Yes, I'll update the beta whenever I'm done "cleaning up" each guy's routes. Gonna release Shuu next (currently waiting for artist to finish final CG, which is taking a while since she's busy with her thesis right now), followed by Hikaru. The other remaining two's orders are still not decided.
Not sure I'll be able to get the game at the preorder [as I'm working on getting a job] but I loved the game. Also that you don't pick who you want to date after barely meeting them, like you do in so many others. Instead, you spend time and kind of get to know them.
When you pay $51.99 do you get the full game, the art book, AND the beta or just the full game and art book? If it's the latter how much for all three?
hello! I would like some clarifications. If i were to purchase the Seiyuu Danshi Toru Beta (48.99), does the payment includes the full game once it release? does it also include future playable routes in beta versions? or does it come separately?
Yes, and yes. No, you won't have to buy anything separately, just when the game is released or as each route is, you'll have to go to your purchases page and download it.
Currently there's only 1 way to upgrade purchase: contact itch.io (support@itch.io) and ask for a refund (say it's to upgrade to higher tier), and then make another purchase at 48.99.
Hi! Your game looks awesome, you guys are doing a great job on it. The trailer is especially cute and funny. I have a question though, will it still be $28.99 when it comes out in June? Or is that just the pre-order price??
Hey, how are you doing? I’ve a question, because I’m totally lost rn, do I have to pay more than 28.99 to play the full version when the game is released? (I already bought it). Thanks in advance, and take care!
Oh, this has such great potential! I haven't seen a BL or even a hetero VN game as complex as this. The art is fantastic and the 'mini-games' and events are so creative.
I'm definitely going to buy it as soon the full game is released! I hope that the game is released by June 2018 but don't neglect your health, developer-san!
Thank you so much for starting this wonderful project and on working really hard on it!
Beta means you get to play first before the game officially releases. Right now, only Toru (the red-haired guy) route is playable. When the other guys' routes are finished, the beta will be updated (so you will be able to play the other guys' routes as well).
When game official releases, you also get to download the "full version" as well.
So, I got the newest version of the beta, and I wanted to ask if it is possible to give Valentine chocolate to Shuu. On Twitter, you said that in the 1.05 version it possible to have a confession scene with Shuu, but I cant give Valentine chocolate to him or meet him anywhere else except his apartment on Monday and Wednesday. Is it supposed to be like this and will be able to spend time with him more often after Valentine's day? (Sorry I'm not sure if it's a bug or no, and if I should write an email about this or no).
I see others have asked about paying the remainder for beta since they preordered and I was wondering if you could let me know about this as well when itchio gets back to you? I am also interested in this. Thank you!
Itch.io has responded, and "topping up" previous purchase isn't something that is currently supported. Currently, the only way to do it would be to ask for a refund, and then re-purchase with a higher value. If you want to do this, send me an e-mail to meyaoigames@gmail.com with your itch.io account e-mail address (I'll relay to itch.io regarding the refund).
is it possible to do this after the official Release? Because I do not want to take Money from you, when you are still at work (it is not much I know, but every little bit helps)
I have a similar question to the other two asked. A year ago I purchased the preorder for $30. Is there any way I can pay $19.99 to have access to the Toru beta without paying all over again ($49.99)? When I clicked buy and input $19.99 it wouldn't let me and said I had to make a minimum purchase of $28.99 to buy the full game (that file is already unlocked for me) and $49.99 to have access to the Toru beta (that file was grayed out unless I entered $49.99).

