    One of the biggest misconceptions with licensing a game is that people believe that just because a company snags a title from a well known company (i.e. = Front Wing, Key), they instantly have rights to all the other titles made by said group.

    That's false.

    Well, they have shown interest in Favorite's other titles, so followed patronage is possible,but by no means a given

    This is basically what Sekai Project is trying to do atm:

    Keep absorbing all these translated or not, spam kickstarter and move onto the next one... like most of us scrubs piling up VNs on our backlogs and never play it. 

    Also Hoshimemo is actually an OK translation. It's not Moenovel trash or any other alien gibberish that butchered the English language...

    Exactly

    I was indifferent about SP until Root Double and the such happened, and now this?

    I'm so done with SP's bullshittery

    I don't need another Sakura game nor another HoshiMemo

    I need actually meaningful titles

    Can someone tell me again why IroSekai didn't get licenced?

    So apparently SP is licencing Hoshizora no Memoria, Sakura Dungeon and KARAKARA.

    Honestly this news is something else, not really good or bad.

    Sakura Dungeon is what you'd except, another Sakura title full of fanservice. Apparently it is a collab attempt by Mangagamer and SP.

    KARAKARA seems to show promise, but it is yet another Kickstarter-esque endeavor, so it needs to be watched carefully.

    Then HoshiMemo. Oh boy is this redundant. Obviously this one is rather needless one, but the original translation was what it was, and some heavy editing is needed, so this isn't totally worthless, and maybe good in some respect, as I do love the title to death. But what ticks me off is that SP didn't start with something of more importance, like Eternal Heart or Irotoridori no Sekai. But there's still hope, as SP has shown interest in Favorite's titles, the Eternal Heart and IroSekai.

    But all in all, even if Sekai didn't have over 50 open projects already, this seems rather redundant. However, maybe we will see something that actually matters from SP. Who knows.

    What is the most important part in a Visual Novel for you?

    Everyone has that one thing that they look for in a VN: Be it art, story, characters, voice actors, BGM or even moe-factor, everyone has one, but which is yours?

    Mine was art for the longest time, but when time went on, I started to pay more respect to the characters in a VN, and art got triumphed by characters. But I still like good art in Visual Novels immensly. Although I appreciate charages and nakiges more than ever before, standard run-of-the-mill SoL with good art is still good sometimes. It just isn't as good as before. Even so, even if the story is sub-par or the story is generic, that doesn't matter to me; if it has good art or decent characters,  then 99% of the time I still will find it enjoyable and find it in me to finish it, most of the time.

    But enough of that, please do tell me your opinions.

    What is the most important part, that makes a Visual Novel?

    Honestly, I don't know if you want to get something out of this or not, so I'm just going to give my pure opinions, no sugarcoating.

    The character's art style is really bad.

    The setting seems like a generic saw ripoff and I hope it gets better.

    It's a lot of cliched horror tropes.

    The characters are rather bland.

    There are typos.

    The dialogue is quite cheesy as well.

    The backgrounds are nice and the choices have some zany elements in them, which I like.

    I played for a bit (20-ish minutes), and it just seems like an ordinary Closed Room-murder VN attempt. It was pretty bad, but not irredeemable, you just have to do some major changes, if you want this to success even a little bit.

    But I do hope a good future for this project of yours.
