The Space Girls – Meet and Greet
Posted by Samu-kun on May 21, 2009
Hello everyone, and welcome to the first installment of The Space Girls: Meet and Greet! Sunrider seriously boasts one of the biggest casts ever in a English language visual novel, with the title ship being crewed by five delightful female crew mates (DFC) by itself. (And don’t forget, there’s one more DFC on a rival ship too.) So let’s get to meeting and greeting them all, shall we?

Katawa Shoujo Act 1 – Initial Impressions
Posted by Samu-kun on May 5, 2009
By now, I think that most of the visual novel community has played the Katawa Shoujo demo at least once. It’s really quite an impressive piece of work, so you should definitely go download it if you haven’t already. I got the Hanako ending and I’m at roughly 70% completion right now, so I think I’ve played enough to give my initial impressions.

Katawa Shoujo (Act 1) Released
Posted by Samu-kun on May 4, 2009
I’m definitely late to the party, but the (im)famous disability bishoujo game from 4Chan has finally been released. I didn’t really want to post about it until I finished playing it, but a combination of working on Sunrider, taking finals, and my laptop breaking down have kept me from getting more than 30 minutes into it so far. I’ll probably be posting a more in-depth review of it once I’m finished.

Crazy Skills
Posted by Samu-kun on April 24, 2009
I’d like to think of myself as at least a half decent amateur 3D artist, but when I see crazy ass crap like this, I realize that I am and always will be nothing but a peon in the food scale.
That crap’s seriously awesome. Even if I had all the technical art skills in the world, along with a super computer 300 years from the future, I would still lack the amount of imagination required to make crazy stuff like that. Man, I better start saving money to buy that…

Mechanical Files #1
Posted by Samu-kun on April 12, 2009
Well, the original plan was to have a series of in depth posts about the Sunrider design process, but we kind of got buried underneath all the work we had to do and ended up going for a much smaller public preview. Sorry everyone, but looks like you’ll have to be satisfied with just these pictures for now.
There’s another batch of pictures at HC Staff, so go head there now. =3

A Dango Disaster
Posted by Samu-kun on March 17, 2009
I’m sure everyone has seen at least one Kyoto Animation show. Being the creators of anime series like Haruhi Suzumiya, Lucky Star, and Kanon, they’ve created some of the best in anime. So, obviously, a second season to the already great Clannad is just destined to succeed right? I mean, how could the people who made Kanon 06 possibly fail?

I Have It…
Posted by Samu-kun on February 22, 2009
At last it is mine… Thanks to kendo, I became an instant poor man and I had to wait so long…
Currently stuck trying to figure out what the password to that steel door is based on the words “light” “sky” and “sphere.” Also disappointed that there is no Japanese voice over in the game.
Now that I have this game, I have to get this one.
In other words, poverty is inevitable. =w=
