KLEIN v.0.1
LOG 02 RELEASE
LOG 02 UPDATE IS LIVE !
i'll follow up with the updated content warning list and the endings guide shortly ^^
THIS UPDATE'S HIGHLIGHTS . . .
STORY PROGRESSION the story will progress based on which route you stayed in previously. there are 3 portions of this update, narrative-wise:
- Klein's route (2 branching paths) ~1-hour playtime
- Yael's route (linear with added player choices) ~1-hour playtime
- General route (shared events and plot progression) ~20 minutes playtime
in the previous update, Klein's route was significantly shorter than Yael's, but this time it's a lot more balanced.
THIS UPDATE INCLUDES:
- Al's route [prologue] :
al enjoyers, you might want to read this: if you're seeking to gain AP ( affection points ) for him (which will matter in the next update ), stick with Yael's route! just be sure not to gain too many affection points with him LOL—keep him in da friend zone...
- 9+ new CGs (not including variations)
- new outfits for Klein (you get to choose his style!)
- ethan screentime LOL
get ready for emotional damage
- improved UI for smoother navigation.
- bug fixes for continuity errors in Yael's route and dialogue flow in Klein's.
- the narration throughout the entire narrative has been updated for consistent use of present tense.
OTHER NOTES
you may experience error from playing with older builds. i'm sorry for the inconvenience in case of save files being reset/loss. older builds are not likely to be compatible with this version because there are significant changes made T T
you might want to explore the demo logs because i've slipped in a handful of new CGs in some routes ( if you're a new player, please ignore this lol )
any kind of feedback would be very welcomed. you can share your thoughts here or through this this feedback form as per usual. i apologize in advance for any errors you might come across, please be sure to notify me about it and i'll be very happy to assist / get to it immediately!
thank you for everyone's patience and support. i appreciate it beyond words can express
i hope this update is fun and worth the wait, and i'm so excited to hear everyone's thoughts on it!

someone help me pls!!!
how can i get to klein's route?? no matter what i do i just get yael's route
*spoilers* I have to add this to my comment below xD !
My first impression was great and it still is, just some additional thoughts!
I really loved how Klein showed early on that he is sus and overstepping. I really enjoyed seeing how creepy he got after mc lied to him about beeing busy.
BUT after that expectaitons weren´t met sadly. Bc he got so scary in the beginning which set the standard early on, but then nothing really.
Yeah some bad things happend, yeah you could say that it was prob klein or al, but the sacry reacitons from klein and how he interacts in that way with mc like in the beginning wasn´t there at all!
Since I played a loooot of those typa games, I thought that he would try to get mc´s attention back, hacking her phone was a save call but it was only mentioned briefly out of the blue.
But the progress of really having to deal with finding out your phone is hacked, being scared bc you can´t do smt about it, or Klein just plopping his app open by himself would be soooooooooooo much more fun for the player !! Then we could get to really feel the situation and be more drawn into the gameplay.
In my opinion a lot things gave me that vibe of ``hey that´s really scary, but when did this really happen? Oh- ok its not mentioned anymore at all and back to some random small talk`` which is really sad, hope in the next updates we really get to experience the sistuation mc is in!
*Spoilers* Beforehand I love the game!! I only did one route so far (the route with yael) and I must say I kinda got bored in between, it just didnt happen a lot with klein.. I got the thing were he kinda crashed out in the beginning after mc lies about being busy, but after that nothing really! Ofc mc and the others are investigating from time to time bc of sisters death etc.
But I really wished that klein would be more like a visible threat so we can really see how he is obessed with mc or whatever and interact with him. Hope it´s clear what I mean, it feels like it´s just to much non important chats and far too less about klein and the problematic with him and his behaivor towards us. Especially in this route, since Klein was jelous of yael from the beginning and it would fit his character to try to be more present then.
Also I thought since mc gets stalked (by klein or/and Al) we would see more of like a feeling of being unwel when being alone outside, or even with friends. I mean I felt like some points weren´t adressed as much as I would excpect -> for example the thing with Al just being infront of mc´s door or mc´s things getting stolen from the apartment. Or the text´s from an unkown number! Those details felt really scary and it was fun playing, but then nothing further really..
I will try the other routes ofc! Still am kinda disappointed haha, I wished they would´ve gon all out with klein/al and make their creepy behavior the center of attention or atleast never really drift off too much.
All in all I really do LOVE the game! I just think it would be far more exciting if they would focus more on the main theme of the game, which is the unhealthy obsession from klein/al and they´re wrongdoings. Can´t wait for more updates!!! <333
AI was the one who "pick" the mc items? i guess so.. AHHH klein is fcking scary ahhhh and sorry for the sister TT and the boss and AI maybe are father and son??? red hair and pink hair.. oh wait AI have black hair dyed pink? AI is a bit scary but he didn't anything too strange soo i guess is fine? oh AI can be a love interest or just Yael and Klein? ahhh i can't wait for the update!!! the story is getting interesting
Can I ask are AI or our boss is love interest?
light spoilers! love love love yael, i love a gentle man with slowburn plot!! loved hanging w the friends too, klein was super crazy n scary when doing yaels route o.o looking forward to seeing al's playthru too! looking forward to log3 (˶′◡‵˶）rlly good for ur first game aswell
nightmare scenes were so scary!! cutesy dating sim turned into a spooky stressful experience (esp when those figures were chilling in the living room and the sleep para thingy1!1! no thank u!!!)

can someone help me how do you get the secret end
Hi, i just downloaded it, but i have a couple of issues (english is not my first language, sorry). The rollback button (the one that lest you go back on text and options) doesnt work, it just doesnt show, the main menu everytime i wanna click an option it just glitches, sorry for the question but can i do anything to fix it? i really wanna play it
I have the same issue! But after for a while of playing, I've noticed if you click menu, there is an option called log/history log. You can basically review the text messages there, freely as much as you'd like!(Hope this helps:>)
Hi! I absolutely loved (absolutely terrified) the LOG 1 release aand when I found out LOG 2 released I wanted to play it again!!

Sorry, but is AI route in the 3.0.0 ver alr or nah?
I made an account just to comment because I’m genuinely so in love with your game, I think you’ve done such a great job, this is definitely one of my favourite visual novels ever!
I wish there was a app like this, I couldn't find any virtual boyfriend app 😔
try love and deepspace or character ai
Was there any chance for this game to be available on Android? pls im so interested!!
Thank you for the update, it's so good btw... but how can i start Klein's route without slaping my dearest sister TT cz i love her so much. I dont wanna play his route again bc i have to do such a bad thing to my sister and that hurt me so much u know TT. It was such a hard feeling to deal with but i think you built his route so good, though it makes me kind of hate this character... maybe it also makes him less attractive as a love interest (for me)
this is how i realized there was a klein route. (i kept doing the yael route on accident and had no idea how to get kleins)
yeah if you havent try his route yet, you can choose dont go to work (take your day off) and slap your sister (ya have to do that to enter the Klein route) when she visits you on this day ;) yeah i feel so bad when i do that but ughh. But HIMEIRO did his route well bc play his route makes me feel really guilty...
Thank you for the update!
I dont know if I'm doing something wrong but how far can you go with Yael right now? I can see an image with Yael presumably calling us darling on the main page but I cant seem to get past the awkward friends stage. Love the game btw
Ehhhh how you can see an image with Yael calling us darling on the main page TT?? How can you get it TT, i have played his route again and again just to see how far we can go with him but... nothing else than a 'friend' :(
I love your game!
