Yandere Simulator Development Blog
Yandere simulator’s official demo is now available.
Pretty much everything I wanted to say today is contained in that video, but there’s just one thing I’d like to elaborate on…bugs!
I spent the past 6 hours hunting for bugs in the build, and actually found a bunch of critical game-breaking glitches! Bugs that made the screen turn white and never return to normal, bugs that made multiple scripted events occur simultaneously, bugs that made Yandere-chan blink out of existence during cut-scenes…I managed to fix every issue that I encountered, but dang, I’m really glad that I decided to bug-hunt before releasing the demo!
Because I could easily find so many issues during a simple, cursory playthrough of the demo, I’m sure there are other issues that escaped my notice. This first release of the demo is doubtlessly going to be a bit rough around the edges. I’ll probably spend the rest of the day watching people stream the demo so that I can take note of bugs and quickly prepare a bug-fixing update to release within 24 hours. If you run into any issues, I apologize in advance!
There’s only one thing that I foresee being a problem. I usually test the game at a resolution of 1280×720. I recently learned that the depth-of-field effect looks different depending on the resolution that you’re playing the game at. So, if the game looks blurry for you, you might want to try switching to a resolution of 1280×720, until I can release an update that makes the depth-of-field effect appear consistent across all resolutions.
While implementing Osana, I made dozens of fixes / changes / additions / improvements to the game. Because I was making so many rapid changes to the game, I didn’t actually log most of the fixes/additions. I can show you a changelog, but it won’t actually be a complete list of all the changes. Click “Continue Reading” if you’re interested in seeing it, anyway!
- Fixed bug that would cause a student to attempt to attend a “meeting” while standing at their desk, if the player arranged a meeting with that student and then advanced time by attending class.
- Camera sensitivity when aiming Yandere-chan’s phone camera is now determined by the Camera Sensitivity option in the Settings menu.
- Removed exploit that allowed the player to kill without consequence if they were standing in the middle of the Occult clubroom.
- The button prompts that appear at town will now change depending on whether the player is using a keyboard or controller.
- It is no longer possible for characters to get trapped if the player blocks their path using a jug of bleach.
- Fixed bug that allowed the player to stop a student who had been “Sent Home” by aiming a camera at them.
- Fixed bug that allowed the player to use the “Send Home” feature on a student who didn’t have a phone.
- Fixed bug that make it impossible to pick up the cello case, even after joining the Light Music Club.
- It is no longer possible for characters to get stuck at the entrance to the gardening club.
- Fixed bug that made it impossible to pick up one of the tapes in the basement.
- The Hardware Store on the street now has a shopkeeper.
- New music by CameronF305 .
- Implemented Osana.

Its been a while since I’ve played this, so its showtime!
I tried launching the demo, but its a blank screen.
I know I’m a little late on this but I want to Congratulate you on finally reaching that goal! We all knew you can do it! Sadly, I can’t play the demo due to having a not so great computer but at least I can watch others play it and I must say, it looks awesome! (despite the bugs here and there.)
Again, congrats on finally getting Osana out! We still rooting for you!
Osana is finally here! I think now would be the time to consider changing student routines or adding more students who walk around and talk to others. Maybe an extra 5 students per classroom, who don’t belong in clubs but do walk around and talk. Maybe like the two guys talking about anime, these people can talk in places around school that are conveniently nearby wherever the rivals are.
Well done YandereDev! You did excellent! Keep up the wonderful work!