Thanks so much for all your help! Just re-purchased at the Toru demo tier ($48.99) and I'm loving it. This will definitely tide me over until the full game is out
I played the demo halfway it crashed but it was a really good game! That being said i thought it was already out (Buy Now) and bought it, only to find out it's not out yet T_T . How do i get a refund (and buy it later on when it's out) ?
Sorry to ask a little confused can we buy it now? the button which said pre order is now buy? i just want to make sure before i make space on my laptop xD
Looking forward to this game! Played the demo way back and was hooked! Glad to see progress is still being made, and look forward to seeing it completed!
I don't mind if the game needs to be pushed back more if need be, so much hard work and creativity has gone into this game and I look forward to it everyday. Thank you to everyone who has backed this masterpiece!
Hello, if your purchase isn't too far back, I think itch.io support can help you. Just contact support@itch.io and ask for a refund. They might ask me for a confirmation later on, and I'll approve of it when they do.
I am so excited to play the full game, but it will only release in June, I need to raise money, 30 dollars is equivalent to 3 times my currency, more or less. T.T
Hello Meyaoi ~ I just saw the update in Kickstarter about Toru route beta to be sent soon but for backers only. Can I get the beta copy as well since I bought the game thru itch.io? :(
I'm not sure where the questionnaire is, exactly, but i love the game so far!! I'm really happy you used the renpy engine, too since it's easier to understand + all those lovely save slots~!!^^
As for suggested improvements.. It took me a while to realize the FAME stats and FB number of "fans/following" were basically the same thing, so i hope you could tell us about that at some point - like when we first get to open the computer.
There was a scene with Hikaru where our character walks in on him accidentally, and it's just a personal preference, but i really just wanted to leave because of how persistent my character was about the autograph. It just made me not want my own character to do well in the game. I understand it's part of his personality, though, so that's alright~!
I really loved the customization choices at the mall, and i'm very excited to see the rest of the stores! The love interests are actually very charming. You've done great on them! I hope there will be more dialog for the side characters just so it's more fun to look around and talk to others.
Lastly.. I'm still surprised that this is done in Indonesia?? If only i was in Jakarta, i would've loved to help out somehow! I hope the project goes really well for you all. Good luck~!!^^
I just wanted to ask why don't the dates work for me? After my first date with Toshiyuki I couldn't date him because of some error occurrances when I tried to pick clothes, I restarted the game multiple times and it didn't help. (Btw I love this game very much!)
It happened the same to me. In my second date with Toru when I picked the regular t-shirt, the game stopped because of an error. I closed it, reload my last save and chose the trousers first and the game didn't crash anymore.
Just a small teensy little question, Will the game be fully voiced or partially voiced? Like small groans here and there, moaning here and there and some dialogue spoken?
Hi hi, I've been following the development of this game since 2016 and I've been so exited about it, I've played all the demo's and i just keep wanting to play this game more and more. I absolutely LOVE it when there's a progress report I get so happy seeing the progress and the screen shots.
This is like my dream dating sim, and all of the features that you guys are adding look like so much fun to play, I am a liiiiiittle disappointed that the game was delayed, but that was only because I want to play it so badly lol, to be honest I'm not surprised tho and of course its better that it was delayed so that you guys could finish it properly and really refine it plus more game at the end!
I am a little sad that I can't play the beta lol but sadly i couldn't back the kickstarter and i didnt buy the artbook.....I wonder if I can buy it now and get to play the beta....? (I'm probably just being hopeful here).
Either way I'm looking very forward to playing in June.........(maybe earlier if we're lucky xDD).
Thank you guys so very much for developing this game and working so hard at making this amazing looking game, good luck, I really can't wait to play Seiyuu Danshi, and you're possible future projects.

