Well, seeing as Act 1 has been out for a while now and this has been creating a lot of buzz online...well, where anime, manga, games are concerned anyway, I thought I'd make a topic on it and throw in a poll for good measure.

For those who don't know, this is a Western Developed visual novel developed by 4 leaf studios that originated from 4chan....yes, that 4chan. And while the devs go to lengths to not have themselves associated with it, the fact that it started there has stuck with them and most comments I've seen including my own were 4chan + Disabled Characters + Eroge = WTF!?trainwreck! only to do a full 180 after actually playing the demo.

Yes, disabled characters; armless girl, legless girl, blind girl, deaf & mute girl, paranoid roommate, etc...As the title does translate to cripple girl.

Though what seems or thought to have been nothing but a way to cater to a certain fetish(read "E-R-O-G-E") the game actually tackles the subject and I quote "tastefully" and seems to give a somewhat optimistic view on life or I would like to believe. And there will be an added feature to skip the H scenes as well...

So any thoughts on the subject? The topic they handled? Who's your fav character? Or is this really a trainwreck just waiting to happen?

P.S. I couldn't help but compare Rin (the armless girl) to Mams solely on the way she talks lol. Some of you might wanna check this out just for that. 🤣

Is it any good? I don't want to waste any MBs.

It's pretty good so far and getting a lot of positive feedback. And demo's only 155mb or so...

Disturbing but nontheless intriguing idea. I will try it because Hanako appears to be cute.

Hopefully, this will not take aeons to complete.

I played it somewhat, and as of now, Rin's my favorite with Hanako as a close second and Lily as a close third.

Kenji's interesting as well.

They apparantly based the game on some artist's omake - detailing the sort of game he would produce if he had the time, money and interest.

The fun bit is, Anonymous took him up on it, and the rest is history.

Wow, They did a good job on this game.

Hurrdurr.
Shizune.

Wow, They did a good job on this game.

Finished act one, have 80% done so far, its not bad by any means, and even with the subject matter, it was pulled off a rather nice way...

Hopefully, if they finish it, it will keep that up.

Interesting link for fans.

Rin's route is the best, judging from the demo.

No love for poor Emi. 🤣

I ended up with her route first, and it was slightly disappointing.

Rin, Hanako, and Lilly are by far the best.

Lol, only a few of us actually held interest in this.

^Speaks for itself

Rin, more interesting than the others

Disability fetish anyone? Either Shizune or Lilly seem to be my type. Blind girl? I'll show you the spots. Mute and deaf? You can't run away from me >=D

OT: Does the demo have the H-scenes already implemented?

I don't think I have a disability fetish.

People are people, regardless of those things.

True true, I was only making light of what the game would attract... Haha. Looking past that, I would assume that this game would have good ratings.

BTW: Voted Lilly. I'm weak for blondes.
