I feel the same way, it's amazing how much the game tells without saying practically nothing. Nothing could hype me more than a new version, there are a lot of fangames and some of them are really good, but none of them can compare to the original in my opinion.
I heard kikiyama answered some mails back in 2011 before she disappeared from the internet, perhaps she wanted to make us think that she's gone to add more mystery to the game, but i dunno, a lot of things could have happened since then.
For me the strangest part is that no one seems to have an old version of the game, and the links are no longer available, which is really sad because an old version would be a totally amazing experience.