I guess my first question is about the Announcement Room. I know it will be used for security in the future but what about when normal, who will it be used by? The Staff? Or students? Will there be announcements at different times of the day or just mornings and afternoons? Is this everyday or a weekly thing? If you were to implement weather would they talk about it? Upcoming exams? School field trips? Holidays? Special events like an upcoming play or special guest? A recycled introduction of motivation for students, and possibly an anthem (I’m from Canada and we always stood and sang O Canada). Would they talk about mysteries activities or events, caution and warn others? Remind students of the rules and so forth? Saying they found unsuspicious missing items? Talk about missing students and ask for prayers for their safe return or students to report any information? Talk about news of the city or town they live in? Sport Events? I can see numerous opportunities that could be used. I remember in Persona 4 Golden how at the beginning on the intercom a staff member told the students to stay in their classes until they had further information from the police and giving the students orders to return home immediately. And that just created a new question, if a teacher has a teacher’s pet report a body and it’s still there and they call the police why don’t they call or inform the rest of the staff that there is a murderer on the loose? That one of them could warn the students in the Announcement Room to go to their home room or hide, or have some type of cautionary action like in school shootings. I know it would be time consuming and more harder but I think it would make it more challenging and difficult and make more consequences for the player for murder. And maybe to prevent this the player would have to tamper or break or mess things up in the Announcement Room to buy more time before the school is in panic. Or till the Staff member goes to the Head Master who may or may not have access to his own system to access the intercoms. Also, for burning any student, I think there should be consequences for burning a student inside the school. I am wondering if the school will have fire alarms/smoke detectors and a fire sprinkler system. It would be more realistic to a school and make players cautious and mindful of were they should set someone on fire. Also, if the player uses a fire alarm and press the button or pull down depending there should also be consequences if the player tries to use it as a prank or to mess with the school. Like with the school roof and the punishment of a fence the fire alarm would be more secure, the second time would be glass and the third time could be with a key that only staff, possibly the Student Council and maybe Club Leaders would have access with keys (or perhaps cameras aimed to them). Also, with adding a fire distinguisher to the game as a weapon it should also be used as its purpose. If the player or other characters see something or someone on fire, they should try putting it out, I can see Staff, Student Council, Heroics and those who see their love ones on fire run and get the fire distinguisher and put them out. Also, I think dropping a fire distinguisher/ fire extinguisher in the incinerator would be naturally dangerous (and anything that is pressurized and could explode) and should be cleaned of blood, but if blood is found on it then I think as a punishment it should also be more secure similar to the alarm.
Also, I was thinking there should be consequences of stealing items particulary keys. If a student has lost something, they should report it and ask friends to help find it or themselves looking for it like Osana. If you frame someone for stealing a student’s property, they should hold a grudge or show resentment to the one they think stole from them, spreading rumors and lowering reputation or even ruining friendships. Also, for students who lost their things or have it stolen they should be more cautious for their belongings making it harder in the future. Also, if key’s go missing there should be concern and consequences for the players actions, locks being changed, and those who keys were stolen being more cautious and aware of their surroundings. And if caught with stolen items and key’s the punishment should be harsh. Also, if items go missing in certain parts of the school, mostly club room items that club members would notice they should also be awry and cautious that someone is stealing from them. And if the player is spotted red-handed by the one they stole from or their friends the player should be reported and that they should be punished by having a grudge on them by the one they stole from and their friends.
Also, a side note I would love if you added the flower option to the desk of a deceased student or a bullied student. Also, once you fully have the school completed and mapped out you should have a ‘Fire Escape Plan’/’Fire Emergency Evacuation Plan’ it would make the school more real and help players locate their position, Fire Exit, Assembly Point, fire distinguisher/ fire extinguisher and fire alarms are. Also I would hope you will be fallowing a school system similar to persona of exams, holidays and special events and so forth of the year, and the possibilities to do during holidays and such. Also, I think a School Store would be beneficial to the player, it could be used to buy gifts for rivals for the suitors to give, gifts for Senpai, as well as other possibilities. And I have a solution to the person behind the counter and it’s thanks to the drawing in the ‘Let’s Examine Persona – Part 2’ video. The illustration looks bored and tired, so what if they suffer from boredom and fall asleep? I had the idea from the video game ‘Disney’s Aladdin in Nasira’s Revenge’, in the game Aladdin has two types of weapons, his sword and a throwing weapon, in the level of Agrabah there is a man selling apple’s and is looking around cautiously until he falls asleep for a few seconds until he wakes up and repeats or unless Aladdin makes noise, so Aladdin has to do a certain walk to steal the apples. So, what if you wait for the store keeper to fall asleep them making a noise to signal the player that they are asleep or having Zzz’s popping out of their head so you can do what you need to do before they wake up. This is my suggestion of how you can have this kinda character and option in the game (but the Street is a great addition and I can see so much potential and possibilities). Also, I have another question regarding of friendships, mostly with the rivals. What if with the suitor or helping your rival and befriending them gives you bonus options, like rewards for sparing and keeping your rivals alive. Like that the friendship continues forth throughout the game, like if you were to let Osana live and when Amai appears what if there are options of seeking help from Osana and advice and so on and so worth till Megami appears, that you the player have all these friends you somehow bonded with and befriended and due to what you did they got your back and are supporting you, that since they found happiness in a suitor or whatever you helped them with they’d want the same for you. I think it would be interesting and unique and would give the surviving rivals a bigger role and purpose throughout the game. Also it be great if they could teach and help the player with prepairing to be with Senpai, like for example Amai teaching to make meals to prepaire for marriage or something.
