Never-Before-Seen Artwork

In 1980s Mode, the player can snoop through a rival's bookbag to find magazines containing pictures of hot male fashion models. The rivals have drawn little hearts next to the traits they find attractive - for example, if a rival thinks that guys with ponytails are hot, she will draw little hearts around a model's ponytail.

"Hot Male Fashion Model Magazine" artwork was created for both 1980s Mode and 202X. However, I ultimately decided that the "snoop through bookbag" feature should be replaced with a new "cyberstalk on social media" feature. I really didn't want the illustrations of hot fashion models to go to waste, though, so I came up with a way to repurpose them; the player will be able to find these pictures while looking through a rival's "Liked" posts on social media.

Still, though - these illustrations are just too gorgeous to not share in their full resolution, so I've decided to display them here. Take a look! Admire these beautiful, sexy men! Oh, so hot! Right?

Can I ask how this process goes of finding a voice actor and working on Kizana? Will you actually delay working on Kizana if you can’t find voice actors for Amai’s week? Like couldn’t you still work on Kizana if everything else besides the voice acting for Amai is done. It feels like progress would be halted for something that could take a long time. I understand wanting voice actors for Amai’s and then Kizana’s week.

Benjamin

It's an interesting thought, but it's not something I can guarantee that I will include in the game in the future.

YandereDev

Hey dev!I thinkIf the journalist had witnessed sonoko being killed by If the reporter had witnessed sonoko being killed by a mind-broken slave, he might have reacted with anger or made a special gesture.Happy Halloween!

Ayun

Thanks for your kind words! I'm very happy that you enjoyed the update! Amai's week was released with numerous problems, and I've decided to postpone Kizana until after all of the problems with Amai's week have been solved. One of the biggest problems with Amai's week is that it feels "cheap" because of a lack of voice acting. I won't be done fixing Amai's week until it is fully voiced. Unfortunately, I don't know how long it will take me to find voice actors for all of the characters who have speaking lines during Amai's week. If I find them soon, I'll be able to finish Amai and begin working on Kizana within the next month or two. In this case, Kizana will be released in the first half of 2025. However, if it takes me ages to find appropriate voice actors, then perhaps Kizana won't be released until the second half of 2025.

YandereDev

Hey dev! Today's update was truly beyond all expectations, I had guessed that it was something related to the use of the cave, but I was thinking of an elimination method/method for disposing of the bodies, congratulations! But now I feel like asking you what your future plans are regarding Amai/Kizana etc..! Happy Halloween!

only_nicooo

Tysm! Now i have an ideaa..

only_nicooo

Hm...okay, but only a tiny one. https://i.imgur.com/AlSqaqC.png

YandereDev

Devv, a little little little spoiler of tomorrow update?? Plsss

only_nicooo

Yeah. That's a fair point.

YandereDev

In my opinion, it doesn't depend much on the fact that the names of 202X are more ironic than those of 1980s mode, it mainly depends on the fact that the characters of 202X were added progressively, so players remember characters like Midori, Kokona, Saki, because They have been in the game for 10+ years, the relatively more recent characters like all those of the clubs introduced in 2018 because they have been added progressively, even if to tell the truth the names of these are already less known to me

only_nicooo

Yeah I understand that could be confusing for a lot of ppl. Maybe a poll could be made about it in the future to see what people think. Tho right now adjusting to Study Kun A and B new name after switching to the Art Club is a little strange as the few names I did remember from this mode.

Benjamin

1. The plan is to change the texture on the computer screens to show the rivals on webcam during class. 2. Nobody else has ever complained about it. If I get confirmation that other players care, I'll make an adjustment. 3. I'm sorry, I can't answer. 4. Uncompleted items are black-and-white. Completed items are in color. 5. Right now, the project only has one animator. 6. Family members probably won't be added to Ryoba's home until after I have character models for all of them. 7. She doesn't? I'll investigate.

YandereDev

Oh...you're correct about that. I think that another reason that the 202X students are more appealing than the 1989 students is that the 202X students have very memorable names. Midori Gurin - "Haha, that's funny! 'Midori' means 'green' and 'Gurin' is another way to pronounce 'green'! Her name is Green Green! Haha!" Akifumi Anno - "...yep. That's...that's a name, alright. It's definitely a...name. That's a name that a person might have. That's a name for a person. ...yep." Names like "Oka Ruto" are kinda ridiculous since nobody is named like that in real life, but those names are still more memorable and recognizable and charming than...Daichi Suzuki. So, I do sometimes think about going through all of the 1980s Mode characters and re-naming them all...but it feels like renaming 80+ characters after 3 years would be a really weird choice. It might just confuse a lot of people. I don't know if I should do that...

