Happy Halloween!

Hello, and Happy Halloween!

Most of you are probably aware that I have a few annual traditions: a silly video on April 1st, a music video on Christmas, etc. One of those traditions takes place on October 31st. I call it a…

 Yandere Sim Spooktacular!

In short, a “Spooktacular” is when I spend a couple of days producing a horror-themed minigame such as Yanvania, Yandertale, or Midori Forest. However, things were a bit different this year.

I won’t bore you with the details, but the past two weeks were pretty rough for me. In short, a lot of very unfortunate things happened in a very short span of time. I simply couldn’t muster up any enthusiasm for working on something fun/creative for Halloween. So, instead of making content for a “Spooktacular”, I chose to focus my attention exclusively on Osana/Raibaru and make as much progress as possible.

As a result, I simply don’t have a horror minigame for you this year. I always feel very sad whenever I fail to uphold one of my yearly traditions (like Kuudere Simulator, for example). But, if I try to look at things from the most optimistic perspective possible, I’m sure that there are people who will be happy that I spent my time working on Osana instead of producing a minigame.

…however…

Last year, when I updated the Gaming Club, a certain Dude explored the club and expressed his disappointment that a particular prop in the club was not interactive. I thought it would be really fun to add the functionality he wanted…but it was a low priority, so I didn’t take action on it.

Earlier this year, a programmer reached out to me and offered to help me with anything I needed. To test his ability, I asked him to fulfill That Dude‘s request. The programmer completed the task, and now the game has a cool new feature, without any of my time being taken away from Osana!

Even though it’s not horror-themed, Yandere Simulator has a new minigame today. I’ve uploaded a new build of the game containing this new feature, along with a bunch of bug fixes. Overall, there isn’t much new content in this build, but that’s because I was spending all of my time on Osana/Raibaru.

October 24th Bug-Fixing Build

As long as I’m racking up bug-fixes while working towards my next goal, I may as well release nightly new builds, right? Can’t hurt!

October 23rd Bug-Fixing Build

It keeps happening! I keep incidentally fixing bugs while getting work done, so I figure I may as well keep uploading new builds. There’s no reason not to, right?

October 20th Bug-Fixing Build

Some bugs were reported while I was working on the street and creating the latest video. I finally got an opportunity to investigate and fix those bugs, so here’s a new build with some issues fixed!

I’ll provide you with a list of everything that is new or different in the latest build, but first, I’d like to share some amazing cosplay with oextremelunatics dressed as Shiromi and snarkymcsnarkpants dressed as Aoi!

Got a new build to fix some issues that people were reporting with the street scene, as well as some issues completely unrelated to the street.

A Tour of Yandere Simulator’s New Street

I’m sorry it took so long! The new video and build are finally ready. Please enjoy!

In addition to the street, this build also contains a new Headmaster Tape – the first one to be added to the game since 4/26/2018! I hope you’re going to enjoy it!

Video? New build?

EDIT: I’m sorry! It’s been over 48 hours, and the video still isn’t ready yet. Please forgive me! At this point in the video’s production, I can estimate how long it’s going to be: about 12 minutes and 35 seconds. I’ve currently completed 8 minutes and 27 seconds of the video, so it’s about 2/3rds done right now. It’ll definitely be released sometime on October 17th. I hope to have it out as soon as possible! I’m sorry it’s taking so long, and once again, thank you for your patience!

I’ve finished preparing a new build – and it contains something I’ve been discussing for a very long time! I’m currently making a video about it, and I hope to be able to post that video soon – within 48 hours, if possible.

I’d like to keep the details a surprise until the video is released…but, as is tradition, I’ll share some filtered screenshots with you! Here’s the first one:

Yep, I’m keeping it pretty vague. What could this be about? Click “Continue reading” for 6 more screenshots!

October 4th Bug-Fixing Build

Whoops! There was one especially bad bug in the previous build, so I’ve prepared a new update where that bug is gone – and to justify the release of a new build, there are several other bug fixes and improvements, as well.
