Since we've talked about Alex's favorite game idea and his rise to infamy as a streamer, I think, it's time to talk about how his biggest ordeal yet has begun. The time when weebs and pedos of /v/ stared into the abyss of autism for so long, that it finally stared back and spitted out "the game as complex as Persona 5 and Hitman", which will never be. Yes, it's time we talk about the history of Yandere Simulator threads!
But before we start, I must warn you - this post won't encapsulate them 100%, since it's impossible to point out every little thing in text form or with links. I'll try my best to describe how it was, but keep in mind that I'm limited by the format of a forum post and this research's given me an early dementia, so I tend to forget and miss stuff, so if you want a full experience, then use the txt file attached to that post, but be warned - it's not gonna be pleasant, unless you are into cuck porn and/or twitch thots. So without further interruption, let's boldly go into the place that for some fucking reason no one tried to look at before - YS threads on /v/!
In the twist of irony bigger than Alex fixing bugs at KungFu Factory, the first thread about the idea of that game was made on April 1st, 2014. He probably hoped, that if /v/'s gonna hate that idea, he can just fall onto "APRIL FOOLS" excuse, which he probably still has in case "it's like Minecraft" won't work. You all may've seen this one.
No wonder that trash still collecting fools all around the world to this day and every "anniversary" of it's development is a fucking joke.
The responses were mostly positive, people were throwing their ideas, but eventually the thread slipped into full weebery. Unsurprising, but there was one little detail that people seem to look over - Alex tells that he was "already working a crude prototype" and if we take Lunar Shite as a measure of progress, that can only mean, that Alex had already found some models on Unity store.
You'd better stuck to text adventure, buddy.
Thread dies, but Alex can't wait to show them his new Unity models, so the next fucking day he creates another one!
Only Alex would call what seems to be two premade models using premade animations a "pre-alpha", but somehow it was enough - anons start shooting suggestions and you will be baffled by how much of the game is made out of them, but that's for later.
You think that would be enough, but the very next day he makes another one!
You don't say you are lazy, Alex!
Notice how he calls shitting ideas a "third day" of development, that's where his "12 hours a day of working on YS" are probably coming from. This thread marks a new spike in Alex's delusions, since it's where he calls his Greenlight trash "as deep as Hitman" for the first time.
Of course, he makes another one next day, with such highlights as Alex refusing to tell that he uses Unity and refusing to use a tripcode, but what's funnier is these two:
And so Alex's been felling guilty since...
Yep, four days into that shitshow some anon already knew what's gonna happen, you can't make this shit up!
However, the thread he made next day marked several important events - firstly, he creates his wordpress blog, because anons tell he needs one as the developer. Secondly, this was the first time when Alex showed some
bought animations "gameplay" on a dedicated YT channel.
And the first use of the tripcode YandereDev !W3WJP6pIt2, which he takes despite the fact, that he was 100% against it just a day ago,
And also... THIS:
Hope you jerked-off to that, Alex, since it was probably a dude with a feminine voice.
Then another thread, where one namefag posts something that may look familiar to you.
Yep, all the premise about her being a fucking robot that can't even enjoy food is the product of some weeb namefag shitting three posts in a span of 4 minutes! Who could've thought!
But now, let me ask you something - when do you think it'd become clear, that models and animations are bought assets? 6 months alter? Two months? How about six days!
And don't be naive - Alex will mention that again and again in a course of months, yet these cocksuckers won't see it as a big deal until it finally becomes clear, that YanDev is EvaXephon. However, even they had some moments of clarity, since when Alex creates another fucking thread the next day, people start picking on him and he has his first outburst.
People point out, that there is no point in these threads, if he isn't going to show much progress, so Alex takes this to heart and makes new thread entire three days after that. This time someone recognizes Unity, but of course those simps are ok with it.
After a couple of useless threads and some Yandere Clicker shilling he finally uncovers one of two reasons behind his famous feature creep:
As you may've guessed, /v/irgins had enough experience with school bullies to SIMPatize with him right there and as you may remember, some of them (or maybe it was Alex without a tripcode) recognized it was Mike Z. What's more surprising is the fact, that it seems Alex spent May of 2014
with a trip off working on YS, since there were no threads about it until June 14th, where he says this:
I have flashbacks of his article about Beyond: Two Souls.
