Last year, I had three April Fools’ pranks – a Hatred trailer parody, Kuudere Simulator, and Super Yandere 64. This year, I planned to release another set of three pranks…but I felt guilty spending my time doing anything other than working on Yandere Simulator, so I only produced one prank: Kuudere Simulator 2. One of the other two planned pranks was a mini dating sim that would allow the player to romance a certain character from Yandere Simulator. I even asked an artist to draw character portraits for the dating sim!
April Fools’ came and went, so I planned to release the artwork that had been created for the dating sim and let the community piece it together if they were interested. That’s when a certain talented lady who has developed numerous visual novels offered to build the dating sim for me! (By the way, this particular lady has been the voice actress for Yandere-chan for the past 15 months!)
The result of her hard work is: Burning Love!
You can download it here: https://vamichaelalaws.itch.io/burning-love
Because this was originally intended to be an April Fools’ prank, it’s going to be short and sweet. Still, I hope that you enjoy it!
Okay, yeah, that’s cute, but when’s the next serious update?
I’m planning to release a new video very soon. Hopefully, I can produce it within 24 hours. If I can’t pull it off within 24 hours, it might have to wait until the 12th, because I’m going to be busy on the 11th.

Take your time, bro! We sincerely appreciate all your hard work and effort put into the game. (:
By the way, Burning Love is awesome!
Aw, that’s so nice of you to say! Thanks for your kind words!
Hey, Yandere Dev! Remember ME? (Look at the profile picture)
Im now homo for Flame Demon-Kun
Um……that very very cool!!
I like it.
What do I need to play the game? It says Could not open BurningLove PY when I clicked on Burning love app.
Hey, Devpai! I just found out who you date! lmao. Also, you’re the best ever! I’m waiting for other developers to update their games, too!
OOPS, I mean the character in the visual novel~~ I’m a baka. I don’t actually know who you date! XD XD
We do actually know who he dates for sure, though: Nobody. Not that he doesn’t have it in him, but that he’s just WAAAAY too busy with this game to have time for dating… This game is practically his full-time girlfriend.
The game is cool but please cna I help you make the other new video you are gonna make?
Can rather, sorry about that.
No.
THIS GAME IS HARDER THAN YAN SIM I CAN’T DO IT
THIS GAME IS HARDER THAN YAN SIM
Did this profile picture even work?
No, It didn’t
Yes it did
Yay! It loaded this time!
ive replayed this 4 times this is the best day of my whole life
yandere dev i love your work keep going 🙂
Is this canon for the demons in yandere sim? ;o
It actually explains quite a lot, even if it’ll be irrelevant to Yandere Sim’s story.
Can someone help me? I cant play the game. When I try to open the application it says “Could not open NAMEFILE.py”.
Try re-downloading it, looks like you might have a corrupted download.
Flame Demons is really hooot!!!!
It’s downloading now! I’m so excited *w* You always work hard and of course you are just human like everyone here. We appreciate your work and know that it’s hard to keep all in mind for every project. So don’t make yourself too high standards because of the dates you “should” release a new built. Thanks soo much for all of your work! Yandere Sim is my favorite game and it’s just fun and awesome to play! One man and a few volunteers can really create a fantastic work! I’m glad I found it on youtube and downloaded it the very first time on the same day 🙂
This game is so “heartwarming” and addicting! Played it 2 times trough now and I just love how the joices some into the game x3 Fantastic work also on this one!
I loved how we got to know about Flame Demons backstory and personality a little more and how flustered he got. Burning Love is defiantly my favorite visual novel! Great Work!!
I just finished playing and I must say, that was a very nice experience. It doesn’t feel like an April Fools prank at all. It’s a very nice twist to the YanSim universe. I wonder if this is canon though…
Also, are there multiple major endings?
I’m not sure if it’s canon or not but there are two endings. One is where you manage to woo him and get the choice between doing a few different things and another where you fail and he steals your soul.
:’v i’m don’t page the suport but i am poor :’v and don’t have of unite stated
*and don’t from of unite stated*
You could just go straight to downloads without paying.
Yeso o saw that XD ANd played the game and like
I’m gonna download it now ♡ thanks yanderedev we love you keep up the good work! C:
I like the game :v it’s amazing
you]
So, is this cannon? Did Ayano indirectly set up one of her fellow classmates with the Flame Demon?
