Katawa Shoujo: Re-Engineered

[inFantry-32]

Seems that the Steam release of Katawa Shoujo(2024) is just an engine swap that fixes bugs and improves compatibility with modern hardware.

I recommend going to the Discover Store or Flathub & just installing:

"Katawa Shoujo: Re-Engineered"

Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/sh.fhs.KatawaShoujoReEngineered

Web Version(can be played on any system): https://play.fhs.sh

Github: https://github.com/fleetingheart/ksre

Katawa Shoujo Forums: https://ks.fhs.sh/viewtopic.php?t=13532

Regineered is in HD, Open Source, etc.

It seems like the better version since Katawa Shoujo(2024) isn't a remaster it's just an engine port essentially.

Re-Engineered also has widescreen support lmfao.

The Re-Engineered version forces the game down to widescreen cutting many CGs down, and has bugs affecting routes. Like in Emis where depending on your choice with the teacher it may just skip a crucial scene.

The only thing the Re-Engineered version has over this release is its controller support, and HD upscaled assets. Which I view as more of a downgrade since I prefer them being displayed at what they were natively drawn at for the game. This however is more subjective unlike the objective issues like routes being broken and CGs being cropped to fit the screen,
