I don't come here often /jp/ however I hear you guys are the ones to contact with regards to VN's
I just recently came across Katawa Shoujou and I love it however only the demo is out currently.
Do you guys know if it is still being worked on or is it dead?

Most likely it's being worked on. Why don't you ask them in person? Surely they must have IRC and a site?
As for KS, I think asking in /a/ would be more appropriate.
/jp/ is for japanese VNs (and sometimes their translations), it's not for OELVNs (anything made outside of japan, in english; a strange new breed would be something made in japan targetting the english market (OVERDRIVE is now working on one such title). I'd figure the second case would still be /jp/'s territory, but the first won't be).

Current planned release is December 21, 2012.

Release date estimated to be sometime between the return of Jesus and Gen Urobochi's ascension as one of His angels.

Thanks I wasn't sure whether this was /a/ territory or /jp/ territory so I gambled on /jp/ since it was a visual novel. Thank you man I appreciate it

KS did start on /a/. Hell, the group leader was a fansubber (the group now barely releases anything lately).

>> No.7829789

they have a development blog, which was being regularly updated up until this year. around january they announced that they would be finishing up the game sometime this year, which was the first and last time they gave anything close to a release date. they haven't made status updates as often as they used to since, but earlier in the summer they posted that a few more girl's routes were either completed or nearing completion. i would still bet that they have it out sometime this year, even if that means december.

Really? I personally believe that if they release it, they'll lose all relevancy in the community (after the two week period where everyone plays it and posts the sex scenes on /a/ and /v/, of course). They're probably going to try to milk this as long as humanly possible.

>>7829795
>harem

Is this your... first VN? This isn't an anime, girls have routes in the game and they're not all trying for MC's dick if you choose to not let them.

I just want to say that pretty much every VN in the world is trash besides Katawa Shoujo. Even then I'm kind of a bit sketchy. I really hope it lives up to expectations.

i think they have more to gain by releasing it. after that demo came out, it was a really popular topic on a lot of boards for a pretty decent amount of time. once it comes out, /a/, /v/, /jp/, and even random boards like /g/ and /tg/ will probably shitstorm over it for a few weeks. once that's gone, i still think there'll be threads about it for a long time, just like one will pop up for yume miru kusuri and saya no uta every now and then. it'll be recommended to just about everyone asking for an intro to VNs - not that the demo isn't anyway, i guess.

>> No.7829835

>>7829830
Agreed, OP here and I'm going to admit the only VN I've played is Saya no Uta. As far as entry level VN's go I really enjoy Katawa Shoujo, so maybe it would be good for increasing intrest in VN's

>> No.7829837

>>7829830
Pretty much true, it's just that they won't have any more excuses to attention-whore on the boards unless they start something new.

Still, I'm sure lots of people - including them - want to see it completed. It was an idea spawned on 4chan, after all. Kinda nice to see something come this far, even if we don't need to have threads about it 3 times a day.

Yes, but that will only get them a 65, maybe 70% of the attention they can milk out of this. Wait for them to start talking about bonus disks, or con appearances, or god forbid, starting up a company, and that's when the shitstorms won't stop.

unless you actually believe yourself when you say "get out, ks devs," i'm not too sure what you mean by attention-whoring on 4chan. in fact, when the demo came out and was being called a "4chan VN," it seemed to me like they were trying to distance themselves from that idea. have you seen them trip, or something? in fact, since their development blog has been pretty quiet for quite a few months, i got the feeling that they were sort of clamming up before the game was released.

>>7829839
i think you should get over the fact now that /jp/ is going to be pretty crazy once the game comes out. a different sort of shitty than it usually is. who knows, maybe the usual attention whoring bullshit will stave off for a few weeks if they have to share the spotlight with KS-thread spam.

Why don't you stop shitposting ads on /jp/ and go finish this turd up already, OP?
