Cultcow EvaXephon / Yanderedev / Alex Mahan / Alexander Stuart Mahan / cannotgoogleme - Edgy weeaboo coomer with pedo tendencies and 15+ years internet history as a lolcow, now known as a disaster developer behind eternal debug build called "Yandere Simulator", confirmed groomer and dollfucker

I guess if he was able to stifle the ego for a few and take some of the advice he was given onboard then that had the potential to at least playable, reading what i've read and watched what i've watched on the guy, i don't think that would have ever happened.

No, you don't want to work or to get a degree to help yourself and family, you want to roleplay.
With this "lore" this academy should be for 30+ yo perverts who has a school-student kink.

Alex would be the first one to sign up for that program, since he missed his formative high school years. Maybe Senpai is even more of a self-insert than he's already considered to be.

You see, when you try to write lore about a rich Mary Sue girl being allowed to plan a large high school campus because her dad wants her to “learn” management skills, dumb stuff like this is going to pop up.

“Roleplaying as a high school student” isn’t something adults usually like to do, Alex.

Usually people exaggerate his claims here, but the quoted portion was literally typed out by Alex. Fantastic.

I feel like the easiest solution would be to say it’s some anime specialized school like Hope’s Peak academy from the Dangan Ronpa series. Dangan Ronpa was on the inspiration table for him before.

It's even more fucking funny considering the context of this entire situation. His old name, EvaXephon is a mix of the anime titles Neon Genesis Evangellion and RahXephon where he autisically compared the two based merely on similar looking scenes (the episodes didn't match) and tropes that are in every action show/anime. When he bought it up to an anime forum, he was criticized leading to him lashing out and leaving. It's disappointing only like a few people picked up on that while idiots just pump out the same, tired lazy dev jokes/rhetoric.

Yeah, somehow teens killing and torturing each other is less creepy than adults larping as teenagers and doing exactly the same. Sure thing Twitch is going to buy this excuse.

 

[lolnope]

Is this why he keeps ripping off other games?

 

[Czolg]

Despite claiming many, many times that he's not the same person as he was in his Evaxephon days (which is obviously untrue), he once again proves that he hasn't even let go stuff like his comparisons of RahXephon and Evangelion.
Truly poetic.

Never change, Eva. Never change.

i like how white knights in comments unironically call people who said something bad about YD as gremlins.

comment: "Now, how long does it take to make a game?"

It's almost ironic that they call trolls "gremlins" consider how Alex looks nowadays. Also, i know this isn't universally the case but i wouldn't call a 30+ year old man who is living with his parents watching anime, playing games and not doing anything at all influencing in any context except for suicide and depression rates

 

[FeatherDuster]

but i wouldn't call a 30+ year old man who is living with his parents watching anime, playing games and not doing anything at all influencing in any context except for suicide and depression rates

But how else are the anime body pillow companies gonna get their money without these people?

 

[Russtard]

This is by far one of Alex’s most retarded ideas to date. What parents in their right mind would pay to let their 18-20 year old LARP as a high schooler instead of getting a job or going to college? That juku would be overrun by pedos.

>Call of Duty is made within 3 years as it's tossed around three separate companies, and still is classified a AAA franchise
>Sports games are a yearly release and are usually called AAA
I'm just listing off games that everyone just lists of as "overhyped AAA garbage". If you want a better comparison, God of War PS4 had a 4 year development time, with sequels apparently going to take less time according to the director.

The devcycle of a medium quality medium sized AAA game is expected to be around 3 years, not 10. Not even Alex says that, he claimed it would take around 6, what is this lad smoking?

he probably just looked at the games he's ripping off and noticed that they all have a similar dev-cycle to what he mentions. Persona 5 was originally supposed to release in 2014, and just assumed that the time between Persona 4 and 5 (Persona 4 originally came out in 2008, with the remake coming out in 2012 and Persona 5 came out in 2017, with a rumored remake being announced in 2019) was "average" AAA devtime, even though Atlus really isn't a AAA studio.

New blog post, and apparently Alex actually implemented a saving function.
There's also a weird hitman thing? Because Alex can't drop the fact that his game is a hitman clone.

I'm honestly impressed.
However, the Christmas video is... lackluster. Michaela can't sing. At all.

To be serious, i don't like how features in YS way too simular to hitman gamepley. Hitman is a professional killer who killed many-many people and gameplay in a game helps to imitate a professional. YanChan is a young girl who just becoming a serial killer, and it's fine and predictable for her to mess up killing. The most interesting part in YS letsplays is when letsplayer messed up his plans and improvising.

Is it me or does this just look extra rushed? Not only the art but the audio too.

"I checked the Unity Asset Store to see if there were any pre-made save/load systems that I could simply purchase and drop into the game."

I love how the first thing that came to his mind is "How can I get this" not "How can I make this"

Hitman 2 took two years of development, the franchise YanDev idolises and he can't even make a fraction of the content in double the time.
