Yandere Simulator One-Year Anniversary

Hello, everyone! I usually only post updates on the 1st and 15th days of the month, but this is a special occasion. Today is the one-year anniversary of Yandere Simulator! As of today, the game has now been in development for one full year! Whoo hoo!

If you’re interested, you can read this thread to see how it all started: https://archive.moe/v/thread/237905321/ It’s interesting to compare and contrast the original vision of the game with how it’s currently turning out!

The game has been getting a lot of attention over the past month. This blog has gone from getting 100 views per day to getting over 73,000 views per day! The publicity is almost overwhelming, but I’m very happy that so many people like the concept of the game! I hope that I can meet everyone’s expectations!

April 1st is a day reserved for pranks and jokes, so the next serious Yandere Simulator update will be posted on April 2nd. The April 2nd blog post will have some polls that I’d like people to answer, some information for newcomers who don’t know much about the game, and advice for people who want to report bugs. Stay tuned!

(Of course, there’s nothing in the above paragraph that says there won’t be a post on April 1st…)

As always, I’d like to express my gratitude to everyone who has been providing me with support and encouragement as I’ve been developing the game! Thank you all so much!

This post might seem a bit short for a one-year anniversary post, but there’s honestly not much else to say, other than that I appreciate all of you…and I can’t wait to see your reactions to the next update! See you soon!