YandereDev

Hey Yandere Dev, I’ve wanted to say great job on completing the revamp for the 1980s character, they def stand out more and it really helps with telling who’s in what club. But there’s was always something I wondered about this cast in general for a long time. Besides like the rainbow students, rivals, delinquents, and the student council that the cast names go down an alphabetical order with a few exceptions (Ui, Himeko, and Shinako). Was that like a temporary solution just to have names for the new 90+ characters you added when the 80s update first came out. Are you like open to renaming them in the future? I only ask cause of two reasons one I personally feel it can be kinda distracting after noticing it and I feel it’s harder to remember this casts names compared to the 202X cast. I understand this wouldn’t be a high priority at all but I am curious about your opinion and your process for naming this cast.

Benjamin

Hey YandereDev a few questions! Will the rivals always be on the computers before lessons begin and after it ends? I mean will the texture change to the rivals being seen when lesson starts and then when it's over the computer will shut off or something. (That's when you have all the rivals textures of course) Shouldn't the teachers or students find it suspicious that Ayano places bugs that's if they catch her doing it? Will there be a fun girl ending in Ayano's timeline like the one in 1980's mode? When we go onto the content checklist is there a way you could add a symbol by each checklist to show that we have completed that content? Are you still on the lookout for some animators or do you have one already? Where is Dozuki Aishi in 202X Mode? Also Osana doesn't wear her stockings during the cutscene between her and Ayano B/B after getting her cat back.

V

Kenko's task is - likely - the only thing that will mention the animal shelter. Yes, he just wants to have the exact amount that he promised.

YandereDev

Thats so cool! Can't wait for Osoro's week, the Kenko answer makes me wonder.. will there be anything related to the animal shelter Kenko is serving in the game? or just his task? also why doesn't he need anymore? does he just feel the need to have the exact amount they asked for? sad about the bully lore, lol! But thats okay! And my apologies for my misunderstanding of the purpose of the bake sale.

swirled__

The purpose of the bake sale is to raise money for her family's failing bakery. The "rival delinquent gang" will become relevant during Osoro's week. Kenko made a deal with a local animal shelter; they pay him money, and he supplies them with food for their animals. He grows a LOT of vegetables, so he usually has plenty of veggies to spare. But, some kind of catastrophe wiped out his carrots, and now he urgently needs carrots in order to meet his contractual obligations to this animal shelter. (Or something along those lines.) It's kinda unlikely that the bullies will get deeper lore than what is already written on the Characters page of the official website.

YandereDev

Hiya!! So, I've been wondering... why does Amai continue the bake sale even if [Well, I only killed 4 last time] her club members are gone? Also, I shut down her club. Wasn't the funds to support the baking club? Along with the gym teacher lore between the Basu sisters on Tuesday(?), second week, will the "rival delinquent gang" be involved in the game at any point? I want more lore about the Delinquent's too :3. They are a intresting bunch! Also, carrots? why does Kenko need so much? And why exactly? like huh? Is it just a random task for the social media thing that ya didn't put much thought into? xd Speaking of Deliquents, what about some Bullies lore? will there be some there too in the final game or onward updates? If there are any spoilers in my questions, don't say it, not like ya would XD!

1. I receive a lot of messages every day from users who have bug reports/feedback/requests/suggestions for the game, and also 2D/3D artists/animators who want to volunteer to contribute to the game. This is great; it means that a lot of people are playing the game and interested in supporting the game! The only downside is that reading through all these messages (and responding when appropriate) eats up a lot of time in the day. Sometimes, at the end of a day, I've fixed so many bugs and reviewed so many new assets that there is zero time left to actually make progress on the game's next big feature (like the 80s Revamp). It's a double-edged sword; a huge number of messages every day is a sign that the game is super healthy and has a very active fanbase, but it also means that I often end a day with no progress made towards my next goal. Under these circumstances, I'm sorry, I really don't know when the Revamp will be finished. 2. I think that one of the things making Amai's week feel "cheap" is the lack of interactions with other students. I definitely plan to make her interact with other students a bit more. Uekiya is one strong candidate for interactions with Amai. I have some other interactions in mind, too, but I wouldn't like to officially confirm/deny which students will get interactions with Amai and which won't. 3. It's something that a lot of players have requested / suggested would be an improvement, so I'll definitely consider it. 4. Compared to other characters, Saki is not very plot-relevant. But, if I had artwork for her, then sure, I'd add her to the website. 5. If a lot of players want this, I'll make that addition.

