A little about myself and the Kawaii Pet Megu Port project

Hello, this is the Developer team speaking.

I think I should talk a little about myself and the project as a whole, so maybe I can gain some trust from you users and establish a good relationship with you.

First of all, Nobuo Sugiyama is a fictional character which represents the "megu team", so he is the front man for all announcements and stuff. When I have something personal (like this post and the disclaimer) will be written clearly on the introduction. This project is fan-made not related to GREE INC or Feymann INC. Any inquiries should be send to this blog or the e-mail sugiyama.megu@gmail.com . Don't e-mail the original developer please.

About myself,  Like you guys ,I loved kawaii pet megu and was deeply sad when it GREE decided to shut down KPM.  I'm currently a PhD Foreign Researcher on an university in Japan with some programming skills and (a lot of ) free time. My megu (was an ALF called Bolino) travelled with me from my mother country to Japan and made company to me ever since.

Since the game shut down, I've been wondering if I should start a project remaking the game from scratch. On the past three months I decided to do it just for practicing my programming skills (I have an interest in game development but I've never made a game fully). The project grew and it became the Kawaii Pet Megu Port Project.

The "Development team" is composed of myself and (occasionally) my girlfriend, doing some drawings on her free time. As you can see, the "development team" is VERY small, so I ask you to have patience with debugging, updates and replying e-mails.

I apologize for the shady link and installer I used to distribute. That was the first free file host that I found and it actually caused a really bad impression. The installer was not as I expected (no desktop icon pretty much killed it), I will probably distribute as a .ZIP next time. Either way, does anyone knows a good place to host the executable? at least something less shady...

 About virus and stuff, unless you are downloading from another source other than the one available on this blog, I can guarantee that it is not a virus nor contain one. Fortunately I'm not smart enough to program a virus (and I don't even want to).

Regarding the several bugs related to dlls and stuff, I apologize, since this is my first project which the program I made goes directly to 3rd party users, so probably a lot of stuff may slip. Nevertheless, I want to keep contact with the users, I will gladly read all those e-mails. Also I'm in Japan so my timezone is weird, so again it may take some time to reply.

best regards (and sorry for the terrible release  >.>)
