About the Game

Love leaves traces. Some are impossible to erase.

In Yandere: Love & Madness, you step into the role of Nanami, a student whose feelings slowly blur the line between devotion and obsession.

Set within living, detailed environments filled with routines, friendships, secrets, and unexpected opportunities, the game blends psychological drama, suspense, and slice-of-life exploration. Spend your days however you choose, interact with different characters, uncover hidden sides of those around you, and shape Nanami’s path through your decisions.

Every relationship can become a turning point. Every choice can bring you closer to what Nanami wants… or push everything into chaos.

Story

Nanami appears to be an ordinary student, but beneath that calm image lies an intense determination to protect the love she refuses to lose.

However, her world begins to shift when Miya Isayama, a talented and charismatic guitarist, starts drawing attention. Known for her passion for music and her presence among other students, Miya is preparing for an important live performance at the end of Chapter 2.

As the day of the concert approaches, tension begins to build. Rumors spread, relationships change, and certain moments start to feel impossible to avoid.

Something is waiting beneath the surface.

And once the spotlight turns on, nothing may remain the same.

Android Version Notice

The Android version will require more time before release.

This is not only a matter of basic optimization. Because Yandere: Love & Madness is being developed with complex systems such as Motion Matching, contextual animations, open-world simulation, pedestrians, vehicles, and dynamic world loops, bringing the game to Android requires deeper engine-level optimization.

Some systems that work well on PC can be extremely demanding on mobile hardware. In particular, the Motion Matching animation system is very heavy, and for Android it may need to be replaced or redesigned into a more traditional animation system to achieve stable performance.

For this reason, Android requirements are not being listed yet. The mobile version is still planned, but it will need additional development time to ensure the experience feels stable, playable, and properly adapted to the platform.

Additional Notes

Playing on an SSD is recommended for faster loading times and smoother world streaming.

A dedicated GPU is recommended for the best experience, especially when using higher visual settings, larger open-world areas, and advanced animation systems.

The game is still in alpha, meaning performance, visuals, mechanics, requirements, and content may change as development continues.

Minimum supported resolution is now 720p / 1280x720.
