2015 is almost over! Let’s review some data about the blog!
- In 2014, this blog was viewed 184,000 times.
- In 2015, this blog was viewed 30,000,000 times!
- In 2014, the busiest day of the year was July 2nd, with 10,441 views.
- In 2015, The busiest day of the year was August 22nd with 216,504 views!
(That’s probably because of a very popular video that Markiplier uploaded on August 21st!)
My longest “posting streak” was during the first 5 days of December, when I updated the blog 5 days in a row. In fact, I’ve probably made more blog posts this month than any other month!
The most-viewed blog posts were “Please Stop Sending Me Stupid E-mails!” “E-mail Problems and Download Problems” and “Things You Should Not E-mail YandereDev About“. Wow! I really did try my hardest to push that message, didn’t I?
The next most-viewed blog post was the School Atmosphere Update post. Before that, the most-viewed blog post was the Sanity In Yandere Sim post, waaaaay back in January!
Here’s where most of the blog’s traffic comes from.
Wow! More traffic comes from YouTube than all other sources combined. Yandere Simulator’s popularity can be directly attributed to Let’s Players. I’d like to extend my thanks to everyone who plays this game on YouTube!
This blog received a lot of traffic from AlphaBetaGamer. I think that’s because, for a very long time, this post on AlphaBetaGamer was the top Google search result for “Yandere Simulator Download”.
A lot of this blog’s traffic comes from Facebook. Why are you telling your friends and family that you bully schoolgirls and take panty shots?
There’s also a lot of traffic coming from VK, which is basically the Russian equivalent of Facebook. Wow! It looks like there’s a very active Yandere Simulator community in Russia!
I wonder why there is so much traffic coming from a Brazilian site called Baixaki? Probably because someone is hosting a really old build of the game there. But that build is from June! How embarrassing!
People from 223 different countries have viewed this blog! Here are the top 10:
Mexico, Brazil, France, Argentina, Spain, Chile, Thailand…wow! There are a lot of non-English speakers that enjoy Yandere Simulator! I’m looking forward to the day when I finalize the English script so that I can begin to provide the option to change the language that the game is displayed in.
Hmm…so, what are the countries that have viewed this blog the lowest number of times? Let’s take a look.
There is ONE dude in Samoa who knows what Yandere Simulator is. Who is it? Is it this guy?
Wait a second! This blog has been viewed 25 times in North Korea. But, Internet access in North Korea is limited to government usage only. Does this mean that someone in the North Korean government is a fan of Yandere Simulator? Could it be…Glorious Leader Himself?!
In 2015, the people who made the most comments on this blog were:
- Glb Jlznv, with 462 comments.
- Irosuhana, with 359 comments.
- poofymushroom, with 312 comments.
Wow! Thank you for taking such an interest in Yandere Simulator! But…I wonder…what have they been commenting about? I hope they weren’t just spamming “YandereDev is a loser!” the whole time…
Over the course of the past year, the latest debug build of the game has been hosted on several different websites: Mediafire, Mega, yanderesimulator.com, Google Docs, and yanderegame.com. So, how many times has the game been downloaded?
- Downloads from Mediafire: 3,722,039
- Downloads from Mega: 865,744
- Downloads from YandereSimulator.com: 242,564
- Downloads from Google Docs: 97,681
- Downloads from Yanderegame.com: 63,290
If we add up all of those numbers, then we can conclude that…
WOW! I’ve created a game that has been downloaded almost 5 million times! That’s pretty awesome!
(….most game developers probably would have started charging for the game by this point…)
Just imagine: What if I had received $1 for each download? The entire game would definitely have been funded by now!
So, what did I write at the end of last year’s Annual Report?
“I’m hoping to release a playable demo by March 1st, and launch a Kickstarter by April 2nd.”
…well, that sure didn’t happen. I’d love to finish implementing all core gameplay mechanics by March 1st of this year, and launch a Kickstarter by April 2nd of this year, but I definitely don’t want to make any promises. (After all, it didn’t work the last time…)
The only thing I CAN promise is that there will be a new build of the game uploaded on January 1st!
Here is the last time you’ll hear me say this in 2015: Thank you very much for following the development of Yandere Simulator!

Baixaki is one of those scam download sites that packs malwares into the files. Anything you put on Google Search + “download” almost all the time gets a Baixaki result. PSA for Brazilian players. Download from here please.
A lot of brasilians don’t understand english so they try to find some site in portuguese for download, there’s not much that can be done about that
In that case:
Baixaki é um desses sites de download de embuste que embala malwares para os arquivos. Qualquer coisa que você colocar na Pesquisa do Google + “download” quase todo o tempo fica um resultado Baixaki. PSA para os jogadores brasileiros. Baixar aqui por favor.
I think I’m looking forward to the new build more than the new year itself loool even my 9 year old sister knows about this game now ^^;
Hello, YandereDev, I’m a 12-years-old blog viewer from Vietnam, hi!

It’s amazing how much this game has grown. I only started playing in March, and even then the game was small compared to now. I’m proud of how far it’s come, and I’m sure the people who were here longer than me are just as, if not more, proud. You’re doing great. Keep up the good work!
#NewYearsEveInYandereSim
You’ve done so well though out the year yandere dev, you can take all you time you need to make the game and don’t rush and get enough sleep, don’t overwork yourself
One last thing I’m going to say to you in 2015 is AWESOME
i am colombian D,: my country its in blank
Yandere sim is one of my favorite games at the moment! I’m really looking forward for the next update coming soon! I will be uploading videos soon on to YouTube because I enjoy the game so much! I will by the game when it’s released as a full game. But I’m pretty sure if he just reasef this version it would have lots of buyers. Keep up the great work yanderedev! Also Happy New Years!
