  • Club Leaders now wear a "Red Armband of Leadership" on their left arms.

  • If the player speaks to a Club Leader who is in their clubroom, club-specific dialogue options will appear.
  • The player can ask a Club Leader for information about their club, ask to join the club, ask to quit the club, or ask to participate in club activities.

  • If the player murders the leader of a club, that club will disband.
  • If the player quits a club, they won’t be allowed to re-join.

1/2/2016
  • Instead of having Yandere-chan drop her weapon when the day ended, Yandere-chan will bring her weapon home with her which will count as disposing the weapon.

  • Did a better job of hiding the Student Council President.
1/3/2016

2/1/2016
  • There are now 7 Personality types, or “Personas” in total.
  • The 3 new ones are Coward, Evil, and Social Butterfly.
  • (Female) Students will now react when the player aims a camera at them. Their reaction depends on their personality.
  • For now, all male students will have the Loner personality or Teacher’s Pet personality, and will not react to the camera. I can’t give them other personalities or reactions because, at this point in time, I don’t have an animation rig for male characters, and I can’t transfer female animations to male skeletons.
  • If the player joins the Photography Club, students will not react to the camera, and will allow the player to Photograph them without any problems.
  • Added a humorous “WARNING” message to the beginning of the game. I might remove it, if people complain that it gives the game the wrong vibe.
  • Added a bunch of “Fake” students who exist so that the player can join clubs that don’t have official club leaders yet.

  • Added 6 new hairstyles for Yandere-chan.
  • Added 1 new hairstyle for Senpai-kun.
  • Ever since the first week of the game’s development, Yandere-chan’s eyes would shrink when she lost her sanity. Previously, her eyes would shrink into very small dots. This reflects an “angry” character, not a “hollow” character, so I have changed the minimum size of her eyes. Her eyes can still shrink, but not as much as before. Her eyes are meant to say “I am empty and dead inside”, and not “I am violent and crazy.”
  • Previously, Yandere-chan’s eyes would become blank and lifeless when “Yandere Vision” was activated. Now, they become blank when she loses sanity.
  • Now, when Yandere Vision is activated, Yandere-chan’s eyes become red.
  • A shadow now gradually falls over Yandere-chan’s face as she loses sanity.
2/2/2016
  • It is no longer possible to tell a student to "Go Away" if they are currently walking from one place to another. It is now only possible to tell a student to "Go Away" if they have actually reached some destination that they intend to occupy for some time.
  • Previously, telling multiple students to "Go Away" would cause them to all travel to the exact same spot and attempt to occupy one position in space. Now, telling multiple students to "Go Away" causes them all to go to different spots.
  • Telling a student to "Go Away" will no longer make them spend hours standing alone somewhere. They will now only “Go Away” for a maximum of 60 seconds.
  • Students are no longer willing to perform favors for Yandere-chan if their next class begins in less than 30 minutes.

  • All body parts (head, torso, arms, legs) can be picked up, carried, dropped, and incinerated.
  • NPCs and police do not react to body parts yet.
  • As of now, dismemberment only works on females.
  • As of now, the body parts that appear after dismembering an NPC will always be clad in the default uniform.
  • It is now impossible to struggle against an NPC if the protagonist is holding a weapon that is too large to conceal, such as the katana or the circular saw. If a weapon is too large to conceal, then it's too unwieldy to use in close quarters and would only make Yandere-chan more vulnerable during a struggle.
  • At the request of an important person, all Undertale audio assets are now removed from the game, and the appearance of the "Gaster Blasters" has now been altered so that they are completely unique.
  • It is now possible to pick up a corpse and carry it while walking or running, if the player has leveled up their Physical Education stat at least one time.

  • Renamed Shi Ta to Shima Shita.
  • Added two new hairstyles for Senpai.

  • Students now have a spoken reaction to witnessing the player carrying around a circular saw.
2/21/2016
  • Attempted to implement support for all aspect ratios, not just the 16:9 aspect ratio that I've been using up until now. Warning: Any aspect ratio other than 16:9 will be buggy during Yandere Vision.

  • Added a new background track to the game (that means adding 9 versions, one for each combination of atmosphere and sanity). When the school day begins, the player has a random chance of hearing the old track or the new track.

3/31/2016
  • As of now, when multiple button prompts are visible onscreen, the game will highlight the one that is closest to the center of the screen, rather than the one that Yandere-chan is standing closest to. (This fixes the “Can’t pick up objects dropped near incinerator” bug.)
  • From now on, if a student witnesses a corpse while they are running to the locker room to change their clothing, they will switch their personality to “Loner” and run out of the school, instead of following their normal corpse-reaction routine.
  • Previously, when a student was following you, they would run when they were more than 5 meters away from you, and walk if they were less than 5 meters away from you. Now, students will run until they are 2 meters away from you.
  • Nearby pickups now have a little icon floating above them, instead of having a button prompt and name above them. The button prompt and the name of the object won’t actually appear until the player gets close enough.
  • Added textures to the castle area in Yanvania. Yes, that’s right, textures! Previously, the whole thing had no textures whatsoever! Everything was using solid colors until today! Check out Yanvania again!
  • When the player looks up a character’s information in the Student Info menu, “Club” will now change to “Occupation” when displaying the information of an adult.
  • Now, if the player kidnaps the week’s current rival, reduces her sanity to 0%, brings her to school, and hands her a weapon, she will commit suicide.
  • Updated Yandere-chan’s character model to use her trademark black stockings at the character customization screen.

  • Replaced the copyrighted music from the Cyborg Ninja easter egg with an original track by Damprog Music.
  • It is now possible to customize Senpai with facial hair.

  • A “Checklist” will now appear onscreen when the player is attempting to kidnap people in the “Kidnapping Room” of the school.
  • Added Kokona’s task to the Task menu.

  • If the player mashes the Confirm button (“E” on keyboard, “A” on controller) after Yandere-chan trips, the “stand up” animation will speed up.

To combat this problem, Social Butterflies now run to a collective hiding spot and huddle together, rather than “hide” in plain view of the killer.
  • Researched and successfully implemented a method for modifying textures while the game is running. (You can currently only see one example of this in the game right now: Midori’s stockings and panties are now green.) This opens up tons of customization potential in the future!
