Story and gameplay concepts below! vvv

You have been staying in Japan after traveling there for a highly advanced medical procedure. Your only friend, Koyomi, sees how isolated you have become here, and is encouraging you to get into dating. She offers to introduce you to the sweet, normal, well-adjusted single guys she knows in your apartment complex. But for whatever reason, she doesn't seem to want you to meet Kage, your next-door neighbor.

"There's something really off about him. If you decide to talk to him, obviously I can't stop you. Just...please be careful. He's really...fragile."

Every choice you make with/towards your yandere neighbor will have a disproportionately larger impact on him than all the other dating "options," for better or worse. Also, be careful about the other "options." Every choice you make with them also affects Kage.

Build your guys' stats through interactions and cute dates. Figure out what they like and make them cute gifts. Witness Kage become increasingly unhinged and navigate the fallout of his wacky antics.

What you say, do, don't say or don't do all matter. Especially to your yandere!

Why has he latched on to you so tightly? Reach the "true ending" to find out, along with answers to other questions raised along the way.

Choose your name, gender, and appearance. Choose your birthday for some fun birthday surprises. Choose your guy, or guys. But remember Koyomi's advice: be really careful with Kage. He's fragile.

Just a brief check in here since I realize it's been almost a week since I posted any updates here; I took a couple of days off for some personal business but I am still working on the game. Unfortunately I don't have much to show for it at this time because it's story writing. I have written it into the game, arranged the chibi sprite movement routes and all that, but I haven't drawn any art for a while, so posting screenshots would be kind of boring, and I don't want to post a video sequence because I'm not trying to do too many spoilers here...

But please trust I'm still working! I've also added options for the player to do their own keybinds since RPG Maker defaults to arrow keys and z/x for select and cancel. I don't know if I mentioned that already on here, but I remember playing Omori and how awkward it felt to not be able to do the traditional WASD keyboard movement, so players can set things up that way if they want to from the options menu.

Also I got it set up so that you can type things into the game when prompted for things like naming your player or putting in a word or numbers rather than having to use arrow keys to scroll through an on-screen alphabet, because that's also annoying as hell imo. But mostly it's been writing I'm working on.

I hope to have something interesting to show you guys soon though, like actual screenshots or something, I just have to get back into drawing.

hii! I was wondering if you were looking for an artist for your game? ^_^ so sorry if this seems rude

Hey no worries, thank you for offering but this is going to stay a solo project :) I have purchased art from other artists who will be in the credits (pixel art that has been designed with the game's engine in mind), but I'm not actually working "with" anyone in a team.

The logistics of that would be a nightmare for all involved as I'm terrible at coordinating with people, have completely erratic hours/no sleep schedule etc.

A small carnival area for Midnight City. I still need to blend out the gradient on the ambient light for the night time Ferris wheel. And make the interior map for the haunted house.

Also considering putting a clock on the Ferris wheel, but I'm not sure if that would cause lag or not...still thinking about that one.

WOMEN's GAME FEST (Spring 2025)

A game jam from 2025-03-01 to 2025-05-01 hosted by EVERIUM & Crystal Game Works. English WOMEN's GAME FEST is a celebration of games made fo

Yesterday I added the actual mechanics into the game for leveling up the cats at the café, and added a feather toy. Each cat activity makes 1 hour of in-game time pass per round (but in reality takes less than a minute). No worries though, when you're not doing specific activities, time passes normally in the game (1 minute in game is 1 real life minute etc.). So no need to rush.

You may or may not be thinking, sheesh just move on from the cats already and get back to work on the main point of this game; dating and yandere harassment! To which I say:

I'm sorry

I will be working on more of the hand drawn sprites of the guys for White Day events next

Kage meltdown is coming soon

Please look forward to it

Hi everyone who's still here following this game development...really sorry that I fell off the radar for a while there. I'm not even sure how long it's been. I've been dealing with a pretty heavy family crisis/loss/grief lately and didn't have it in me for a while to do much else. I think I'm ready to start working on the game a bit.

I've added a zoo map here, including a version for spring (shown), summer, and autumn (zoo is closed in winter). I'm also working on a little lottery scratch off thing in the game. Sorry again to go so silent. Things were pretty dark for a while but I'm starting to feel better.

Hope everyone here is doing well

Oohhh weird question but will we occasionally catch a glimpse of Kage while moving around the map? Like when we go out to the shops does he follow us?

I'm very excited for this game 💕👑

There's always some evidence of him being not too far from the player, though I'm still looking at different ways to portray that, and it probably won't be just one thing or way of knowing.

I'm hoping to make some neat moments like that too though, where you can "spot him in the wild" :)

What software you use for making the game?

It's RPG Maker MV :)

For anyone following my yandere boyfriend rpg project progress, it's gonna be quiet on my page for a few days. I've got a *big* feature I'm working to implement that I think people will be excited about and I'm still trying to get it to all work together.

In the meantime, please accept this sweet heart from your sweetheart