Don't be naive - weebs were asking for yuri mode since day one and "stalking a boy is gay" is as old, so Alex is just asking for asspats with their own arguments. But still he had some of his own ideas:
Schoolgirl reads hentai to seduce male teacher... That will help you to get your game back on Twitch, Alex.
After that Alex limited his LARPing to two threads a months and the highlight of the next thread is that statement:
He will create his Patreon page a month later...
And this:
The next thread reveals the fact, that Alex, who visited game design classes, has no design document, three fucking months into development:
It's also funny how some anons kept bringing up Mike Z out of the blue, like if they had a beef with him, not Alex. Suspicious! That also marks something interesting - that thread gets deleted for advertisement, which makes me think, that some anons were irritated with them enough to report.
That wasn't the only thing that began getting on people's nerves.
Oh, you think?
Why don't you just tell him to pirate it, like you did back in the day? His Patreon was made a day before, by the way. In the next thread he tries to manipulate his pet cucks into thinking that Kickstarter is the best option, otherwise his game will be "shitty, but free".
This shitshow ends after this thread gets wiped too, making Alex cry like a bitch:
Also, for the first time he gets really passive- and just plain aggressive:
Then thread on September 2, 2014 marks a new milestone - Alex comes with his first easter egg, despite not even having the school model at that point.
But something really unexpected happens two weeks later, when some anon posts this in another YS thread:
That's right, someone knew that YanDev is Eva at least three months before it happened in Lunar Scythe thread! I don't have a fullres of the first pic, but it looks like a screenshot from EvaXephon's chat, meaning that Alex openly talked about YS there. The second one is obviously the screenshot of his Examiner routine. As you may've guessed, all of this fell onto deaf ears and the rare responses were "so what? he is making a game!". Imagine siding with a pedo to get a weeb Hitman, but yeah, after all it's /v/eddit.
Alex himself ignored those posts, even though, it seems that he planned to reveal his identity after all:
It probably boosted his insolence so high, that a mere week after that reveal he began shitting /v/ with Lunar Scythe threads again. Furthermore, he reveals his second reason:
That's right, he outright throws into these cucks faces, that he makes YS only to make them love Lunar Scythe! And they love that game, despite shitting on it in a dedicated thread a week prior, knowing perfectly well that it'd been
made shilled by EvaXephon! Yeah, they are that dense and desperate for weeb Hitman.
We also get a more realistic insight into Alex's hard work on Yandere Simulator:
Two weeks pass and Alex has a funny freudian slip:
Well, "suspect" implies, that it's what you are going to do.
Next time he outright asks to be found out by starting a thread with that fucking artwork, that will get him found out.
Notice how his second post doesn't have a trip, but more on that later.
Also, he pulls his usual excuse about "it was years ago, guys". Six to be exact.

6 years ago was 2008. In 2007-2008 Alex was shitting /a/ with his theory about RahXephon and Evangelion. In 2009-2011 he was spamming /v/ with his stream, that was 3-4 years ago at the moment. In 2012-2013 he was shitting /v/ with his articles, that should've put him into jail, that was 1-2 years ago. In 2014 he was shitting /v/ with Lunar Scythe threads, which, in fact, he did three weeks before that post!
Two weeks later Alex finally adds playable map into the game, which marks two milestones:
First easter egg on an actual game map!
And the first wave of bugs and fps drops!
Others were reporting "solid 60 fps". On a map with fuck all and before Student_script. Yeah, they've got no one to blame, but themselves.
The next thread marks something unexpected - Alex is afraid, that his game will be overshadowed by none other, than Natsuhiro Highschool! Yes, the one he wrote
an article a day before and will write
another one later!
In fact, he is so scared, that he starts his next thread with that!
Interestingly enough, at least two times he gets called Eva in that thread.
He even responds second time! Damn, he was barely hiding!
Of course, those cucks say that they will love his game anyway, but all of that was about to change after January 5th, 2015, when at least one of Alex goals accidentally completes itself and /v/ finds out who they were simping for all this time. No, they didn't rip into him right there, but since that moment it wasn't the same and the bitter end was just the question of time.
