On one hand - great, the original art was beyond atrocious. :)
On the other - confirmed no keys for Grouupes bundle buyers. :(
Also Unity and not Ren'Py? WTF?

Yup, for better or worse. On one hand, great they're putting a lot of effort into the Higurashi Steam release, with new art, a new translation using a new engine to make it available on more platforms easily.

On the other, since its a new version of the game now, Groupee bundle buyers will definitely not be getting Steam keys.

Though nice of them to be giving the new translation steam keys to those who bought the game on their site.

Turns out Higurashi for Steam release WILL be getting new art, and feature new effects and such as the game is being made in Unity to port it out to multiple platforms.

First Chapter of the visual novel will release on Steam later this year, you can also buy the original game with the updated translation from their website, and people who bought the original game from their website will get the new translation and updated version at no cost at all.

Thank God.
Was really thinking of skipping the game over the originals artwork.

Hmm, might give it a look. I remember watching the anime and enjoying it overall.

Do we get a steam key if we purchase from their website?

Pure Horror for all the wrong reasons.

If it's wrong, I don't want to be right.
Am happy they're updating the artwork of the original though.

People don't like R07's art?

Uncultured swines.

I enjoyed the cuddly slime monsters the game features.

It's official, this thread is more creepy than the PSN Thread / underage miley cyrus thread.

Higurashi is a horror mystery game disguised as a moe kawaii-desu game, it also spawned a popular anime. Honestly it's quite grotesque.

Awww, but didn't you think the original artwork was kawaii?

Certainly helped the horror tone of the game, in its own ways.
Hah, the old art grew on me.

I'll never forget Rena's dead eye'd stare. It was so simplistic but it worked, somehow.

Was the best image I could find but even that's low quality. :(

I should really finish the story at some point. I think I read the first three and never completed it.

I know I must be out of the loop at this point, and I hear their names getting thrown about everywhere, but who are the yogscast? Aren't they just some MInecraft Youtube channel? How come they're so popular?