Another thing I can’t help but think of is showing results from your actions, like if you helped Osana with her stalker you should show her distancing herself from Senpai and how he’d react, or seeing her with her boyfriend. Also I’d suggest that you have Raibaru and Osana talk about Kyuji and how she is feeling about him and is falling for him maybe conflicted with her feelings for both boys until she finally picks Kyuji seeing him as perfect or her dream man.
Also I think there should be consequences if you were spotted by the stalker when you are in his room, that he’d never forget you (despite his obsession with Osana and stealing her cat) also if you had her hook up with Kyuji I think you should show or explain if her issue was resolved or handled by the stalker situation and how that would affected her despite being inlove and having a boyfriend. Also I would highly recommend naming her cat, it would make it allot more personal and sweeter. Also I think for sneaking into the stalkers house I think the player should have the option to wear or not wear a mask and having the others react accordingly. Also I think with the stalkers reputation and by what his sister said the player should have had the option to unlock or pick at his door, also an explanation of were his parents went when grabbing the cat and leaving. I really enjoyed the stealth and sneaking aspect of the game and it was very exciting to see and makes me wonder if that could happen at the school.
Also with spreading gossip about Osana we should see the bullying take place and how it would affect her and how Senpai and Raibaru feel about it, and how others would react or say when she commits suicide.
Also this might be a milestone and would be allot of work but I think Yandere-Chan when in her different personas should talk and speak like how those personas show fitting to the character she is portraying herself as.
YandereDev, first i want to tell you that i love the demo. It has some bugs but i’m sure you can fix them. But i need to make two questions 1- The reputation bar and the sanaty bar don’t seem really…..Well, the old ones looked better. Are you going to replace them in futures updates ? 2- Do you hace some ideas of how to make the experience of eliminate Osana and Raibaru a little bit harder ? Because it’s too easy right now One other thing. Please, make the video of the character model first. I really want to see it
2. *have More substantially, the question of how to make a systems-driven game like this harder is almost as complicated as the question of how hard it should be. If you want to increase the difficulty, you need to tweak systems in such a way that they increase the difficulty of all the complicated paths, without making any of them unfun…and since all of this is subjective, it’s more a matter of tweaking the gameplay experience so it appeals to your target audience and fits your vision of what the experience “should” do.
TL;DR: Game design is more art than science…and like all things in art, small changes can have non-obvious impacts.
I really love it so far! and when all the bug fixes are done you should take a brake for a while you deserve it after all these years! :3 and I haven’t found many bugs expect the save thing where if you load a save everything goes bright
How Do You Download The Official Demo?
Oof, rough timing—just one day before a major release. Both of the people who are fans of Crusader Kings and Yandere Simulator will be missing the demo. Both of us!
Will you give us the cheat code for after you’ve unlocked cheats? Or is there none yet? Will we have to find it in-game or on the menu screen?
Thank you so much for fixing the light music cello case bug! It really bothered me!
Can Kaga Kusha become a key figure in Yandere simulator? By the way, add more stories behind Kaga Kusha?
He will, later in the game.
You can e-mail me if you want to ask questions about him.
How can I get the yandere Simulator Official demo? I looked everywhere but cant find it.
The demo game said that after the first time I defeat Osana, I could access the debug/extra menu but even though I beat Osana and get the screen that I can now access the debug/extra menu, I can’t figure out how to access it even if I look it up and do what people say should work, I can’t access the debug/extra menu. Is this normal? Or is it just not available at this time?
I ended osana, but I do not know how to.. how do I say this? I dont know how to get into week 2, I searched it up more then 1000 times, No bugs or anything except when i play the ABC killer challenge, i couldnt talk to hazu, kill him, or even make him notice me. and i accidently placed my wrench, and my puzzle cube down, i couldnt even pick it up!
how get the official demo of yandere sim? I’m having some issue
i finished the demo twice but i can’t access the debug commands or the modes. i tried to type different things in the cheat codes thingy in extras but it still doesn’t work?
I’m sorry, I’m not sure why it doesn’t work for some people. Apparently, if you keep trying, it eventually works.
please make it for Chromebook?