I’m curious myself. I know we shouldn’t read too much into an April Fool’s joke, but I wonder if this is the real backstory for the flame demon.
Reblogged this on catshby.
Tsundere Demon ON FLEEK x’D
I love it!!!! Flame Demon is my favorite demon since now on °///° you take your time, I’ll be… mmmm… wooing some demons meanwhile I wait.
Now I have feelings for a demon fuck. THE DATING SIM IS AWESOME.
we like anything that comes out of your had work! thanks for working on the game and for you patient
Somebody help me please! I can’t download because my Opera and Chrome says to me some SSL Error when I try to download from itch_io! I can’t solve this problem now(
Nevermind I downloaded it with Firefox…
hey yandere dev!
I love your game!
(Because I do not speak English every day I do not know the language , so I write you this Google translation)
Currently this is not another complaint about the game or something , I catch something to add to the game ! Security Cameras! Well … school level seems very high , so why should not she have cameras ? And Yandere chan will have to enter into a certain room in the game , to erase the portion of the tapes , but it can be done only at a certain stage of the game , all the rest of the time , the only places where it could be murder , are :
Services
Locker rooms
Ground
All rooms at the Club
Classes
Roof
All rooms are meaningless
Please think about it !
It’s my favorite game
I always want to help you with the game
If you want more information :

My name is bar
Ammmm… Do you realice that information in volunteer
This will be in if the final game is too easy.
The dating sim is so much fun ! Great work from everyone, really !
I hope that you’ll be able to make it grow for the next April’s Fool x)
Anyway it’s a great idea, thanks for that and all the work you’ve done on Yandere Sim \o/
Ganbatte Yanderedev-san !
(PS : I love the demon’s voice *-*)
God, it was sooooo cool. I think I’m in love with Demon-kun, but I’ve got a question is that burning to kiss a fire head man??
#Iwanttomarryflamedemon
its telling me i need to pay
You dont have to, its just nice to do so and support the creator.
Burning love is amazing! Too bad the pain demon isn’t an option, he’s probably pretty damn good with those hands ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Whoa.
Yo working hard dude :3
Also… I wanted to say.. uh..
Your voice is perfect xD when you said in previous video “Would you take… A look” I uh.. blushed xD’
Good Job, Devpai. Good Job.
im creepy.
Anyways. Have a good day. And stuff.
how do you open the game pls… i’m sorry i am terrible with computers
like, which folder? the game one?
and which app do i use to run it?
thanks~
(please don’t yell at me… i’m sorry i offended you with my computer skills)
I don’t exactly see your problem. You download the game, You unpack it, You click the pink hearted icon. End of story. I guess.
A Love the effort you put into all your games Dev! keep up the amazing work ❤
He reminds me of Byakuya Togami from Dangannronpa
I don’t know why
I’ll just shut up
Wow I just finished playing it and the game is really good !
What if this is how to get the flame demon’s power in the game. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
YES PLEASE
this must be canon o~o
The game could’ve been better, but I liked it anyways. Good job!
Why is this a thing? ….. And why am I enjoying it so much LOVE ME FLAME DEMON!
thank you for the game! It’s super fun! I finished it in my first try! The story is kinda awkward though. I mean, how he just loved her in the end… totally weirded me out.
I have a lot of fun playing the game. Best dating simulator game ever! 😀
I just played this little game and it was soo cute!! I practically laughed at the sarcastic lines in the game but I also loved the little love story it was very nice love the dialog!!
Guess who woode the hot guy?! I did!
Oh man, I played through this little game and I gotta say….. it’s hilarious and strangely endearing. Really glad it ended up being made
Would object to YandereDev getting paid to play Dark Souls 3 instead of working on the game, but when was the last time he gave a shit what his supporters wanted?
Oh my gosh I’m so glad I get to date the flame demon. I thought I was the only one who liked him! 😀
this was so perfect
THIS WAS SO PERFECT
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAh
See this is why I believe yanderedev can do amazing things and why i think hes going to do great with yandere simulator
For an April Fool’s prank, it felt less like a prank, and more like something genuine. I liked it a lot.
And we can all wait patiently for Yandere Sim. The game is impressive, and I’m certain it will only get better.
