DOZEN'S PROFILE

Getting her in the usual sense is actually easier than with any character published so far. It's not hard to tell the difference between a Bad Move and the other two kinds; At least for you, since you know there are such things. You will also get her in every ending of the love route. The hard part is to get an ending without some bitter aftertaste to it. It's just too frickin' easy to get a good ending with everyone else, and there isn't a single bad one to scare you away from just clicking around. I want to give players a challenge. I grew up on games like Fate/Stay Night and goshdarn School Days! School Days. Yes, the game where bad choices end up with the protagonist's head cut off, intestines outside or soul broken. While you're looking. I'm not putting you through anything remotely close, so don't complain, our target audience have seen worse. This game, after all, is on a much nicer boat, don't you think? BECAUSE YES I THINK IT'S A NICE BOAT. I'm not sinking it for you, I promise.

Ummm... Nope. You'll see it's otherwise when I release the first batch.
AND about that! I made you guys a chart featuring my progress so far and will update it weekly for your convenience!

The events are named for testing's sake, tho I tried to nick them thematically.(Try to guess what they mean! I dare you!) And yes, these are just the starters. No kidding. Yes, I'm a lunatic.
Legend:
What the route includes currently:
Kyouki(duh) and her general craziness
The first addon featuring built-in character Takuya
Unusual and frequent events
An attempt at establishing a new Guiness record entry
The usual antics and monologues of The Player
Author's comments in the files, for players and especially you guys!
Planned:
A way to enter Akari's route without 'being a sucker/asshole' among the requirements
The friend route(Not telling you)
Punching Hiro in the face(What? What?! Come on, we all hate that guy! And it will happen in an appropriately dramatic moment!)
A nice, lighthearted story... On the friend route. The love route on the other hand...

Yup. Cerebus syndrome applied. Want your happy ending? Earn it. Good luck.
...
Like the panic pic?:D I worked a big lot on those eyes!

? = Not yet implemented events.
Amber boxes = Implemented events.
Bad move = If you get one of these these events, you've done something wrong; not simply in the social sense, but the moral one. Choose carefully in these, faliure may forbid you from Kyouki events althogether!
Neutral move = Does not affect the story much. Will either lead to the usual dating sequence or the friend route(Don't ask! I won't tell you yet!).
Good move = This implies you have done something awesome! If you play your cards right in these events, the player gets lots of dates' worth of affection so you will have more time for things of importance!(What are those? Can't say...) You can only enter these by passing checks, so keep your stats in...uh... check!>.>
Friend route: This is something new, and go away I'm not telling you!X(
Love route: In the love route, Kyouki is your official gf; This implies a lot of changes in dialogue. You WILL eventually enter this if you pursue her, and afterwards dating others becomes complicated. Not that it's impossible, but do NOT try it on first runs! It won't end well for you.

Isn't tsundere like you know... that red-haired girl in the game? A person who acts rude to you first but deep inside he/she's soft or something?
The girl you are referring to is Rio, and yes, she is a strong example of the classic tsundere. A tsundere(the 'tsun' part meaning 'harsh' and the 'dere' meaning 'sweet') is either
1. a 'classical' tsundere, who's behavior goes trough an extreme emotional swap(either from positive to negative or vice versa) regarding someone/something, in which case the change is gradual but striking, or
2. a 'modern' tsundere, who hides his or her actual feelings(again, either positive or negative) behind giving off the expression of the exact opposite, in which case the character switches between the two moods whenever, even multiple times per minute. And there is also
3. the coodere(or kuudere), a variant of both, who's default mood is... well... basically 'not giving a single f*k', acts cold or simply neutral towards everything, and then switches to one of the extremes, which is very spectacular since most people usually have a hard believing they have feelings at all.

This talk of what a "tsundere" is would point to 21 Ways. Possibly Mayu as well. I dunno. I don't think I have that good a handle on the meaning of "tsundere" yet.
Quite right! Mayu is a classical tsundere with stun as her default mood, and 21 is a modern one with dere as the core setting.
*Nerd mode off*
Gah, my head hurts... SO! Let's count! :D
1. Riho
2. Miki
3. Akari
4. Mayu
5. 21
Five tsunderes! We rule! XD

Thanks for trying to help, but none of your ideas gonna cut it. On the bright side:
1. @flowerthief: Miki is a tsundere as well! That makes two! <party!>
2. While I have no clue about synthetisators, I remembered that I was tought how to write and read music(Kind of redundant considering how much I do both dayly) so I looked around if there are any programs using 'plain' old music notes instead of DJ-board mimicry.
Turns out there are some.
I recomposed the main Taros theme's Deep brass solo from TA: Kingdoms(Try to get your hands on that one if you're into RTS, Cavedog knew how to make games) in a-minor, converted it into MP3... guys, it was beautiful. For a freeware istrumental copycat software, anyway. The system can't handle slurs but it's still more than I'd ever hoped for. I'm actually getting confident about this.

Gah, I still can't find a proper theme for Kyouki! There is just no song on the planet that says 'crazy' without the 'axe' part. Not one!T.T Can you guys help me out? Maybe you can think of a track from an older game?

I guess it can't hurt by this time.
The first release is slowly drifting closer. At this pace I estimate it's due in a month at tops. I'm suprised I was able to maintain the basic idea without significant changes. I really must be serious about this, huh?
