May Preview #4

Progress is being made! But the build’s not ready yet…so here’s another preview! And it moves!

This is another “cheat preview”, because this animation won’t appear in the next build; it’ll be the focus of a future build.

Click here to check it out!

Oh my, what could be happening to this poor schoolgirl? I’m not going to tell you! Go ahead and speculate about it!

It takes longer to die from this sort of thing in real life, but in a video game, you gotta speed things up. Gotta keep it movin’.

    • Could be acid, like something you could possibly make in the chemistry lab (maybe a future idea YandereDev’s got planned?). Maybe some kind of other chemical that seeps into skin and kills from the inside? I don’t think she’d just be looking at her arms and wiping at her clothes if it was fire as opposed to some kind of liquid substance or other kind of substance. I mean, it’s possible, but I’m not sure fire is the answer.

    • oh my god ur dumb as shit burning is one of the elimination methods,and acid really,acid? first where will yan chan get acid and if bugs yan chan would be dead before even getting to the girl,yandev said that it takes longer to die from this sort of thing if acid the girl will not react like that,if bugs there is no chance of her living but when burning u
      just get burned u dont die it will TAKE LONG FOR YOU TO DIE IF U GET BURNED burning is one of the FREAKING ELIMINATIONS METHODS!!

      • Yeesh, is it really necessary to go all “omg ur dumb” like that? If you don’t agree with the person, then fine. But learn some manners. AND HOW TO USE PUNCTUATION PROPERLY.

        Where would she get acid? Easy, from Info-chan. Or the science lab (Believe it or not some countries have pretty corrosive substances in schools. One of the public schools I was in even had hydrochloric acid and phosphorus stored in the science lab). YandereDev also mentioned that Yan-chan might be able to bring in things she might need from home.

        The way the girl’s wiping and swatting really does look like bugs. It’s actually possible to sick bugs on people. Some bugs become extremely violent if they detect certain scents and would attack without mercy. In a swarm, it wouldn’t take too long to knock out or kill someone. So for example, if Yan-chan had put something to trigger an attack into a girls uniform or perfume, she could very well pull it off.

        Her actions don’t really imply fire, unless she was being doused in gasoline.

      • Gian Carlo, there might be a chance you can make acid in the chemistry lab if your skill level for that kind of thing is high enough, eventually. That being said, there are types of acid that would eat through steel so human flesh would be nothing to burn through, it is a possible killing tool. It also takes minutes to die from acid in real life, not seconds, so the animation would still be much faster than real life, and plus no one who knows what fire is would ever try to cluelessly wipe it from her clothing after discovering on their person. They would freak out and run hysterically, screaming and possibly beating the area of themselves on fire in an effort to put it out. Not go ,”Ugh, what IS this? *wipe* *wipe* and then die two seconds after realizing it’s hurting them. So yeah. REALLY. ACID. REALLY. The “ur dumb as shit” comment was completely unfounded and inappropriate and I don’t know where you got off. Just because you think someone might be incorrect about something that doesn’t mean you have to go and act like a total asshole about it. Calm the hell down. A simple, “Hm, I don’t think that’s it.” would have sufficed to tell Seanna you thought her guess was wrong.

    • dont feel bad seanna… i thought bugs too. and sorry gian, but were not the volunteers or yan dev himself. we dont know. and he wants to see if we can try to figure it out. no need to be so rude

  1. It might be fire, but it seems weird that she would be wiping off her arms, and not her sleeves, since skin isn’t flammable. The rival would have to be doused in gasoline then. Where would you find gasoline in a school? Aside from that, we already burn the bodies, so the fire aspect again seems kind of odd. It might be sickness, but that is highly unlikely as well. Bees would be hard to add into the game, because it would involve the rival having to do something to threaten them.

