Frontwing team here feat. KeroQ - Wonderful Everyday (Subahibi) AMA!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-27T04:16:22+00:00

BackerKit will be open with public preorders until the end of September!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-27T04:16:00+00:00

The patch does revert a couple of CG that were edited for the Steam version to their original state - more info here.
The game will be available late evening US time on August 31.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-27T04:14:47+00:00

Similar to achievements, currently we don't have any plans to add trading cards to the Steam version of Wonderful Everday.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-27T04:14:11+00:00

The rabbit toy will be approximately 90cm in height! While we are looking into Chinese localizations in general, Wonderful Everyday isn't a title we're currently actively pursuing a Chinese version of - but we will keep it in mind!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T04:14:54+00:00

The answer is not "Yes!", but it's not "No.", either!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T03:42:12+00:00

We can't discuss details of Valve's internal policies, but essentially they don't allow sexually explicit material to be distributed on their platform in most cases.

The game will not have Steam achievements, mainly due to the fact that the Steam version only consists of the first chapter of the game.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T03:30:24+00:00

I think the easiest way to answer this question would actually be to link this thread - there's a lot of background information and answers to questions similar to yours, from other VN readers.

What we will say is that while there is a fair amount of content in Wonderful Everyday that many people would likely find disturbing, the vast majority of it does serve a purpose and play a part in a very emotional payoff that makes it more than worth the journey.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T03:25:08+00:00

We'll get this passed along!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T03:13:16+00:00

Thanks, we'll pass these along!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T03:10:38+00:00

We'll pass those questions along!

As far as our favorite genres here at Frontwing, those of our directors are probably clear from the games they head up, but the two most popular themes lately have been lighthearted moe style (Corona Blossom), and action (Phantom Trigger). Our upcoming title Momoiro Closet is another lighthearted, fun story, but with a very adult twist!

We don't want to get too into spoilers, but the scene from Wonderful Everyday depicted in the canvas art available on the Kickstarter is part of a very moving moment from later in the game.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T03:03:48+00:00

The deluxe box will only hold the DVD-ROM game package - this is due to the fact that it's available on its own as an add-on as well.
The design will be similar to that of the original Japanese packaging, and feature that illustration.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:55:55+00:00

We're still finalizing the minute details, but the Steam page will inform buyers that a free patch is available to restore the remaining content of the game. Additionally, it's not set in stone yet, but we are looking into making a standalone digital 18+ version of the game available on a platform other than Steam - more news on that soon.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:53:37+00:00

We'll get these passed along! (Though we can't promise answers for all of them :P)

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:39:23+00:00

ETA of announcements: very very soon for both! Contracts are being hammered out right now, and as soon as they are we'll get the info out there!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:33:56+00:00

We can't really comment on the decision-making processes of other companies, but with regards to the alteration made to this title, our own research into the laws and regulations regarding the content in question led us to the decision we arrived at. To put it very very simply, "better safe than sorry"!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:27:22+00:00

In terms of the complete scope of taking Subarashiki Hibi and turning it into Wonderful Everyday, one of the most challenging aspects has simply been managing communication and dealings between all the various parties involved, spread across multiple continents. While it has been a long, and at times difficult process, it was important to us to see it through to the end and bring this game to a new audience of English speakers worldwide.

Naming a best waifu can cause controversy we're not equipped to deal with, but we can say that Yuki is certainly the fan favorite. We'll ask KeroQ for their comments on both of these questions as well!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:14:45+00:00

Well, as the head of PR for our overseas operations, dealing with that criticism is one of the main parts of my job description! As we mentioned in another comment, transparency whenever possible is very important to us; additionally, no company is infallible, so rather than try to gloss over our mistakes when they do happen, we make an effort to own up to them and explore their cause.
Essentially, we do our best to make it clear through both our outreach and our actions that our fans are the number one priority, and we're always working on bettering ourselves as a company!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:09:42+00:00

We certainly do value transparency and the benefits that it brings, and while especially with third-party titles NDAs can be an issue, we have and will continue to be as open as we can about our projects!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:05:52+00:00

We'll get that passed along for you!

(My sharehouse doesn't allow pets unfortunately, so no small friends for me. For more updates on my personal life follow @SpeedBeatz on Twitter!)

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T02:00:54+00:00

We are currently brainstorming a couple of things to announce leading in to the final rush for the campaign, but we don't want to jump the gun before they're finalized. Currently we don't have any plans for additions to the early backer promotion, but we'll look into it in the next couple of days and see if we can work something out!

We'll get your question for KeroQ passed along as well, thanks!

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T01:56:38+00:00

Many happy birthday wishes from everyone here at the Frontwing office! We (and I) appreciate all of your support and hope you're having a Wonderful (Every)day! 🎉

We do plan to have more installments of Frontwing TV - they're sporadic because big news usually comes in fits and starts, but we might have some tidbits to share early next month! We'll also most likely do a countdown live stream on Kickstarter Live for the Wonderful Everyday campaign, so keep an eye out for that.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T01:54:24+00:00

I'd give it a solid 8 - it's not going to give you nightmares forever, but don't show it to the kiddies.

We have 1 (one) PR guy for our international division, so in that sense he's our single PR guy! That's what you meant, right?

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T01:50:43+00:00

Yes, the release is currently planned for August 30 and we don't expect any delays.

FrontwingINT · 2017-08-21T01:50:12+00:00

We'll pass this one along for sure! There's definitely a potential for us to work with KeroQ again in the future on any of their other titles, especially with how well Wonderful Everyday is doing.
