute/want that you just had a heart attack. Synonymous with "A Certain Onomatopoeia".
e.g 1. Hisao: HNNGGG
Lily(OTP): Are you alright, Hisao?
2. The Seven Nights: *sees a... um... Rider (FSN) Plushie?* HHHNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG

I'm the spark that makes your idea bright. The same spark that lights the dark, so that you can know your left from your rightBut VIDEO GAMES IS ANIME, English Ivy! D:
[1] This facsimile operated in part by synAC.Well, Visual Novels are kind of hard to classify. Technically they're video games, but stylistically speaking I think they've got more in common with anime/manga, really.
Play Again? Y/NAren't they actually more like Choose Your Own Adventure Light Novels?
Things I like: Ghost In The Shell |Serial Experiments Lain |Eden: It's an Endless World! |Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri |Aeon Natum EngelThey are, but they come with lots of pretty pictures.
(But so do light novels, come to think of it.)
Play Again? Y/NOnly light novels have far less.
...Man, I've been capitalizing the weirdest shit recently. Just now I capitalized "Light Novels", and I often capitalize hiragana and katakana in the same way I would for the name of a language (eg. "Japanese"). I blame TV Tropes.
Awww man, for a moment you had me hopeful that a release date hate been announced or something. .__.
Is there any information at all on when the next act will be completed?
I'd really rather wait until there's more than one act before playing it at all, but I'm afraid production has stalled to the point that it won't happen at all.
...eventually, we will reach a maximum entropy state where nobody has their own socks or underwear, or knows who to ask to get them back.From what I heard, the next release will be the full game, but there is no announcement as to when.
The Dev's blog posts at least 2-3 times a month, so I don't think prodoction has stalled so much as the fact that it is slow. IIRC, I remember reading off the blog that at least a few of the routes had finished (or were close to) the first drafts.
Fear the Gothilolions! | Anime listWhere do I find the dev's blog? I was going on the basis of the site itself, which doesn't seem to have been updated in a long time.

Also, here's a bunch of concept art and fan-art as organized by the people in charge. Just a warning, there are some NSFW pictures here and there within the rest of the stuff.
Fear the Gothilolions! | Anime listAlthough honestly I find the new design cuter.
the dice are loaded, the deck is stacked, the game itself will hold you backI approve of this development wholeheartedly.
I, too, give my thumbs up.
I love the new design for her hair. Am I bad person for thinking they could justify making her taller (assuming this were only a change to the later chapters, which it isn't) by having her get tired of being short, and get new prosthetics?
the dice are loaded, the deck is stacked, the game itself will hold you backBecause I just used her disability to make a cheap joke at her expense? You should know from the morality threads I don't care about being a bad person anyway; I was just curious.
the dice are loaded, the deck is stacked, the game itself will hold you backI don't know, I was more thinking that if I didn't have legs, I would totally get prosthetics that made me look taller.
But then again, certain threads have made me sound like a sociopath with no social sense. That was kinda redundant
Here's an example of HNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!
Lasts a bit too long for my taste.
i think KATAWA SHOUJO is tha best Visual Novel EVAR!! The storyline and plot are only near Nasuverse level but... IT'S VIRTUALLY FREE!!
now... about that release date...
also: GENERAL KT DISCUSSION...