YandereDev

Hey Yandere Dev, I've got a few questions I hope you don't mind answering. 1. Do you have any progress or possibly a release date with the 1980's Mode Revamp? I am really looking forward to seeing what all the characters look like. 2. I know you want to add future events/interactions for Amai's week such as between Amai and Uekiya. I was wondering if you have considered Saki for one of these types of events/interactions? It would be cool to see her interact with Amai as she is one of the first students to ever appear in the game besides Ayano, Taro, and the other rainbow girls. 3. Do you believe in future weeks we can possibly see some students interact with each other? I do kind of miss previously in Osana's week before the Amai release when students such as Kokona and Saki (it would be a shame if we don't ever get to see those two together in the game talking or doing something else together), and Ajia and Shozo talking with each other. It made the school feel more alive and realistic that students from different clubs can be friends with each other. 4. Is it possible that Saki could get official artwork like Midori and Kokona has in the future? 5. Assuming this isn't such a big ask can you add the Short Cyan socks and Short Purple socks to Pose Mode?

Benjamin

The side-story involving Kokona and her dad's debt will be an aspect of the final game.

YandereDev

Hey YandereDev! Will Musume's kidnapping be involved in the final piece of the game and Kokana's father issues?

V

1. Sorry, there is nothing I can do about this. It can only be fixed by clearing your cache/cookies. 2. I guess that's a fair suggestion. 3. New character models have been created for Yandere Simulator, but require a few remaining tweaks before they can be used in-game. The only type of person who could make those tweaks would be a "technical artist" with a high degree of knowledge in the very specific field of optimizing anime-style character models for game projects. I have not been able to find someone who has the exact skills necessary to make the final remaining changes to the models. I cannot guarantee when the models will be added to the game, because it doesn't depend on my own ability; it depends on whether or not I can ever find a person who has the skills necessary to make the last tweaks that the model requires.

YandereDev

Hey YandereDev. When you go onto the Yandere Sim website on mobile the updated Raibaru will show up but on the desktop version the old one is still up. Also I feel like after completing the tutorial Ayano should receive some reputation points for assisting with the whole play. Are you still planning/deciding on changing the body types of the female and male characters and giving new uniform?

V

I have sent an email for you. There is a detailed explanation.

Ayun

I need more info. What do you mean by "shocked"? At what point of the "changing clothes" process? When they're standing in front of their locker? I need way, way more info. Most people report bugs by e-mailing me.

YandereDev

Hey,dev.I recently discovered a bug. When a student is shocked while changing clothes, they enter a state of "living dead". They will still follow the preset route, but they are actually dead

Ayun

Sorry,I just think that it should have a weather feature

Ayun

For example, when a student is asked by ayano to leave the room.Whereafter,a murder occurs in the room, the student should report ayano's suspected crime to the police,etc

Ayun

Hello, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "nature environment." Do you mean the environment that exists outside of the school, where the player can walk on grass, see trees, etc? I'm sorry that you feel it's boring. I would be happy to review some concept art for a new and improved school exterior environment. I'm sorry, but there won't be a "weather" feature. It would affect too many of the game's systems. I'm sorry, but "stupid" is vague, so it's not useful feedback. If you think that student/police logic should be different, you'll have to type out an explanation of how you want it to change. Students don't leave bloody footprints because I never programmed them to do so. In 10 years, not a single person has complained about it.

YandereDev

Hello, yanderedev,I would like to raise three questions and suggestions for you.Firstly ,the nature environment in the yandere simulator is too boring and monotonous,l think you can add more weather.Secondly , The logic of students' behavior when interacting with the police is too stupid, and it needs to be improved.Thirdly, why do students walk over blood without leaving bloody footprints.Finally, I hope you can take my advice.(Please ignore my grammatical mistakes)

Ayun

Okay!

YandereDev

Just so you know, I'm opalander and operate under a different name (keebs) on discord now.

Stoney Garza

Sorry for the delay; it's finally been posted.

YandereDev

Hi dev, can we have a little spoiler of what the surprise will be??

only_nicooo

To be honest, Tokuko's hair color doesn't hold any special significant or carry any symbolism. Every member of the Drama Club has slightly different-colored hair because it would be weird if everyone's hair was 100% identical. But, no, there's no hidden meaning behind it. I do want all rivals to have animations that are distinct from any other student animations, so Kizana and Tokuko will definitely not share animations.

YandereDev

Hey YandereDev! I've got a question. One of the drama club members (forgot her name) has a different hair shade of purple than the rest of the club members. Is this to clarify how she doesn't follow the rules of Kizana and the club's rules? Will her animation change after Kizana arrives to dignify how more important Kizana is than her.

V

Hopefully before full release the journals can be a collage of magazine cut outs feels like the necessary polish for the matchmaking elimination. But understandable if that never happens. The main things i hope get in the game is: 1. Voice acting 2. Improved character models. 3. Improving the socializing dialogue about interests.

Kiyoshi Nakamura

Originally, I had only planned to implement one rival-specific elimination for Osana. The reason why I implemented two was because came up with an idea for a second elimination and provided me with all of the animations necessary for it. I'd be willing to implement two rival-specific eliminations for Amai, but only if someone else designs it and creates all of the necessary animations for it.

