This YanDev screenshot is kinda really fucking funny out of context

[depravedsafehaven]

I know there are real victims of yandere dev, and I'm not trying to joke about what he did to them. But this screenshot, it just always makes me laugh because it's so absurd that he thought he had a point here.

REMINDER THAT ALEX "YANDEREDEV" MAHAN GROOMED A 16-YEAR OLD GIRL, INTIMIDATED HER INTO SILENCE, AND COPYRIGHT CLAIMED AN EXPOSÉ OF HIS ACTIONS. (WE GOT CONFIRMATION THAT ALEX DID SO USING HIS VICTIM'S NAME)

THIS IS AN ARCHIVED LINK OF THE EXPOSÉ. THIS IS HERE FOR YOU TO SEE DUE TO THE STREISAND EFFECT; BECAUSE ALEX MAHAN DOESN'T WANT YOU TO SEE IT.

DO NOT SUPPORT YANDERE SIMULATOR. DO NOT SUPPORT YANDEREDEV.

IF YOU ARE A MINOR IN THE FANDOM, GET OUT NOW WHEN YOU HAVE THE CHANCE BEFORE HE PREYS UPON YOU NEXT.

IF YOU ARE AN ADULT IN THE FANDOM, CONDEMN ALEX MAHAN FOR HIS VILE ACTIONS AND CUT ALL SUPPORT TO HIM.

IF YOU STILL SUPPORT HIM DESPITE THIS DAMNING EVIDENCE, DO NOT INTERACT WITH THIS POST. YOU WILL BE BLOCKED FOR AIDING AND ABETTING HIM.

Losing my absolute mind over YanDev fans forgiving him for his predatory behavior just because he donated $1000+ to an organization.

That doesn't fix anything. That just means he can slap money on a problem and people will forgive him as soon as they see the payment receipt. That is despicable. The victim is still affected. People always want to forget the victim exists.

If money is all it takes to make people leave YanDev alone then he's just going to keep doing it over and over again, thinking he can just get away with milking money out of his fans to donate to an organization.

"Wow, you donate a lump sum of money! We forgive you, YanDev!" It's not your apology to accept.

He's been sus for years and it's all come to this point. I wouldn't be surprised if he's already done this many times but he's never been exposed for it.

“The victim of grooming doesn’t consider herself a victim of grooming.” WOW it’s almost like that’s what GROOMING does to the victim. Who would’ve thought that grooming, the act of establishing a connection with a minor to lower the child’s wariness about those sorts of topics, would lead to the victim having difficulty knowing that they were groomed. WHO WOULD’VE THOUGHT?

The Snapchat messages don’t exactly help your case.

If anyone is wondering if that Yandere Developer is still insane, the answer is yes.

So I got bored and decided to email Alex calling him out on all the controversial things in his game to see if he's still responding to, as he puts it "pointless emails" and low and behold: he is.

The original email wasn't supposed to be serious, as I am not passionate about the game, but he called me a liar so I responded to him(I do NOT like being called a liar.) WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE FOR PEOPLE TO BE OFFENDED BY THE TEACHER RIVAL????!??!!

Also why was bro responding to me at midnight?!??! DOES HE SLEEP?!?

I'll let y'all know if he responds.

lore accurate response to being caught

Coming out of retirement to say a few things.

What Yandere Dev has done is absolutely unforgivable and beyond disgusting. If you are in any way excusing his actions, I implore you to take a good hard look at yourself and ask why you are defending a confirmed groomer.

Stop supporting Yandere Simulator in any way. Support the VAs who have quit and call on the remaining VAs to quit as well. Do not forgive or forget the awful things Alex has been allowed to get away with for so long.

Both because I do not wish to, and because it is legitimately disturbing, I won’t go into detail about the grooming Alex is confirmed to have done, but if you do decide to look into it, I have to warn you one of the victims was allegedly 9 years old when it started. Jesus Christ. Even thinking about it makes me want to puke.

Fuck Yandere Dev, fuck Yandere Simulator, and I pray for peace and justice for his victims.

Saki: We are throwing a Halloween party at our school. It’s gonna be the greatest thing ever!

Yui: Someone will die

Saki: Of fun!

Yui: And of murder

Saki: There’s going to be sake, pumpkins—

Yui: Bloody goblins

Saki: Fake ones. It’s gonna be awesome. We have decorations—

Yui: Dead people that we just murdered

Saki: Not murdered! But pictures of dead people from horror movies

Yui: Mutilated bodies

Saki: But fake ones. Candy, dancing, whisky. All kinds of food and snacks

Yui: Blood orphans

Saki: No—no blood orphans…I don’t know what that is

A Note On LOVESTARVED's Warnings/Triggers

(sound on to hear voice acting :3)

Okay, so maybe more like a ramble than a note, but still x3

I'm probably just being paranoid here, but I wanted to mention a side note on the warnings & triggers for LOVESTARVED because I worry somewhat that they make the content sound much worse than it actually is >.<

I mainly just wanted to say that while the story does contain horror elements within the romance, it is still, at its heart, romance.

