Whenever I click on the .exe file it asks me if I want to allow the app to make changes to my computer. Is this safe to do?
This is one of a very few games/VN's that need to install on your computer instead of just run from a folder, so yes it is safe.

Ok, so for the 10 year anniversary of this masterpiece (a bit late but hey, it is still 2022 isn't it ;) here is something I probably should have posted here a while ago: a fan made (and sadly incomplete) Misha route VN.

Here is the story: This route was posted on Gamefaqs in 5/4/2012 by user "Maharoba". He was at first posting it in text form then made it into a VN. He intended to complete it then sadly went MIA. The download link for it that he provided has since died, so this is one of the very few surviving copies of it (I re-discovered it while randomly checking out my "Finished Games" folder in my old laptop). Considering that, I honestly felt a responsibility to upload it and share it here so that it doesn't completely die out and more KS fans can check it out, especially considering that I remember enjoying it. With all that being said, here is the game guys. Hope you enjoy it and share your thoughts :).

For anyone else interested in a Misha route, moddb user GrandNep released a full route based on two other fanworks.

how do I change MC's name?
You don't.
It could be done, just not in game. You would have to open up the script files (all of them, since it's split up by route and day) and replace all instances of "Hisao," "Hicchan," etc. with whatever you want to name him. You'll need the scripts in .rpy format, so you'd either need an open-source release or to decompile them yourself from either a .rpa or the .rpyc, depending on the version. There are free tools for either.

I wrote/adapted this very simple script for another game that you could save as an .rpy-file in your own folder. Create a text-file (called my_replacements.txt, perhaps?) and change .txt to .rpy:
Python:
init python:
    import re
    def word_replace(text):
        ## Take a text and replace words that match the key in a dictionary with the associated value.

        def translate(match):
            word = match.group(0)
            return replace_dict.get(word, word)
   
        return re.sub(r"\b[A-Za-z_]\w*\b", translate, text)

    ## Create a dictionary of key_word:replace_with pairs.
    ## One pair each line. End each line except last with comma.
    replace_dict = {
        "MCname" : "MyName",
        "MCNAMESHOUTED" : "MYNAME",
        "MClastname" : "MyLastName"
    }

## figure out what main character is defined as ("MC") when speaking and rename ("JohnDoe").
define MC = Character("JohnDoe")
define config.say_menu_text_filter =  word_replace
Just replace the text and definitions and add those you feel need changed. It requires a little know-how of coding to adapt.
Place it in the folder \(Katawa Shoujo)\game\ when finished.

I don't even remember how many years ago it was I played this, it was when it was first released. I remember Rin and the blind girl being the best routes. Didn't a different person write each route?