YandereDev

Hey dev do you plan to add another specific elimination method for Amai’s week?

only_nicooo

That's a fair and valid suggestion, though I'd need an artist's help to accomplish that, and currently, if I had access to artist assistance, there are other things I'd want to prioritize instead.

YandereDev

It should look like a scrap book really feel like their pictures were ripped out and stuck on the pages. Handwritten notes under them. Feel like a book you can totally imagine a teenage girls carrying on her

Kiyoshi Nakamura

No, sorry...Amai's sister won't appear at school. Also, I don't think that every rival should have a "bodyguard" like Osana. Like I said above, I don't want all the rivals to feel like clones of Osana. I have other plans for Amai's week.

YandereDev

Thank you so much for answering me, another and final idea, which I really liked, but which I understand very well, might not respect what you are looking for, would be to introduce Amai's sister to the school for the 5 days of the cake sale (not the mother because unless the dialogues of the phone call were changed it would result in a contradiction). I believe that this would really mark the small but still existing difference in difficulty between Amai and Osana, since, if Raibaru is Osana's only "security camera", but follows her everywhere, instead Amai would have her sister who follows her not everywhere but for many events (preparing sweets, selling them, sewing an apron) but she wouldn't accompany her to events with Senpai, to put down her bag, to the bathroom in case she changed, in this way Amai in my opinion would really be more difficult than Osana, because although she doesn't have a bodyguard as powerful as Raibaru (so that it doesn't seem like all her rivals have a bodyguard) she still has someone who follows her at least in half of the events and then all the students. Ayano won't be able to interact much with this hypothetical sister, she can kill her, she obviously won't give a task and she can be distracted by offering drinks, or she can be sent home through info-chan, or by spraying her with something, since she's not a student of that school would have to go and change at home, and consequently would never return. Wow, what I wrote, I know that this idea would really waste too much of your time, and at the moment it's what you're really trying to avoid, but let's say that in my opinion it would mark the end of the "feeling of cheapness" of Amai's week, and with some dubbing and maybe with some more animation it would really reach an excellent level!

only_nicooo

1. Yes, I plan for it to apply to all rivals. I don't think that all rivals should have a scripted event where they verbally describe their ideal boyfriend. I think that if all rivals shared this type of event, they would all feel identical, and I would be accused of being lazy and just copy-pasting each rival. 2. That's a cute idea, but I have other plans for a "living security camera" during Amai's week. 3. I'm sorry, but I guess I have to admit that I just don't like this idea as much as what I've already implemented into the game.

YandereDev

Hi dev! I have some ideas for you here about Amai week. 1. It would be nice (although it would perhaps take a little more time) if the last function you added, i.e. obtaining the URLs and analyzing the rival's social media, was applied to all the rival (except the teachers obviously), but each rival should have a scripted event where she describes her ideal boyfriend, for example amai, she could cook a dessert on Monday afternoon during cleaning time together with Saki, who in the meantime would tell her how shoku feels something for her; and in the meantime she might reply "Shoku is cute but he should show me more courage... he should change this, this and that" 2. It would be nice if Amai also offered her sweets to the teachers in the morning, as a gesture of gratitude since she was allowed to sell her sweets at school, and the teachers impressed by the goodness of the sweets could start visiting the sale of sweets, so that there are "living security cameras" that Ayano cannot get rid of, except by poisoning the sweets making sure that no teacher will want to taste them again. 3. To learn her tastes without using social media, Ayano could buy her recipe book in the city, in which personal considerations regarding family, violence, etc. are added.

only_nicooo

looks nice!

Lappen XD

Yeah. I considered that. Two things make me hesitate: 1. The school environment is large, and loading into it takes a while. Do you really want your "designing my students' routines" Custom Mode experience interrupted by long loading times? 2. I think it would be better if a simple, bare-bones version of the school (white cubes) was available in the Custom Mode menu, and the player could navigate through it and manually place students. However. someone would need to make it for me.

YandereDev

yandev, since it’s hard to place a student because the map is so simplistic and the placer is so sensitive to movement do you think it would be possible to make it that when you try to place a student you’ll spawn into the school so you can put a student exactly where you want? and for the other characters you’ve placed they’ll also be there doing the animation you set for them

willtaylxrr

is no one going to comment that one of them is literally todoroki shouto lmaoo. they really are gorgeous works though

EnbyBro Gamer

Hmm. A valid suggestion, I suppose, but I'm not ready to definitively say "yes" or "no" to it...

YandereDev

Hey YanDev, i got a idea with the Question Mark in the 1980s mode pause screen. What if when we go into a rival’s bag and we have a option to take there Magazine, and if we do then that unlocks the Magazine section in the pause screen. And with that we can look threw our rivals guy interested at anytime if we ever forget what they like.

WWE Jay Gaming

they are cute