Yandere Simulator
Yandere Simulator is an upcoming stealth action video game in development and to be published by a man known as YandereDev with the help of numerous volunteers . He has been involved in game development in the past [1] and decided to create the game based on a positive reception [2] on 4chan. [3]
There are currently two rivals released in the game.
As of December 2015, there have been almost five million downloads of Yandere Simulator . [4]
The page for the controls is here .
The game can be downloaded from here!

A possible logo for the game, if renamed to "LoveSick".
Yandere Simulator may be renamed to "LoveSick" or "LoveSick: Yandere Simulator". This is because the literal meaning of "yandere" is very close to "love sick". Any renaming will take place long before the game is released. [5]
A possible logo for the game, if renamed to "LoveSick: Yandere Simulator".
This is further elaborated on in the video, " Should Yandere Simulator be renamed? " Simulator games are typically humorous and lighthearted, so people might think that Yandere Simulator is as well. YandereDev does not want it to be mistaken for a lighthearted game, but since the original name has been used so much, people will recognize it more. As a compromise, he might change the name to "LoveSick: Yandere Simulator."
Another possible logo for the game, if renamed to "LoveSick: Yandere Simulator".
YandereDev has also considered the name "Sick Love", and may create a poll about it in the future. [6]
There is already another game with the title Yandere , so YandereDev wants to avoid using that name. [7]

Release Date
Not including the coding (which is completed by YandereDev alone), almost all features, such as voice acting, 3D animations, 2D animations, texturing, and modeling, are done by volunteers. Because of the unpredictability of volunteer work, as well as changes in game developing decisions, it is impossible to predict exactly when the final game will come out. YandereDev talks about Yandere Simulator 's future in a video titled " Yandere Simulator: Past, Present, and Future "; the game may come out sometime in late 2022, this was later false.
It's difficult to determine how much of the game is finished at any given time. Some features that seem complete may be redone later, or a new feature may be suddenly planned. It's also hard to quantify how much 'completion percentage' a specific feature adds to the game.
The reason why the in-game percentage is there in the first place is to dissuade people from asking about why certain aspects of the game are missing or currently incomplete. The percentage goes up so that people understand that the game is progressing forward. [8]
As of August 31st, 2020, YandereDev had released the official demo.
Downloading
The game launcher for Yandere Simulator.
Yandere Simulator is currently only available for the Windows operating system. As of now, there are 4 ways to download the game:
- In some cases, the launcher may provide errors, and in most cases, this error is caused by the operating system (Windows) blocking the application's connection. This can be fixed by unblocking the file.
- On Mediafire .
- On MadDownload Mirror .
In the intro of 202X Mode, Ayano Aishi , the protagonist of the mode, is shown as having been an emotionless girl since childhood. When Ayano was a child, her mother told her that she'd meet someone special, just like she did. She has spent her entire life waiting for that day. One day, she met her Senpai , bringing color to her gray world. Ayano expresses negative thoughts towards those who get in her way. After Info-chan informs Ayano about her first rival, Osana Najimi , and the panty shot system.
There have been two old intros for the game, both giving some immediate backstory. Both are featured from Ayano Aishi 's perspective.
The first and original intro told the story of Ayano as an average teenage girl who yearned for love and found it when running to school. Her ideal lover, Senpai , was being scolded by Osana Najimi who was his tsundere childhood best friend. Info-chan informs Ayano about how she can help Ayano get rid of her rivals and about panty shots . The intro ends with Ayano thinking of her Senpai.
The second intro showed Ayano as an emotionless girl who found color in her gray world after meeting Senpai. Ayano expresses negative thoughts towards those who get in her way. After Info-chan informs Ayano about her first rival and the panty shot system and once again, the intro ends with that.
Starting 1980s Mode, there's a monologue where Ryoba Aishi , Ayano's mother, speaks about having the same dream where she meets, falls in love with, and starts a family with a boy , living happily ever after.
The tutorial is a step-by-step guide which teaches the player in understanding and utilizing the games basic mechanics. The tutorial consists:
- Weapons, Attacking, and Sanity
- Disposing of Corpses
- Mopping Up Blood
- Changing Clothing
- Cleaning Evidence
- Causing Distractions
- Dismembering Corpses
- Reputation and Socializing
- Photography and Yandere Vision
- Following and Kidnapping
- Poisoning and Drowning
- Puddles and Electrocution
- Heroes And Struggling
- Traps and Immolation
There are tutorial pop-ups that can be enable when starting the game.