Alex probably realized, that despite all the cocksucking, /v/ is not going to forgive him, so he starts his next thread with trying to suck up to them.
He then "teases" SNAP mode and that shitty cutscene causes anons in that thread go full soyjak.
If only they knew he will waste 5 years on that useless shit.
After that he hints, that people should kiss his ass, otherwise he will stop working on YS.
He also hints something else:
However, the tide was turning, since now Alex got his first portion of dedicated haters.
But Alex was busy enough with the development to appear in that thread.
And tell that he will never leave, despite hinting at that several times before.
Funnily enough, day later he reminds them, that if they stop kissing his ass, he will leave.
Also worth noting, that some anons say, that Alex was using his chat to cover his ass in those threads.
Next time on February 16, Alex slowly starts regretting that he moved away from Unity models stabbing each other, since after two months the number of bugs was still overwhelming.
Then Alex shows his coding mastery by posting a single noodle from his code.
You've got no one to blame but yourself for this goof, /v/!
Fast forward to March 16, 2015, where Alex manipulates his cucks into asking him to keep making those threads and hints something about "anniversary" of development, which isn't ironic at all.
He also tries to kill his trolls with pure cringe.
"There are people, who made their goal to ridicule you despite all of your attempts to debunk their claims..."©Alex Mahan, 2018
On March 30, one day before the "anniversary" Alex is about to eat those words - some swedish nazi makes his dream come true and plays YS, skyrocketing his popularity, which results in creation of this thread:
That was it. Not Alex's faggot nature killed this, not the fact, that it was just a bunch of Unity assets with spaghetti code, not his constant shilling, but the fact that now he was with those dirty normies! Alex didn't take long to appear there.
- No, Alex, you are the gremlins!
And then Alex was CWC.
Unsurprisingly, almost no one was buying that, since Alex wasn't a part of /v/ anymore. Desperate, he uses his last argument:
It's not very effective.
Denied his asspats, he runs to 8chan, but that doesn't mean that his history with /v/ ended right there. The next day some anon emailed him and this was his response:
Of course, he pushes all the blame on /v/. Strange, that he didn't post it himself, since he wasn't even close to gone.
It all comes to hilarious resolution on May 15, when Alex asks this:
Well, you can just scroll up, but that's not the funniest part - that one happened when some anon finally decided to use image hash board search:
Yep, Alex was shamelessly samefagging in that thread! In fact, he'd been doing it for months, if not from the very beginning!
Also, take a look at that picture that he used on 8chan.
And now let's scroll up in that thread, where he was outed.
Same size, same resolution, same name, same format and same faggot behind that post.
And now take a look at
this thread, about Alex arguing with someone about "sanity metter" being offensive.
I think, it's obvious that Alex was OP of that thread.
It honestly surprises me that it took so long, since there was enough clues for that, like admitting he is posting from two browsers.
"Oh, guys, I refresh the page and my tripcode disappears, can you imagine that?"
Or admitting to posting on /v/ without a trip.
It's also nothing new, since he was samefagging as trufax or tru faq back in the day.
If you think, that Alex shilling Lunar Scythe while simultaneously shilling YS and samefagging looked ridiculous, then you are more than right.
Red is LS threads, pink is YS threads/Alex posting with a trip, green is Alex samefagging and blue is Alex posting on 8 chan.
Was it the end of YanDev and 4chan? Well, no, since he appeared a couple of times with his tripcode again and it was nothing short of hilarious.
Then during his STOP SENDING ME EMAILS spergout.
And the last time was just four days after his complete meltdown on 8chan. "Battered wife", lol.
3 months ago you talked about "hiring a coder, who will do a much better job than you" adn now "your code is a lot better"?
By the way, what happened with this?
Then in 2020 some faggot took a hold of Alex's tripcode and shits /v/ with it to this day, so basically, nothing has changed. If you are curious how he did it, well...
But there are still couple of things that I'd like to mention. For starters, do you remember what Alex's degree is? Arts degree in animation, right? Can you guess what volunteer he needed the most and was bitching about often than not?
