Your Other Half [DEMO]
A kidnapping plagues your relationship. It invades every conversation you have, and every thought you hold.
Your friend has gone missing.
They were someone you met through your university's newspaper committee. The last conversation you had with them was intimate, heartfelt, and ended up in you accidentally casting them to the wayside.
You try your best not to let your regret consume you, but it does. You forget about your own wellbeing, your responsibilities, your relationships — even the feelings of your own best friend.

If so, feel free to contact me on Discord: @fokkenvarbie <3

i would be so honoured 🥺❤️ if you make any content, please show me!! i'd love to see it <3
I made the post! :D
I couldn't link the post BUT it's on my account (yunhaolovergir)
Edit: cuz I forgot, it's on TikTok:)
AHHH IT'S SO CUTE OMG 😭😭 i love your persona design so much omg what a cutie 😭😭
preciso de uma versão em português brasileiro💔💔
i'm so sorry :( i can't guarantee a portuguese translation
hihi !! sorry to be a bother but on the website near the beginning it starts glitching and shows error codes (^-^; . . .
> it would be good to let me know if it really is a glitch or just part of the game (^人^)
hey!! i'm so sorry you're having this experience :( that is not intended
are you playing on a mobile device? that would be the most likely occurrence for this happening.
unfortunately, the game is not built to be run on mobile and thus can cause a lot of issues when attempted T__T i'm so sorry!
if you're not playing on a mobile device, could you please tell me the error codes? i'd love to be able to fix this for you!
HIIII!!!! I just completed the game and the gameplay is sooo good! The artwork is fire, the characters are fine and there are factors that make this yandere game more different than other yandere games! Like for example: The gaame showing the cruelty of what happens if someone kidnapping someone for something petty as love. That matter is not talked about enough and im glad the scene at the end showed it through and through! Kasen's life was turned just because of Yunhao, I was heartbroken for Kasen that i wished in continuation of this game, we get a route where we save him... where MC faces how cruel Yunhao was. Overall I love this game smmmm i'm looking forward to playing a continuation of it. Great work!!!
Also im guessing Yunhao manipulates himself as much as he manipulates others? Like he indirectly manipulates himself that what he is doing is good, bringing MC with that assumption.
i really appreciate your analysis of the game and yunhao's character a lot!!! much of what you said is spot-on, so i'm glad it came off that way <3
thank you so so much for playing!!! i'm really happy you enjoyed T__T (also, there will be a route similar to what you're hoping for!)
The characters and the art is so peak!!! That why l gonna give a try!!
The characters have very interesting profile, with their name Chinese (which is so rare to see this, to me) just read it and understand the character right away! I also love their signature, so unique, unlike me lol!
I have download the game and will play soon! But so far, l think you did so well and keep it up!! I will review the game without spoiler soon!! <<33 hehe
i'm really glad you like the characters!!! i had a lot of fun coming up with their different signature styles so i'm glad someone saw it <3 LOL
thank you so much for downloading!!! i hope you enjoy it when you end up playing 🥺❤️
This needs more attention !!!! ALSO MORE DAYS I LOVE THIS VN ALREADY !!!!!
AHH THANK YOU FOR PLAYING!!! I'M GLAD YOU LIKE IT <3
i'm working on future days ^^ thank you so much for your patience!!

But anyways
This was so different from what I'm used too, man..
This was so damn beautiful
The writing also breaks my heart
I really like the characters and GOSH
KASEN💔💔
dude I can SEE WHY THEY'RE SO ATTACHED TO THEM
KASEN. OH MY GOSH THAT LOOK🥺
they break my heart a bit
I really hope their sister is ok :c
And the interactions between Kasen and yunhao
....
I don't think I have ever felt sadder in a novel.
The writing is phenomenal, OUTSTANDING WAY MORE THAN EXCEPTIONAL.
And the facial expressions, I ADORE HOW THEY CHANGE INSTEAD OF BEING FROZEN.
everything was just so beautifully written and made
I'm sorry if I'm being repetitive but this was rlly awesome and it took me by surprise
You are absolutely amazing and if you have a team they are ALSO FREAKING AWESOME!! 💜🤍💜

Did you figure it out? I just experienced it and was so confused for a few seconds HAHAHAHA. Just open Mia's chat and keep tapping to send more messages after the first one.
This game is absolutely beautiful! From the art, to the writing of the characters, especially Yunhao and Kasen, really had me conflicted, and a little heartbroken (╥﹏╥). I hope to see more of this game, especially because im really hooked on what happens next ♡♡
ahh thank you thank you!!! i'm really glad you like the game <3 i hope you enjoy future updates, if you end up playing them!
This game made me so uncomfortable but like in the best way. Like when you start a book with heavy themes but you NEED to know what’s happens next. Yunhao is both so interesting and unsettling like ugh I need more of him. 10/10
YAYYY I'M SO HAPPY TO HEAR!!!! thank you so so much for playing <3 i really appreciate it!!!
(SPOILERS!! Read at your own risk!)