In the future, Ayano's Cousin would offer additional tutorials, similar to the tutorial above. [10]
In Yandere Simulator , the protagonist has five days to prevent her current rival from confessing to Senpai. Both 202X Mode and 1980s Mode have ten weeks and ten rivals, with one appearing at the start of each week. [11] Currently, there's ten completed weeks in 1980s Mode, while in 202X Mode only two. The demo only show the first week of 202X Mode. [12]
Weapons of Yandere Simulator. December 26th, 2018.
Weapons are items the player character uses to kill NPCs.
At least thirty weapons are planned for the game, but YandereDev has confirmed that they will only be things that can be found in a Japanese school environment. [13] Guns [14] and other ranged weapons are unlikely to be added into the final game. [15]
Personas determine how an NPC responds when they witness a murder or see a corpse . In the future, it's possible that personas may dictate voices, animations, dialogue, etc. [16]
There are currently seventeen personas implemented into the game:
- Teacher's Pet
- Friendly But Strict
- Social Butterfly
- Phone Addict
The Sanity Meter.
Killing , tranquilizing , pushing , drowning , and dismembering an NPC will cause the player's true nature to show through.
When the player has low sanity, the music and environment become more distorted. As of the August 15th, 2016 Build, sanity affects how long and how messy Ayano's kills will be. [17]
If a student catches the player with low sanity, her reputation will drop. If a teacher catches her with low sanity, she will be sent to the guidance counselor . If Senpai catches her with low sanity, she will become heartbroken.
The protagonist's reputation is how she is viewed by the students. If her reputation drops below -100, Senpai will no longer be willing to accept her love confession, causing an instant Game Over. [18]
Reputation can be raised by complimenting students and lowered by gossiping about others. There are other ways to change reputation, but not all methods have been implemented yet.
This mechanic partially determines how other people will interact with the player.
Ayano's Phone
Ayano's phone, which is not present in 1980s Mode, can do a number of actions for the player, for example:
- Take photos
- See info on NPCs
- Save the game
- Request certain Panty Shot Favors from Info-chan, such as Schemes , Services and Drops
Yandere Vision
Yandere Vision shows important objects outlined in certain colors through walls. Some objects, like buckets , have outlines by default, but others need certain actions to be performed before being outlined.
Ayano can take and send a photo of an NPC with a working AI to Info-chan so that the NPC will be outlined in a certain color, with the default being green. This color can change if the NPC is affected by certain events. The player is able to tag students in the student profile menu so that they will appear with a black circle around them in Yandere Vision.
Study Points
Study Points.
Study Points can be used to gain skills from Biology, Chemistry, Language, Physical Education, and Psychology. Most of the effects of study points haven't been implemented yet.
The number of study points the player receives depends on when she shows up to class. If they shows up on time, they will receive five study points. If they shows up late, they will receive one to four study point(s), depending on how late they were.
If the player fails in her various endeavors in ‘’Yandere Simulator’’, then the player will get a Game Over, immediately ending the game and requiring the player to start over or from a load state.
There are currently nine Game Over screens:
- Apprehended
- Heartbroken
- Senpai Lost
202X Mode, also known as Story Mode, is the main mode of Yandere Simulator . The player plays as Ayano Aishi , who must eliminate ten rivals, one in each week for ten weeks. [11] Currently, it only lasts 2 weeks.
LoveSick Mode
LoveSick mode is a darker version of the 202X Mode where mechanics such as Easter Eggs are removed to provide a more serious atmosphere.
In this mode, Ryoba Aishi , Ayano's mother, is the protagonist. She appears in the Mysterious and Basement Tapes . Like 202X Mode, the player will have to eliminate ten rivals over the course of ten weeks. However, it has a different story with different rivals and is not as elaborate as Story Mode. There are no phones, internet, Info-chan , or anything that didn't exist in the 1980s. This mode has stricter school rules and some backstory.
Custom Mode
Custom Mode allows players to create their own playable scenarios and share them with others. [19] Currently, it is only available for 1980s Mode .
In this mode, the player can pose a selected students in a variety of different ways, such as re-positioning their body parts or changing their hairstyle.
Mission Mode
In this mode, the player is given different mission in which they need to kill a certain student. Increasing the difficulty level will result in more objectives that the player must complete.