I thought “baixaki.com.br” was lost in the internet already… This fucking site… Bad Time to be a BR.
During lunch time, Oka Ruto stalks one of her classmates (the Basu sisters). Please add “The school rooftop” as a place when you are online at night time so you could say ,”Today I saw Oka Ruto on the school rooftop. She was stalking one of her classmates.”
Let us thank our lord and savior Yandere Dev for bestowing upon us this bountiful unfinished sandbox build.
May there be more ways to kill our rivals. May there be more students to kill. May there be ways to stalk our Senpai even more creepily. May our sweet beloved Kokona-chan catch a break… break her neck that is! And may we find out, once and for all, what snap does… though I have a good idea what it will do already.
I’m in Australia, not that anyone cares. Anyway, I know you’re not likely to see this, but, thanks for working on Yandere Simulator.
I’m in Australia too 😀
Ahh I can’t wait for the next update! Good job on making Yandere Sim, It’s gone so far!
You also have me and my friends in Czech Republic here! 😀
Yandere Dev, can you send me the links for views? I wanna see where Lebanon is!!
If you think this year of Yandere Simulator was great say “I”!
I!
oh… come on!! Chinese can not access to this website xD. That is why the top visiting country does not have China.
Hello I’m replying from a part of China…
Teehee…
Not many people came from Singapore… 😔
Singapore – 1997
Studied at Chatsworth international ❤
I’m from Singapore
I found this demo/site thanks to a random “Top 10 Games” video on Youtube.
Not only have I enjoyed checking out this demo, I have also learned much from the candid posts from Yandere Dev on the facts behind freelancing and game development, to the point where I have decided to personally persue neither! Thank you, Yandere Dev!
And, before I forget; Jay from the Kubz Scouts is THAT DUDE!
#thatdude
OMG THE FANDOMMMMMM ❤
The Fandom is Heeeerrrrrreeeeeee, That Dude!
Then what about YandereMac 2nd December build? It isn’t up for a very long time….
how do you have North Korea there LOL
If yandere dev start charging the game most of brazilians will try to do a free download
Just saying a thing don’t judge me
I love the game and I hope the debug versions continues for a time 🙂
Yay! well done Yandere Dev! Happy New Years! and the game development is going so well! I always love to see what you have implemented in the new update even if its not your greatest build. Good Luck with your new year!
Oh, I’m nearly crying. My country isn’t even mentioned… Senpai, why don’t you love me?
mine isnt mentioned too 😦
South Korea has ALOT of you tubers who play yandere simulator. Wonder why it wasn’t posted here
It’s probably just cause you’re quite high, but not top ten. You could be 11th! 🙂
Mine too, My country wasn’t mentioned…
Heheh) Glb Jiznv it’s me 🙂 I used this nickname before I created an account on wordpress)
Yassss… I can enjoy the last days of school holidays playing the new update where I can chop up bitches…
Only if Devpai added a feature where you can fry body parts if you are in the Cooking Club ❤
No problem, I love following the development of Yandere Simulator. It makes my day when a new build comes out with new features!
We Italian people love your game too! When the game will be complete I’ll surely make a walkthrough on Youtube so I hope more people will know about this fantastic game! 😀
Im Portuguese and i come see this site at least 1 time a day ‘-‘
(PS): Love senpaidev! ❤
On the country list there is no Germany.. I am German, so there is at least one player there.. ;D
B-but… none from Malaysia? Really? I even get emails for this blog’s updates.. QAQ
At least that one dude from Samoa got acknowledged lol xD
And thank you for making this game, YandereDev. So kind of you for not charging for the game yet. Keep up the awesome work!
But Still not as good as GTA SA and GTA 5 and YanSIM IS LONG WAIT TO DIED…..XDXDXD
Indonesia HERE
OMG, I’m Indonesian too! Yaay, I have friends!
Well, if someone from North Korean government will be caught playing Yandere Sim, he’ll be executed the next day.
BTW, I love this game and I hope you’ll finish it. It will become not only successful, but controversial as hell! Thank you for not giving it up!
What about Russia?((
Читай внимательно 🙂
Glad to see the Pope has been following the game’s development too.
Wow! This game has gone far! Almost 2 years,and it’s not even finished yet! Even tho i looks like a game already!!! Keep up the good work dev,been following this game since you posted ”how to fake suicide” and ”how to poison a girl in yandere sim” and i’m still following! That’s amazing,i usually go onto other games by now… But yan sim is too good to give up on! And the fact it isn’t even a game or demo yet just blows my mind… I’m sure this will be the next gta when it’s finished! I love this game….
Your fan from Serbia…
mr. Dev!! please notice the fans coming from the Philippines!! D: i’ve been stalking your game ever since the August Builds~ ❤
btw i love how you asked why we tell friends and family about bullying school girls and taking panty shots XD
Hello im your korean fan.
I want to give you a advice.
1.please bring the student who intelligence is like “deathnote”s “L”. When accident has start,He will come to yandere chan’s school and questionable by Yandere chan.
2.put the another yandere. They will do like yandere chan.(becareful when they start to kill!)
3.how about put a president’s daughter?
When she became dead, all police wants to catch the murderer. It make all people in panic and it will go forever before the murderer catched.
4.make the another rumor. When 5th rival has dead, many student will think senphai has a curse. But if you success the declaration during the rumor’s spread out, they will questionable that you are a killer.
Lol am I the only Indonesian who plays Yandere Simulator, I wonder…
A fellow Indonesian here 🙂 you’re not alone~
SELOWW AKU ADA DI SINI BUAT KAMU ❤ NoBody = Senpai XD