I really liked this VN. It made me so upset and angry that I couldn't find a "good" ending that would give me closure, and as much as I "hate" that, I feel that that's the point. The gravity of Yunhao's actions, the guilt that corrodes his mind- unless the MC finds out that he's the reason Kasen is gone, I don't think there's a way to save him. I want to say that I enjoyed the realism a lot; my hand was shaking over my mouse during the ending scene every time I rewatched it for a new ending.
Your story-writing skills are phenomenal, and I really appreciate your talent in making the antagonist(?) seem like such a lovable character until you realize the truth about their character too late to change your actions towards them. It accurately replicates the reality of being completely blind to what could be- and, in this case, IS -really happening in the story, and most visual novels give too much context on both sides to make uninfluenced choices based on what we already know, creating a bias.
In short, I really hope to play more of your works in the future. Much love!
AHH this comment makes me so happy :") i'm really really happy you got that experience from this game T__T i'm beyond honoured that you took the time to write such an extensive comment!! thank you so much for playing <3
there will be more days added to this game! if you do plan on playing them, i hope you enjoy them ^^
Yess!! I just noticed that this is a demo, and I’m so unbelievably excited. I’m glad my comment was received well too. I tend to rant a lot, but I just got so super immersed and couldn’t help it!!! <3 Can’t wait for the further expansion of this wondrous VN. (Also, I didn’t even realize that you also made Envelope my Heart!! I played that too, and I thought the art style was similar. You’re awesome sauce; keep up the good work! :D)
Hello! Am I the only one who's experiencing this bug? Instead of showing the text messages, It keep showing this instead.
hey! i'm so sorry to hear you're having this issue :(
have you touched any of the files and moved them around? that might be why it's happening!
if you haven't, please try downloading the game again!
(this seems to be mobile UI though ^^; the game isn't built to run on phone, which would be the main reason why it's not executing properly. i'm so sorry for the issue, but there's not much i can do about that right now T__T)
Hello! Excuse me, are you looking for translators? I can volunteer for a French translation.
hello!! please reach out on email (miaomarue@gmail.com) if you're interested in translating ^^ thank you!!
I did!
I'm not gay.
I swear. I'm not.
Probably.
nothing wrong with it 🫶🫶
SPOILERS!

Is there a way to save Kasen, because that scene between him and Yunhao made me LIVID. All he asked was for his sister to be with him, and he would be okay with everything else, but nooo, he couldn't even have that. If all Yunhao wanted was Kasen out of the way, he could have given him that one thing. Please tell me Yunhao isn't the only love interest.
there are two other endings you can get for day one!
ending one: walk with him --> reassure him --> side with him
ending two: walk with him --> ask him to elaborate --> let him leave
if you don't like yunhao you probably won't like these endings though ^^;
yunhao is technically the only "love interest" but you don't /have/ to romance him. if you dislike him so much this game is probably not for you ;; i'm so sorry for your experience!
I liked Yunhao until that scene came up. I felt like I was experiencing Kasen's feelings myself, and that was what disturbed me. I do like yandere games, but seeing the point of view of the victim before they die, was a bit unnerving. I don't know why that scene upset me so much. But, it's okay. You don't have to apologize.
it is intentionally uncomfortable and you're not supposed to fully understand yunhao's intentions behind everything yet! he's not exactly a good guy lol
i totally get it if that's too far for some players though ^^ thank you so much for checking out the game anyway <3
this was so so awesome!!!! i love the art sm, keep up the amazing work ^__^
thank you so much!!! i appreciate your support a lot <3
It's so good. I can't wait to see what happens next :)
YAYY i'm glad you enjoyed!! thank you for playing <3
oh they're beautiful! Downloading the game rn, so excited! I'll come back to my comment for opinion
started crying that was so beautiful omg. It portrays the guilt and shame of doing something wrong so well
sjdasnfkjaf this makes me so so happy to hear :") thank you so much for playing!!!
No, thank YOU for making this game because it captured my heart and soul
