Right. Let me say this right now. This is the first graphic novel i'm playing, and by far, it's the best. A lenghty, enjoyable demo with plenty of likeable characters.

At first, i didn't liked the concept of you socializing with girls that have deficiencies, but after i played for awile, i started to realize there's nothing wrong with it. The characters are all friendly, the story is incredible, and the decisions you make take you out in completely different paths.

Also, i can tell that, by far, my favourite character is Hanako. She is like a bunny: cute yet very shy. I find myself choosing all of the opportunities to hang out with her, simply because i wanna look at her. I am not joking.

Anyway, i have a question. You see, it took awile to get to the end of the demo, and uhh... if a full release comes along, i don't want to go back all the way to that point. Not that i have anything against the game, it's just that it's gonna be a lot of clicking until i get where i left off. And i really wanna see how the story progresses. So, is there gonna be an option that leaves you off where you stopped? Maybe something that can restore your saved game from the demo?

Thanks in advance, and thanks to tsuyoshiro, because this thread was a pain in the arse to find. Sincerely, i got lost three times searching for it.

Well, most of my questions were already answered.

So i'm just gonna say, Thank you 4 leaf studio for bring us such a wonderful game. It was very entertaining and it made me relize a new side of me. I hope you continue to inspire more players with your wonderful works!

I thought the same thing, but I came to the conclusion that even if they do put that in, you'll still probably play through it again anyway just to refresh your memory. Actually, come to think of it, I don't think they could do that because you'd have several paths all stopped at the end of Act 1, if you see what I mean. So it'd be like you played the full version, went down X character's path, restarted at the end of Act 1, went down Y character's path, restarted at the end of Act 1, played Z character's path, restarted at the end of Act 1, and so on.

I recently install the game and till now its seems to be and interesting story you guys have plotted there :D I´ll continue with the game later so if i have more comments or question I´ll post later.

Doesn't seems to be a problem for me. I guess i'm weird like that '-'



Anyway, the fact that you have to play again to choose your paths doesn't seems to be an issue. They can simply jump to the path scenes where you have to select something, until you're in act 2.

Because people keep asking about keeping your saved games from Act 1, here's Aura's answer again:

will the act 1 in the full version be any different to the act 1 demo? if not is there a way to load your saved data from the demo act 1 onto the full version? (sorry it that is a really noobish question but KS is the first eroge i've played)


I'm sure Act 1 will be changed, but not significantly. The savedata transfer is unknown at the moment (it depends on a lot of things)

Ah damn... A bit late to ask the question but here goes anyway.

I know there is an option to turn off the H-scenes but is this a simple ON-OFF option or a password protection one? It's plain weird to walk in the room and see my borthers (11 and 12) on my computer playing X-chance, Pick me Honey and whatever H-games I have in possesion. (I really need to password protect my computer in general)

Secondly. reading the entire Q&A I saw it will be translated in Duch as well. (Benelux FTW XD) However I do hope that someone who knows the language will translate it. I have plenty of bad experience with Dutch translated games. (which half of the time don't make sense and start playing in English again)


>plenty of bad experience

Indeed, I can't understand why the Germans have to dub EVERYTHING. I won't check it out, but maybe it's not as bad when it's jap-eng-dutch translated.

Engels en japans zijn gewoon superior.

@Dejitaru Ryuu: I'd guess it will just be an on/off thing. If you want to hide it from your brothers, just make a hidden folder in the windows directory. You can even call the folder something like "sys444.dll" and change the folder icon to some technical-looking thing. Then, even if they un-hide all files, it'll just look like one of hundreds of miscellaneous technical files in the windows directory.

See? It's just a totally normal folder but because it looks like it has a file extension in its name, and because it has a DLL icon, it looks like some random file.

I have a question.

If Hanako's right half of her body is burnt (I am speculating here), ¿then her right nipple tastes like bacon?

Just curious.

EDIT:

Woops, "expeculating", haha.

And in a more serious tone, are there going to be more characters in the full version?
I don't mean side characters, more like lets say, another transfer student guy that you could say is the "antagonist" of the game, for example.

Someone that would have impact in the plot.

Is Hanako's 'tile game' a hint at some kind of OCD, or is that just a result of her loneliness? Because man, a shy, lonely, mentally scarred, chess-playing girl with OCD is pretty awesome. In theory, anyway.

Edit: Whoops, I didn't realise that this thread was so old. I guess the Q & A session is over, too.
