Description:
Kisekae Set System, a coding language originally intended for creating paper doll dress-up games, was created at the beginning of the 90’s and initially popularized through Japanese BBS systems. Eventually, it spread to English-speaking countries and across the world through the World Wide Web. Its ability to be ported to a wide range of computers and its simple coding language, alongside its graphical capabilities, resulted in creators who incorporated both interactive functionality and inventive and visually flavorful artwork, highly-focused on pixel art. This collection compiles a wealth of KiSS viewing software, KiSS sets in .lzh format, and the personal websites of several artists who contributed to the scene. Some files and graphics may contain cartoon nudity, either anatomically-accurate or not, and some may depict underage characters in a sexualized manner. English-language resources label these clearly, and frequently include their own detailed sitewide disclaimers. The Japanese-language resources may use a general “no users under 18” disclaimer, with the most easily-read being the “R18” label, for their content.
