@jamesst3 My Facebook page has downloads for all of my tracks (many of which I have not yet made videos for). If you don't have Facebook let me know and I'll upload it somewhere else for you.
@VLK1993 I just used the midi that Nicol wrote and used my own piano samples. Message me if you would like an mp3 of the accompaniment piano track and I would be happy to oblige!
@Lumbargo Kinda lame, actually. But since most everything is done on the software end, you don't need an elaborate setup anymore. I just have a dynamic mic running to a small 8 channel mixer, running to an imac with headphones. I use GarageBand for recording (a pain sometimes when you need to change tempos or time signatures) and Sibelius for arranging.
@woth13 Planning on it! I've got another one all ready to be uploaded, it's just a matter of processing it! I'm hoping to make this fairly regular. Also, I have a good many audio tracks on my Facebook page (linked in the description).

@knizz2 Honestly, it's something I've thought a lot about. Here's where I stand. It, to me, is like Game of Thrones. Extremely well done in many ways, but I disagree morally with portions of it. However, unlike Game of Thrones, KS has an option to turn off the morally-questionable material.
@Japesland Yes, and I'd disagree there. I've no fear of sex or it's depiction anywhere, since I'd consider it to be important in the ultimate expression of humanity as alive. Of course porn is different. Porn isn't an expression of that, merely an exploitation of it. Katawa Shoujo certainly doesn't exploit sexuality in my opinion. It's simply the natural conclusion to the path of emotions of the characters. ...I hope I worded that well.
@HitodamaKyrie I completely understand and respect your point of view, however, I still don't feel comfortable with that sort of thing in a video game.
@xXxRK0xXx I agree that KS was done very tastefully, but it still comes across as very morally questionable to outsiders. Plus, there definitely ARE some scenes that aren't done as tastefully as others...
@Japesland Hmmm, Yeah I understand where you're coming from.
I only did Lilly's, Hanako's and Rin's routes (in that order) and I feel the sexual content in Rin's route was not entirely necessary, and the fact she has no arms gives a sense of her having little control of what's happening. Hanako's, ehhh seemed a tad forced, showing scars =/= sex.
I have no problem with Lillys. Pretty perfect... but as I said, I understand what you mean, shame there isn't objective acceptance.
Let me know if you don't have Facebook, though, and I can hook you up with a temporary external link. Thanks for listening! It makes me feel great to know that people actually like this stuff!
Beautiful.

I like it. Do you really want to be associated with this game though?

@Japesland I've never watched this Games of Thrones, but I don't know how sexual stuff can be called "morally-questionable". :/

@HitodamaKyrie I guess it depends person to person. I think the issue with KS is that it rides the line between art and porn.

@Japesland You say 'morally questionable' as if there's rape or 'crippled' girls are getting taken advantage of, in which I would highly disagree.
