Sequels?

#1 by hanako - Apr 13 2007

There are currently no plans to develop sequels to any of these games. But if we did, which game would you rather see a follow-up to?

I voted for Summer Schoolgirls, although I would love to see a sequel be made out of Charm School, too.

BTW, will there be a Cute Knight 2? I would love to see that.

There will be eventually, yes, but I won't be working on that until Fatal Hearts reaches a more-complete stage. I have lots of plans and notes already but I don't want to reveal anything since the timeframe isn't known and some of the plans may change when I actually get into the code.

Oh I see. That's so cool. I can't wait to see Cute Knight 2. Cute Knight 1 was so great so I'm sure a sequel will be, too.

I voted for Sweet dreams that game I tort was exiting and funny, Sorry to say but the newer games is so fast, and I like to search and find clues and all that was possible in sweet dreams
but I got the summer schoolgirls and cutie knight that was reel god when I learned to don’t let her age, then the game vas really fun and I cud chose the end by my self Hi, Hi.. But Sweet dreams are my favourite. (And that’s one was for free?) Well like all the games just nagging...

.............. Cute Knight 2............. *giggles like a girl* brilliant, i cant wait. Even though most guys don't enjoy that kinda stuff, i do, don't matter too me if the presentation is a bit girly, a good RPG is a good RPG.

could there be a fatal hearts 2 but with more choices and more endings cuase i just loved fatal hearts

I can only give the standard answers:


1. If there is another Visual Novel Adventure, it won't be a direct sequel - it won't be Fatal Hearts 2. Because there are so many endings and I don't want to pick one and say that it's 'right' and carry on from there. So if there is another game, it will be different characters and a different story.

1a - If a publisher picks up Fatal Hearts to be sold in stores on CDs like with Cute Knight, there may be bonus paths/endings added to the existing game for the retail version. However, no company has offered yet.

2. Not any time soon, it was too draining to make. A game heavy in puzzles AND story AND concepts takes a lot out of a brain! (And even if I do ever start a sequel, such a game takes a couple of years to write.) If there is another one like it, it won't be for a long while.

3. The best way to encourage sequels is to get all your friends to buy it, because if it sells enough copies, that's a strong motivating factor to do it again.

I couldn't afford to make another at the moment. Maybe sometime. I don't know.

Although it was short, I really liked Summer Schoolgirls. It would be cool if you made a sequel that was a whole semester, or all of Freshman year instead of just one week.