Yes, it's kinda twisted and a little messed up, but it's still a love story that's got plenty of cute and cosy moments too x3

Heck, when I was trying to describe the atmosphere I was aiming for to @lazypolarbearart so that we could be on the same page with the writing and the art, I said to her that it was supposed to be cosy and kind of incubating. Like you're stuck somewhere dark, but you're almost not worried about it because it's like being trapped in a big warm bubble that you don't really want to leave because it's comforting and less scary than what's outside, haha.

I always have this fear that maybe that side of things doesn't come across very well in my announcement posts or the itch pages of the games that I make >.< 

If I'm being completely honest, I don't really know how to strike the right sort of balance between warning people about potentially sensitive content VS accidentally spoiling things + talking about horror-related content VS romantic content when both intermingle in the same project + just generally being caught between saying too much or holding stuff back. Everything seems so blurry and messy to me :( Like it's all one giant grey area, but no matter what I do to try and clarify things, it will be detrimental somehow.

For example, in the LOVESTARVED demo (and eventually the full game) it's possible to romance Erys in a way that avoids any horror-type scenes even happening! Things can be super sweet with the yandere traits appearing soft... or seriously screwed up with things being much darker. It all depends on the player's choices, and the mildly sexual content that's in there is completely avoidable.

(sorry, I couldn't resist x3)

That's what's so great about visual novels as a genre :D Your choices can change so much about what happens throughout the course of a story :3

It's just I struggle to know how to describe my games while keeping potential players safe and not putting people off x3

Content warnings should absolutely be there so that people can make an informed decision about whether or not to play, but my big worry is that they make things sound scarier than they are. It's like expecting something awful to happen & for things to be grim before even having a chance to form an opinion if you read through the big list of warnings >.<

I feel like that creates a double problem because: A - If you're a horror fan and actually looking for creepy content, the warnings might sort of oversell stuff in a sense, leaving you somewhat disappointed that half of the things listed were only briefly featured. Or if you decided not to read the warnings because you're confident you'd be fine, you might wonder afterwards why there was such a long list there in the first place.

B - If you're worried about 1 or 2 specific things but are generally fine with horror-related aspects, you might avoid something unnecessarily because it sounds so much worse on paper than it is in reality.

It's not a completely unfounded fear either, as I've had players say to me in the past that X game looks cool, but they read the warnings, and have decided not to play that particular one because it sounds too scary (The Hostage & Dawn of the Damned are the ones I seem to get that with most!), but then they've later changed their mind, decided to check out the game, and then told me that it wasn't anywhere near as bad as they were expecting it to be and they enjoyed it in the end :3

I would never want to end up accidentally hurting anyone with the stories I put out there in the wild >.< It's important that people are able to make decisions that can keep themselves safe. But it saddens me that sometimes having so many content warnings on horror-related romance projects can make them seem so much worse than they are.

Anyways, I'm probably overthinking things as usual x3 My stupid brain is messed up right now from the lack of sleep during the jam, but it's gone all hyper instead of calming the heck down >.>

I don't know if anyone will read this or understand where I'm coming from x3 but I just felt like I needed to get it off my chest because it's been bothering me every time I release a new game with a love interest that has yandere traits, haha.

I personally don't think any of my games are particularly scary! And in most of them that feature romance with a yandere LI, things are coming from a place of genuine love. It may be darker, deeper, more intense love… possibly not even the healthiest kind, depending on the character in question >.< but it's love nonetheless.

I just wish there was a better way to show that than I currently know how because right now, I'm concerned that some of my games look like horror games with nothing sweet in-store when really, a lot of them are more like romance games wearing a creepy Halloween costume x3

Feel free to poke me if you have any ideas/experience/thoughts on how to tackle this sorta stuff :3

This post really doesn't need to be made, but when has that ever stopped me?

Content warning for mentions of grooming, p*dophilic behavior, and such forth.

We talkin Yandere Dev.

So another set of allegations have been made against the creator of Yandere Simulator, and these ones are evidently concrete enough that even he can't weasel his way into calling them fake or hate. Imo, a long time coming.

Yandere content is a lot like BDSM in the sense that consent should be placed above all else. It contains a lot of dark acts, psychological "issues", and violence that should not be forced upon those who are not keen to read or see it. Minors cannot consent. And yet, a large portion of his fan base are minors.

As a huge enjoyer of yandere content myself, and someone who unfortunarly played this game in midde school, I cannot express enough how glad I am that his project is now on the road to dying, and how much I hope that it remains on that road. Several larger youtubers that played the game regularly like Kubz Scouts (or however they're spelled) have said they're no longer going to play it, and many of the team is leaving, such as the voice actors and volunteers. Good.

I don't have the receipts to share, personally, but there are multiple videos out there for you to see yourselves from creators, some victims and some just compiling the evidence, if you look for "yandere dev controversy" on YouTube.

Take that with his previously incel/misogynistic behavior, his constant sexualization of many of his characters, and his previous fanfics where he writes about forced intimacy. I read a lot of noncon. But I don't then make a game based on high schoolers using PANTY SHOTS as currency. No, they aren't all 18. Because one of the "18" year old characters has a younger sister...who is also 18? Make it make sense.

If you are a minor, or you know minors who enjoy this sandbox of a game, please ensure that you know what kind of manipulator is the one designing it.

What is love? Madness, I guess.