The fuck Alex was doing there for three years?
When someone suggested Alex to use his degree, this is what he said:
He was bothering at least three animators over the course of YS threads.
It also seems, that he knew that he is going to sperg over size mod in the future.
Also, if you wondered why that japanese school has judo class instead of karate, well...
But that's not the only thing I wanted to point out. See, Alex isn't afraid to get called out about the contents of his game.
Oh, Kotaku? The same Kotaku you gave an
interview to and told that "all depicted characters are 18, even if otherwise is specified"? Because you specified that yourself multiple times!
"Middle or high school"? Well, unfortunately for you, neither of those is 18.
Also, see those hentai "uniforms"? To be fair, that wasn't Alex's idea.
He just teased /v/ with them so many times, that it looked like it was his idea!
What's this? You like outrage from SJWs?
Yeah, I am sure they will be mad over you describing in details how to kill entire classroom.
Or how about the idea with "selling a girl into sex slavery for the rest of her life"? Still can't let go of your fanfics?
Yeah, at the very least he wanted to add torture dungeon, but not the torture itself...
...because he thought that otherwise Steam won't let him sell his game.
And he was against onscreen sex for the same reason!
Or was he?
But at least despite all the hentai uniforms, rape dungeons and underage children, it's not a fetish game, right?
Take a look at this list of rivals that Alex was shilling time after time after time. Can you guess three rivals any sane person will have problems with?
So let me guess, sexy nurse doesn't account for any fetish? Nevermind the fact, that he stated numerous times, that she WILL prey on students.
So busty hentai teacher doesn't account for any fetish either, even though she too is going to do inappropriate things with students, maybe even on screen, like you suggested?
And sister... Don't you ever let this motherfucker fool you, that she just doesn't want her brother to have a girlfriend, when he himself posted this shit!
And even if all of that is not enough, then why Alex wanted his non-fetish game to be "as good as Natsuhiro School" - 100% fetish game?!
Just so you could have a better idea of what this "game" is!
Yeah, imagine if Kotaku would find out? I am sure Alex won't give a single fuck, like he said he would.
Now about all the suggested stuff. I won't post any direct links or screenshots, since this post is already bloated enough, but you can find everything in the attached file. So the list includes, but not limited to:
- Dedicated laugh button.
- Insanity meter.
- Different panties giving bonuses.
- Game over if you kill senpai's sister.
- Someone joked about running with toaster in your mouth - Alex added it as a fucking easter egg.
- Yuri was suggested many times, until Alex himself said, that "stalking boy is gay" and that "he felt uncomfortable stalking a boy", but stalking a girl is fine, I guess.
- Already mentioned premise about Ayano being a fucking robot instead of yandere.
- School clubs.
- Many talks about "doing stuff like in Hitman" with obligatory "I don't wanna to rip it off too much".
- Same with Bully. if it wasn't obvious.
- And Persona, of course.
- Info-chan is a rip-off of Yoshio Saotome from "Tokimeki Memorial" by Alex's own admission.
- But partially some anon's idea.
- Gossip.
- Yandere vision.
- Heart-shaped pupils.
- Cellphones were suggested in a thread and Alex was against them!
- Ayano's mother being a psycho too and a game mode as her weren't his idea either.
- Intimidation.
- Shrine wasn't either.
What about placeholders? Play it as drinking game, if you want to get shitfaced.
- All models x 3
- All artwork.
- Animations x 2
- Main character x 4
- The title "Yandere Simulator".
- Graphics.
- GUI x 2
- Text.
- All names.
- Main character's look.
- All hairstyles.
And YS itself is probably a placeholder for something good, that will never be.
So there you have it. Like I've said before, this situation mirrors Lunar Scythe perfectly. Same premade assets, same shitty code, same terrible performance and idiotic premise. The only difference is that instead of trying to make /v/ like his game idea and a character, this time Alex pandered for /v/ and their(and his, since he is a /v/irgin too) disgusting fetishes instead and boy, oh, boy they didn't dissappoint! If he managed to keep his identity a secret, he would've probably fooled these ignorant simps to this day, like he does with his Reddit hugbox.
