Guys, we truly appreciate all your perspectives and understand where you’re coming from so let’s please try to keep things chill. ❤️

We’re also a queer team, and it’s important for us to see ourselves represented in the games we create. That’s why we added pronoun and gender customization in our other romance VN The Winter Wedding. However, for How to Break Up with Your Yandere Boyfriend, some narrative themes made it more appropriate to tell the story specifically from a female perspective. That said, we know even among female players, not everyone will relate to the MC due to the heavy trauma in her past and how it shapes her choices.

Regarding the use of edited background photos, we currently don’t plan to replace them in future updates, except possibly for key images that hold more weight in the narrative. Fully illustrated backgrounds would significantly raise both the cost and development time, which would directly impact the game’s price. As a small indie team, we made this decision to move forward more efficiently and affordably. We hope to have a bigger budget for future projects to explore more options.

Lastly, yes, we’re planning to release the full game on both Itch and Steam, as long as no major platform issues arise.

Thank you so much for your understanding, support, and interest in our work! 💖

I think given the background of the MC, this was the right choice to tell this type of story. As a man if the MC was male, this would come off, dare I say unrealistic. Due to how men communicate with each other vs. Men and Women.

Our MC clearly lives in a world where her partner has a huge impact on her stability. You can tell by how she talks about her ex and her current boyfriend. A part of her issue is what he is not giving to her as opposed to how he would receive what she brings to the table. Both her boyfriends were very much had the role of being the provider in her relationships with them. While this would not be impossible with 2 men, it would read very differently.

I think people have it twisted, that asking is a bad thing - which it isn't. It's not taking anything away from them and it's not making it any less for them. Like you said, it's important for you to see yourself represented. This is a fictional scenario people may want to headcanon and immerse themselves in, myself included. It shouldn't matter to anyone but me how I see myself as the MC - regardless if it's a female lead or not. 

It's totally fine about the backgrounds, understandable about development times and costs. 

Steam release is exciting to hear though.

Thanks for replying