Planned Modes
Endless mode.
In this mode, the game will randomly generated NPCs. [20] Since this mode will never end, the objective is not to "acquire" Senpai but instead achieve the highest score. [21]
This mode may have been renamed to "Random Mode". [22]
- The first Kickstarter stretch goal will likely be to repay the volunteers for all the valuable work they have done. The second goal would then be improving production values and adding more features. [25]
- If the Kickstarter raises a lot of money, then an expert character modeler could build a schoolgirl model with adjustable hips, butt, and thighs. [26]
- If the Kickstarter gains a ludicrous amount of money, YandereDev would love to have an opening sequence, an OVA, a commercial, etc. [27]
- Yandere Simulator is not available on MacBook yet, however, YandereDev has provided a website that allows you to play Windows' games such as Yandere Simulator on MacBook.
- YandereDev would like the game to have an opening cutscene. He is imagining something similar to Madoka Magica's opening, Touhou Project's song Bad Apple , or Kiss me Aishiteru by C-ute. He is not sure how the final song will turn out. [28]
- As of October 2015, Yandere Simulator has over 10,000 lines of code. The script that governs student AI is 3,924 lines long. YandereDev would like to reduce this number drastically. [29]
- More story will be added to the game, but it is a low priority for the purposes of a debug build. [30]
- If Yandere Simulator were to have a sequel, the goals would be to have better graphics, better animations, more rivals, more elimination methods, a deep story instead of a deep backstory, fully animated 2D cutscenes, many environments, and multiple playable protagonists. [31]
- YandereDev stated in September 2015 that it is unlikely that Ayano will be able to disguise herself as another character because that would be too close to plagiarizing Hitman . [32]
- The amount of space Yandere Simulator will take up when completed is most likely 25 GB max, 10 GB minimum. [33]
- YandereDev would like Yandere Simulator to be as challenging as a good Hitman game. [34]
- There will be no health bar, but it is possible that a "kendo sparring match" mini-game will be implemented. [35]
- Much of Yandere Simulator 's music has been composed by a man named Henry Rofkar. He is a musician from the band "Only Wednesday." [36]
- The only way Yandere Simulator would be canceled is if the entire Internet simultaneously stopped caring about Yandere Simulator , a doctor told YandereDev he had only two months to live, or a meteor. [37]
- YandereDev wants nothing in the game to be random and wants no advantages or disadvantages based on luck or chance [38] so that speedrunners can develop strategies and/or tactics. [39] However, there was once a mention of a "Random Mode". [40]
- YandereDev believes that the current base model is unsatisfactory, but to implement a new one would be very time-consuming. [42]
- YandereDev would like to implement quicksaves into the game if he learned how. [43]
- YandereDev wants to avoid adding too many supernatural features. [44] Eventually, both the silly and supernatural will only appear in the game if the player takes certain steps to unlock them. [45]
- In June 2015, YandereDev got an offer for Yandere Simulator from a publisher/developer, but it was not appealing to him. [46]
- In the future, Ayano will be able to kill 99% of the NPCs in the game, but there will be one or two exceptions to this rule. [47]
- There will only be weekends in the game if a small town is added. Weekends could be used to get extra study points, but having a small town would open more options. [48]
- YandereDev has received feedback from an unknown person who attended TwitchCon, saying that the game is banned because the player can murder children. [49]
- Most of the game's current graphics are just placeholders. [50]
- Adding quick time events would greatly increase the number of animations required for the game. [51]
- The game will most likely not have certain "survival" features such as hunger. [52]
- This idea may have changed since then, as it may now rain in the game in the future. [54]
- YandereDev is considering locking doors as a gameplay mechanic that can be used by the player or the NPCs. [55]
- YandereDev used the font "Futura Condensed Medium" for pink dialogue. [56]
- In the original title screen concept, the title was written in Japanese katakana as "ヤンデレシミュレーター". (yandereshimurētā)
- Text boxes may be used to convey useful information on the first day, for example, explaining what cleaning time is. [57]
- YandereDev was inspired by Tokimeki Memorial for some of the game's elements. [58]
- It is unlikely to get other playable protagonists besides Ryoba and Ayano according to YandereDev. [59]
- YandereDev explained that he may set the game in 2020, due to the fact that each time an actual year passes, he has to shift every event forward to one year. [60]
