For that, there is this HD-patch:

From what I remember, it was initially developed as a colab on an imageboard website like 2chan.
The game is a bishoujo-style AVN that takes place at a High School for disabled children in Japan. The MC moves to this school after a long time away from his old school due to a heart defect.
There are five main female LI, each with their own disability.
It's worth a play for the story and characters. The graphics is showing its age.
Official foreword from the game manual:
Thank you for playing Katawa Shoujo. It’s been a long road to this point, not only for the developers at Four Leaf Studios, but also for the many people who contributed from outside the development team, the alpha and beta testers, and the fans who have waited until release.
It all began in the year 2000, with an extra page in a doujin from the artist RAITA titled “Schuppen Harnische”. With development starting in the year 2007, inspired by this page, and final release occurring in 2012, a lot has changed in all of our lives during this time. But Katawa Shoujo has been there throughout and none of us will forget the experience of producing it. That goes not only for the developers, but for everyone who’s been involved in this project.
In the words of a certain heroine, “It’s fun to drag more and more people into my life.” Katawa Shoujo has dragged in people of all ages from all over the world, working in many different occupations, leading many different lifestyles. Some are now friends, others are enemies, while many are only a little less than strangers. It’s even dragged in you who are reading this now. That’s how life is, and how people are. And in the end, that’s what Katawa Shoujo is about.
Four Leaf Studios are happy to present Katawa Shoujo. We hope you will enjoy it.
