A Build, a Video, and a Poll

Last Updated July 1st 2:35 AM with bug fixes

If you’re looking for the most recent build, click here.

I’ve been trying to add a new elimination method to the game once every two weeks. May 15th was rooftop-pushing, June 1st was poisoning, June 16th was drowning…I really wanted to include another elimination method in the game for July 1st, but I wasn’t able to pull it off with the amount of time I had available. I could have implemented a bare-bones version, but it wouldn’t have been very exciting or interesting. So, I’m postponing the next elimination method until July 15th.

So, what do I have for you today, on July 1st? I have a new build and a new video. The latest build doesn’t have a new elimination method, but it does have lots of bug fixes, as well as several additions / improvements that you can read about below.

Today’s video is a bit different; instead of making a video about the latest new additions to the game, I made a video where I examine a game that is similar to Yandere Simulator, and discuss which features might be beneficial for Yandere Sim. At the end of the video, I pose a question that I’d love to hear your answer to.

Now that you’ve seen the video, how about answering a poll for me?

If you’re interested in seeing a list of all of the changes in the latest build, have a look:

Bug Fixes

• Fixed bug that would allow Yandere-chan to apologize for interrupting a conversation (there is no reputation loss for doing so, so there is no need to apologize).
• Fixed bug that would result in the “Drown” prompt not disappearing if the purple-haired NPC witnessed a murder during her “Stand Near Fountain” event.
• Fixed bug that would allow the player to speak to an NPC when that NPC was supposed to be heading to a meeting place.
• Fixed bug that would cause an NPC to slide across the ground if they witnessed a corpse while following Yandere-chan.
• Fixed bug that would cause a poisoned girl to stop choking to death if she noticed Yandere-chan taking a panty shot.
• Fixed bug that would cause Yandere-chan to be unable to pick up an item if she was standing directly on top of it.
• Fixed bug that would prevent events from being interrupted even when Yandere-chan was bloody / armed / insane.
• Fixed bug that would cause some students to continue walking around when Yandere-chan was spotted by Senpai.
• Fixed bug that would cause girls’ hair to show up incorrectly when viewing their Info-chan profile.
• Fixed bug that would make the “Pippi” character stand in front of her locker instead of playing video games.
• Fixed bug that would cause students to sprout ponytails when Yandere-chan was spotted by Senpai.
• Fixed bug that would make an NPC immune to weapons if she was in the middle of an event.
• Fixed bug that would cause events to trigger when Yandere-chan was spotted by Senpai.
• Fixed bug that would cause NPCs to ignore corpses lying in doorways.
• Attempted to fix a bug that would cause an Event to occur even if one of the NPCs involved in that event was dead.

Buckets

• All buckets are now empty until Yandere-chan fills them up at a water source.
• Buckets of water now get bloody when Yandere-chan dips a bloody mop inside.
• It is now possible to dump a bucket of bloody water into a large sink.

Incinerator

• Changed the appearance of the timer that appears when the incinerator is activated.
• Changed the appearance of the incinerator model.
• Added flames when activating the incinerator.
• Added sound effects to the incinerator.

Miscellaneous

• Added new accessories. One of the new accessories has a bonus feature attached to it! Can you find it?
• Updated the teacher’s voiced lines.
• Reverted title screen music.

2:35 AM Update

• Fixed bug that would cause the game to freeze after getting caught by a teacher.
• Fixed bug that would prevent the player from drowning the purple-haired girl.
• Fixed bug that would prevent the gym doors from opening.
• Removed the “blast off” feature, because I never programmed in a method for returning to Earth after leaving the planet.

This is still a huge problem for me, and I encourage you to read it if you are considering contacting me about anything at all.
