[edit] Development
Kinoko Nasu originally wrote Mahōtsukai no Yoru as a novel in the winter of 1996 and completed with the intent of showing it to people other than his friends. After submiting the novel to several competitions Nasu was unable to keep the page count down and later moved on to other projects. After forming Type-Moon with Takashi Takeuchi and releasing several projects under it Takeuchi suggested remaking Mahōtsukai no Yoru so it could be released before their next planned project Girls' Work[1]
In April 2008, a game version of Mahōtsukai no Yoru was announced.[2] Unlike Type-Moon's previous games, Mahōtsukai no Yoru will not be an ero-game, and will feature Koyama Hirokazu as the lead artist in place of Takeuchi. The game was set to release sometime in 2009 however after several delays, the game received a September 2010 release date.[3] In September, however, Type-Moon announced that the release date has been pushed back to winter 2011, and later to sometime in 2011.[4] A demo of the game was made available on December 15, 2011, and the full game will be released on April 12, 2012.