    • We know that fire will be an elimination method, but I doubt its this one. This does look a lot like getting stinged by bees or bugs or something, especially when she wipes her arms and skirt… but who knows!! It’s wait to see 😀

  2. We have to remember that Info-chan is also an element in this game, and she can get things for you that usually wouldn’t be available at a school.
    So, both gasoline (for fire) and acid are possible options.
    I mean hey, it could even be flesh eating bacteria, but that one is highly unlikely LOL.

  3. Also, here in the UK we DO have acid at schools, in the science labs!
    Though I’m not entirely sure how corrosive these acids are or if Japanese schools operate similarly.

  4. Maybe it’s psychological. Trying to wipe away the blood. Can’t wipe away the blood. I have sinned too much! Die from mental breakdown.
    Or some flammable substance. Pour it on, try to wipe it off, light it.

    Betting on mental breakdown. Imagine getting another student to do your dirty work only for them to die from a mental breakdown because they killed too many of their fellow students. A few pretty words and they killed half the students, the person you had do it is dead so they can’t tell anyone it was you, and no one can trace it back to you. Perfect elimination method.

    • You’re getting it all for free for the time being, I think that’s reason enough for you not to complain.
      Or, y’now, you could develop the game yourself.

  5. Drop a beehive on her from the tree with the girl that refuses to die. I wonder if there is archery in this. That would be such a cool weapon to use in the game and it can knock down a hive from a tree. Heh, heh,

  6. I’m going to say bees. Or some other sort of deadly bug, because she is brushing her arms. She’s not patting her arms and stuff like she is on fire (I’m thinking Sims when I say this.) Maybe you will be able to throw something that will attract the bees on someone.

  7. My first thought was bees. She wouldn’t be trying to brush off fire. Maybe acid, but I think it looks more like a bee/wasp/other insect attack. Maybe the gardening club keeps a hive? *evil grin*

  8. Everyone keeps saying bees, but don’t you think that’s a little silly?
    Yes being stung too many times by bees can perhaps cause death but it’s usually through anaphylactic shock, which this animation doesn’t match up to.
    If you watch properly you can see her slump slightly right at the beginning, which indicates something has either been thrown on her or at her.
    My best bets are either another elimination method in which you throw things on students, or it could be the fire demon/setting someone on fire like other people have said.

  9. Maybe Drop Tropical Ant. You can drop from top like on her or him like water.
    Also what i mean i think it’s too danger to let go around danger bugs how can hurt any bodie includes Senpai.
    So i think it’s too mess with danger so do not probably bugs.
    Maybe can it be some sort of chemical like combination of chloraid how start work later, so student can try to take it out before it’s got works.

    • I think it’s most likely to be chemicals or gasoline (so they can be set on fire).
      Any method involving bugs just seems too far fetched and like you said, realistically other students would be in danger also.
      He mentioned it would take a long time to die through this method irl, so again it’s most likely to be chemicals or fire because both of these methods would take a long time to kill someone.

  10. Is there going to be an update in the game that makes it lag less? Despite having low settings it’s so slow, my drivers and everything are updated, i can play high quality MMO games like Aura Kingdom on my laptop no problem, no lag, nada! But it’s so bloody laggy when im playing the May 7th build, is the next build gonna be less laggy? That’s probably an important thing for many other players, it runs decently when on the first 1080 HD setting, but it’s not smooth.

  11. I believe it is either bees or acid because of the very first few seconds of the animation she looks back and forth confused, when you catch fire that is not your initial reaction but she does look down at herself at first leading to mean that maybe something was spilled on her. Plus both bees and acid take quite a while to kill someone because with bees you have to be stung to the point of suffocation and with acid it has to eat away at your skin. But the thing that directs it away from being acid is how she tries to wipe herself off it seems more like more and more bugs are getting on her so she tries to get them off. So my final conclusion is she is doused by something that attracts bugs and they start to swarm so she tries to get them off but she eventually gets so consumed by them and just gives up and falls to the ground in a mass of swarming bugs.
