Aw,  thank you for the kind words! I think the naming puzzle people got stuck at the most haha

The game requires a keyboard to be played, since some of the interactions are bound to specific keys.

All team sizes are welcome

Hello! That's a wonderful idea, we can absolutely include comics, written fiction and zines as well 😄 I've just updated the description to be inclusive of these kinds of entries.

sorry for the late reply. No, there won't be a mobile version but I've heard that Joi Play can be used to play non mobile games on mobile.  

no worries, you're good! :) I'm okay with spoilers being described if it's with a warning, since some bugs do require the context.

hey, thanks for letting me know! Must have put the wrong colliders for some of the tiles. I already knew about the other bug and I don't want spoilers to be posted here so I deleted your other comment, but it is on my radar that you can walk into the crowd of people in the backalley section. 

Thank you again for playing the game on stream and all the positive feedback! 😊 As someone who usually puts very straight forward dialogue in his games I  had a hard time holding back and letting the game speak for itself, but I'm glad it paid out! I definitely agree that the navigation and transitions in the actual game could have been better, hopefully I can remedy that in a future release :-) but weird, now that you mention it, someone is knocking on my door too, brb

Thank you cryptid! Always happy to see a returning face 😄 I went on a bit of a nostalgia trip on the way back machine for my references, I think I understand now how millenials must feel when they see 90s tech inspired games lol

I just uploaded a new version to google drive and gamejolt (It's in the game description and devlog on itchio. If it says v1.1 on the title, it's the correct one) if you'd like to give the game another try :-) I tested it much more extensively than the old version but if there are any bugs remaining or new ones, please let me know 🙏

Thank you! :D Yeah, apparently I put the wrong switch so the file doesn't show up in the file manager when it's supposed to 😭

Thank you for making a video of the game! The folder only showing up in the image studio was actually bug :( Apparently I put the wrong switch to turn it on the file manager oops Gonna be fixed in the next version I upload!

Aw thank you Spica!! I saw you submitted a game as well 👀 gonna have to check it out these days, it looks really cool!

I'm thinking of making a patch these next few days and uplaoding it on google drive so there is a less buggy version available at least :')

It's supposed to be melted gold that Chase poured over John to freeze him in place but I can see how it reads as butter haha

Aww thank you so much Banya 🥺 and man... I did feel like something was weird with that staircase when I testplayed, but I was so tired and close to the deadline that I thought it was just in my head 😭 Thank you for letting me know!

oh no, thank you for reporting this bug! I guess I didn't account for anyone trying to do both ways to enter the school, I'm sorry it broke the game this badly :'( I really wish I wasn't locked out of doing bug fixes for a month because there seem to be a lot of them 😭 Thank you for your tenacity! 

Aw, thank you! It seems that the switch between the game and the computer can be a little buggy, definitely gonna try to fix that first things first once I can edit the game again :'( It hopefully shouldn't happen again if you replay to that point but I completely understand if you don't want to. Good luck with your submission as well! Love all the recent y2k nostalgia 😄

Thank you! I'm definitely planning to add some more content after the judging period is over, though whether it's gonna make the story clearer or even more confusing is yet to be seen haha

That's awesome timing from windows 😂 And thank you! Gonna have to check out your entry out as well 👀

Thank you!

I see! Thank you for bringing it to my attention :)

Yes for sure! If you want to share the translation with me I'm happy to put it on to the page as well once I'm able to 😄

Hello! Yes this is a bug 😭 Does this keep happening if you reload an earlier save file? Also did this happen after you picked up one of the files or after going back from the main menu?

Thank you for the review! Yeah I figured there would be some performance problems with how plugin heavy the game is 😣 thank you for your persistance regardless! The retribution post was actually linked to an ending I didn't have enough time to implement :'( So you cant download the attachement (yet. Planning to add this once the judging period is over) The other endings is related to file 1.pist 

Feel free to ask any questions you have about the game here! 

If you made any content about Kana.exe, whether it's a let's play, blog post, fanart, or anything else really, please feel free to post it here! (This should go without saying, but post ONLY SFW content.)

If you find any bugs, I appreciate it if you let me know here :) Please note that the game is currenlty going through a judging phase as part of the RPG Maker jam, so I won't be able to upload any any bug fixes for the following month.

Please leave any general comments or feedback about the game here! 

Thank you! Plugins were definitely my best friend during this project haha

If the game still gets stuck after reloading the page and playing to this part, I'd recommand downloading the game and playing it on a windows desktop instead.

That's an option that becomes available once affection is high enough! (dw it's wholesome haha)

Aw, thank you so much! So for Ending 6, you'll need to have the darkness at a middle stage while keeping affection low. There are multiple ways to achieve this, and it's easier to lower the darkness later, rather than earlier on like in the unofficial guide (maybe I should just get around to making an official one already lol) I just tried to get it, and the way I did it was: play, park, play, park, work, park, play (and always play the proper way with skip button on) I hope this helps!

Edit: I've just added a new interaction; You can now click on the bed icon to spend the day chilling at home, which is a neutral option that doesn't impact the stats much, other than slightly raising Eli's mood. If you're playing in browser your saves should be automatically transferred to the new version, for the windows build you'll have to copy the saves folder from the older version (keep the old version to be save though)

Hello :) I'd be interested in teaming up.  Do you have discord?

Oh, no the browser build has been up and running (mostly) okay, I just forgot to take that part out of the description - thanks for notifying me! That being said, I would still recommend downloading the game as it is the intended experience.

Hello, thanks for playing the game! Even if you start the game new it should remember which endings you got, so maybe you could try starting the game from the beginning and see if the pins show up. If not, I can only really recommend downloading the game if you are on a windows device. I mainly offer the web build because it's the only way for mac users to play them, but the engine I use isn't very optimised for web exports unfortunately :(  Sorry for the inconvenience!

Yes, as of now there is no option to reset your progress because I assumed people wouldn't be interested in doing 100% twice, but apparently I was wrong haha I'll add this option some time soon and will let you know once it's there :)

CoreEngine and MessageCore by Yanfly, SkipTitle by Yami, FilterController by Tsukimi, AltWindowFrame by Kadokawa and SyncSaveData by HimeWorks.

It works okay for me on edge so might not be a browser specific issue, I'm not sure. I'll put a disclaimer in the description for now. Thank you for the feedback!
