Servet Carey: Katawa Shoujo, isn't developed by 4chan on the contrary of known fact, has been developed by
"Four Leaf Studios" that its members
assemble at 4chan.
On April 2009, Four Leaves Studios have published "Act One" preview demo of Katawa Shoujo.
Act One, unlike the full version, was published with many languages.
but on 4th January 2009, it was only published
as English
Made by Ren'py engine, Katawa Shoujo has better impression
than other creations published with Ren'py engine. Excluding the voice over,
the game has every new aspect of visual novels. Even though it supposed to be
a negative score that there is no sound-staff in the game, we ought to condone this
because of the conditions and we should ignore this.
Katawa Shoujo, takes place at fictional place called Yamaku
High School at today's Japan for disabled people. It yarns the story of Hisao Nakai, who has an inborn heart illness
that distruped his life and had to lie in a hospital and had to change his school because of this illness.
and had to change his school because of this illness.
At first, I was biassed to the game for both it's storyline and it's name.
Don't get me wrong, I felt disturbed because I wonder how someone
could work up on disabled people and how they could work up a shoujo that contains
%90 romanticism on a delicate subject. But later while playing the game, I understood
that was an impertinent concern and actually I understood the story that being told was well enough.
Despite the gynaeceum with full of beautiful girls or mature girls on typical shoujo stories
With Katawa Shoujo, we'll see the story of Hisao Nakai's who tries to make himself friends
even a girlfriend in a special school with full of disabled people and also
we'll see our life isn't wonderfull in all aspects.
I strongly recommend this game because it is free and if you're a visual novel fan
you will not lose anything with trying it. Eventually, doujinshi artist Raita is in the
developing staff and after five years of developing proccess
it would be a big loss to not try a game that even its developers made it for
free.
