Yeah, what he said. Advertise on other forums and sites is ok since a few of us did, but on a random news and update website like Sankaku, nah, the timing's not suitable, yet xD

Yes, there is more. In making.

We made it into a game by using a game engine called ren'py. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

Some of us, yes. Most voice actors that will be in this project probably won't be on this forum. Most of our story writers are here (Sil, Shana, Tuna, etc.) Haruhi girl? The voice actor? No, she's not here.

Blue Hair, Green eyes? The banner, right? That's Kanata, mother of Konata, from Lucky Star.

Not too sure who wrote the prologue. I think it was Tuna.

Eh what? I'll ask you to check out Tuna's fanfic here, which is what this visual novel is based on.

Chapter 1's writing is done. I think. Still not voiced. I don't think it's scripted either. Either way, we probably won't be releasing the next chapter as a single file.

This is great! You're a Tank! Thanxo!!

Only one of the voice actors dropped out of the project and that was Mio who was the voice of both Kyonko and Saya. For Kyonko, i used Katerinu who voiced her in my audio drama while my cousin plays the voice of Saya.

Understood, glad Katerinu's voicing, her voice's not bad : D

[ShinyaKyoto]

The demo was shown to people from Japan and the reactions to the game was pretty good even though they couldn't understand the story or what the text said.

Thanks, I hope to finish chapter 5 when I get Ryou's lines. The other thing I want to add is that my cousin agreed to voicing Saya.

Edit: Added an megaupload link to the windows port.

[Shintarou Inuzuka]

It looks great so far! I like the updated graphics and everything.

Just one note, though: the blank speaker box when Alan is talking looks out of place.

[Southrop]

I agree on that, but I think the point is that we don't find out who the character we play as is until we meet Haruhi. I suppose question marks could be put there, but then that would look a bit weird, because that is supposed to be "you"

[ShinyaKyoto]

You do bring up a good point. The other thing that needs to be fix is the music but it's been pointed out already.

[Sil]

How bout just putting it as Alan, since most of the people who'll play the final product knows it's Alan already. Music wise, give it a week more or so, i wanna see how our music composer remixes the OST so we could use it.

[Maxlance]

Back dudes!!
Thanxo South for the 411! Your game's almost awesome even though its not done! It's like a PS-2 game novel but you don't got lots of stories branching off like it does but you're coming! Good work! Wow! Kanata's one MILTF! I got to start checking her out and watch Lucky Star now! Are you going to stream this story too? You should also put clips up on UTube too. Thing is you keep using same graphics over and over. Why don't you screen capture the characters off animes on UTube and use them? What other kind of side stuff does the Tuna got going? He's good! You're all good! Three thumbs up! When weekend Saturday comes I'll say more! Thanxo!!!

[hybrid-kernel]

Maybe a new video should be posted on youtube, as the old ones are now outdated and no longer represent the game.

[Tunafishisgood]

We got a interesting full review. XD this really gets me motivated

[Honya]

Oh god you found my blog post. I hope I didn't sound too harsh or anything.

[Sil]

I've found the post on the first day he joined, though, been keeping a tab of it. Nice arts : D

[Tunafishisgood]

XD I liked it. It addresses almost all the issues we have right now. You also addressed some postive views as well.

In my opinion, it was a very fair view on the VN. Also, I'd rather take more harsh comments than the comments like "OMG this is so awsome~!!".

Too postive comments like "OMG this is so awsome~!!" only helps us feel good about ourselves. (not that we shouldn't feel good about ourselves. Just so no one gets carried away.)

We are making this so that fans can enjoy it after all. We have to listen to their suggestions.

[Honya]

I try to write objectively as much as possible so it's nice too hear that my comments were useful.

[Sil]

On a side note, Kyoto Animation's recent epic cock tease is having a negative impact on our Haruhi related arcs -_-

This is something I'd like to receive confirmation on. Of course, I know that there are no girls on the internet, but I have a suspicion that we might have one here. Of course, I have no real argument for that, except the use of the name Honya, which was actually a nickname for a girl in the series Mahou Sensei Negima (by Akamatsu Ken-sensei).

[Vern]

I have always thought of Honya as a guy. :P Well it is a fairly comprehensive review you wrote there, but "Weeaboo Kingdom Hearts"? Damn man, but I can't really deny it either. :V

What, you want me to use it for every user that has a female character for the avatar but talks like a guy?

[Honya]

I'll leave my gender ambiguous just because.

I got that phrase while trying to tell a friend about WoHS and I needed something short and simple to describe it.

[Southrop]

Haha. Well, leaving your gender ambiguous will only make it trouble some for us. How should we refer to you in the 3rd person then?

[Sil]

I'll just use he until further confirmation >_>
