As of today, it’s been 6 years since I began working on Yandere Simulator!
A special occasion like this calls for a major update, so I’ve chosen today to release a big feature that peopl...

2020-03-15 06:52:39 +0000 UTC View PostYandere Simulator is a romance-themed game, so Valentine's Day is the perfect time for a big announcement or big update. That was the plan, actually, but things didn't work out.

Hot damn, this is an exciting point in time for the project!
We are currently in what I'd describe as the "Final Stage" of implementing Osana. As of now, Osana is fully functional, and what ...
Twelve whole minutes of Osana and Raibaru progress! Whoo hoo! Enjoy!
Usually I try to offer some extra insight here on Patreon, but on this case, there simply isn't much for me to say that ha...

I'm sorry that so much time passed between the previous update and this one!
I've been making steady progress on Osana/Raibaru, but I can't visually demonstrate most of it; it's all either s...
Good news! I've been making lots of progress with Osana and Raibaru lately. In this video, I talk about the sorts of things I've been working on.
This video isn't really about showing off eve...

Around 5:30 into the video, I discuss something that I believe will be very relevant to Patrons: I'm currently at a phase in the game's development where everything I'm working on is a spoiler, a s...

Hi, Patrons!
While working on this video, I realized that the video lacked some critical information:
“Are you finished working on Raibaru?”
“When will you releas...
Although the game has been in development for over 5 years, I never prioritized the creation of a proper intro cutscene. I felt that I couldn't justify working on story cutscenes while there was st...

Usually, I only write a post on Patreon when I'm ready to show off some progress in the form of a YouTube video. I'm still preparing the game's next big feature, so I'm not read...
I recently decided to add tutorials to the game to help new players. In order to determine what type of information would be beneficial for a new player, I had to look at the game through the eyes ...

I feel like I accomplished so much over the past month!
It's been a long time since my last progress report, and I feel like I need to explain the reasons for that. It has nothing to do with lost motivation or low productivity; quite the contrary! I've ...
2019-01-01 20:11:29 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a few weeks since the last time I made any sort of public posts or announcements, so I decided it would be a good idea to let my Patrons know that I'm still around and still working on the g...

I try my best to avoid making “defensive” videos. I really, really don’t like the idea of spending 10~15 minutes telling people, “No! You’re wrong!” The act of defending yourself als...

15 new students have been added to the game!
In this video, I describe their routines and explain the reasons why they were given those routines from a game design perspective.
This video really should have been titled, "Why is Yandere Simulator taking so long to be developed?" because that's the question that it seeks to answer.
In short, this video is something of a...
Recently, I've seen a lot of people expressing concern about the game's development. One of the topics that comes up most frequently is the lack of progress related to Osana. I've made a video to expl...