Will you update the beta with more of the other guy's routes besides Toru, or is the next version gonna be the release version?
Asking cause I really like Shiba and Nakane.
Yes, I'll update the beta whenever I'm done "cleaning up" each guy's routes. Gonna release Shuu next (currently waiting for artist to finish final CG, which is taking a while since she's busy with her thesis right now), followed by Hikaru. The other remaining two's orders are still not decided.
Ah, so close yet so far. Well nothing to do but wish her good fortune I suppose.
She should be finished with the thesis by end of May though, so not much longer :)
Will there be merch, after the release(i want that toru mousepad so hard, but have not enough money for patreon, atm ;_;)
Yep. I'm gonna put up the remaining stock (leftover from pre-orders and such) up for sale after the game is released.
Not sure I'll be able to get the game at the preorder [as I'm working on getting a job] but I loved the game. Also that you don't pick who you want to date after barely meeting them, like you do in so many others. Instead, you spend time and kind of get to know them.
Hope to pick this up at some point. :D
When you pay $51.99 do you get the full game, the art book, AND the beta or just the full game and art book? If it's the latter how much for all three?
You get full game, art book, and beta.
Oh okay! Thank you! ^^ I'm sorry if I asked a question that was answered a million times over. I didn't really check out all the comments.
You're their customer, so I think that it's only polite for them to be appreciative of your interest. ^^
True enough, but I always think I'm annoying when I ask questions. It's just a thing with me.
You're not being annoying at all ^^
Hehe, you seem like a sweetie~
hello! I would like some clarifications. If i were to purchase the Seiyuu Danshi Toru Beta (48.99), does the payment includes the full game once it release? does it also include future playable routes in beta versions? or does it come separately?
Yes, and yes. No, you won't have to buy anything separately, just when the game is released or as each route is, you'll have to go to your purchases page and download it.
If I bought the preorder one, do I still need to purchase the game again?
Btw, is the full game ready now?
By preordering, you bought the game early, so you won't have to purchase it again. However, the game isn't finished yet and currently is in beta.
I'm curious, will we be able to buy the OP song once the game releases?
Since it's only 1 song, probably will just give it out as artbook bonus :)
Ffffffff, I love you.
Yeah, main game only.
Hello! How can I upgrade to be able to play the beta if I have already bought the game at 28.99$ ? I don't want to pay the whole 48.99$
Currently there's only 1 way to upgrade purchase: contact itch.io (support@itch.io) and ask for a refund (say it's to upgrade to higher tier), and then make another purchase at 48.99.
Hi! Your game looks awesome, you guys are doing a great job on it. The trailer is especially cute and funny. I have a question though, will it still be $28.99 when it comes out in June? Or is that just the pre-order price??
It is pre-order price. Final price will be increased a bit, though it is still not yet decided.
Aw, well, I hope it doesn't end up too much higher, I don't know if I could afford it if it was.
Hey, how are you doing? I’ve a question, because I’m totally lost rn, do I have to pay more than 28.99 to play the full version when the game is released? (I already bought it). Thanks in advance, and take care!
You can pay 28.99 to pay the final game. The 48.99 is only a price for those who want to play the beta version.
What are the chances of the official release date being postponed again?
Oh, this has such great potential! I haven't seen a BL or even a hetero VN game as complex as this. The art is fantastic and the 'mini-games' and events are so creative.
I'm definitely going to buy it as soon the full game is released! I hope that the game is released by June 2018 but don't neglect your health, developer-san!
Thank you so much for starting this wonderful project and on working really hard on it!
Hello, what's exactly tour beta ??(Sorry, I'm not a native english sepaker)
If game will be offically relased, tour beta edition will still be worthful??
Beta means you get to play first before the game officially releases. Right now, only Toru (the red-haired guy) route is playable. When the other guys' routes are finished, the beta will be updated (so you will be able to play the other guys' routes as well).
When game official releases, you also get to download the "full version" as well.
It's better to ask itch.io directly. E-mail support@itch.io to contact itch.io directly.
So, I got the newest version of the beta, and I wanted to ask if it is possible to give Valentine chocolate to Shuu. On Twitter, you said that in the 1.05 version it possible to have a confession scene with Shuu, but I cant give Valentine chocolate to him or meet him anywhere else except his apartment on Monday and Wednesday. Is it supposed to be like this and will be able to spend time with him more often after Valentine's day? (Sorry I'm not sure if it's a bug or no, and if I should write an email about this or no).
Confession scene is not Valentine's day. All his special scenes (valentine, white day, etc) are not finished yet. .
ok. Thank you
I managed to give Chocolate to Shuu on Valentines. He's just not in his mansion, he's outside ^_^
I see others have asked about paying the remainder for beta since they preordered and I was wondering if you could let me know about this as well when itchio gets back to you? I am also interested in this. Thank you!

please make an android version of this game😭 make an android version even if its a demo only😭
It won't be possible. I asked them a year ago and this was the response:
"Nope. The game is too complex to be ported to mobile.
I think it would be filled with bugs."
I have a similar question to the other two asked. A year ago I purchased the preorder for $30. Is there any way I can pay $19.99 to have access to the Toru beta without paying all over again ($49.99)?

Have asked itch.io about the ways to do it. Will let you know again once I've received an answer.
Okay, thank you!

Hello! I pre-ordered the game a month ago and I am interested in getting the beta. If I buy the game again, can I hope for getting the beta?
Have asked itch.io about the ways to do it. Will let you know again once I've received an answer.
i pre-ordered awhile ago but i'm interested in getting the beta. is there any way to just pay an additional $25?
Have asked itch.io about the ways to do it. Will let you know again once I've received an answer.
i absolutely love the demo when is the full game being released (=^x^=)
I played the demo halfway it crashed but it was a really good game! That being said i thought it was already out (Buy Now) and bought it, only to find out it's not out yet T_T . How do i get a refund (and buy it later on when it's out) ?
Refund is handled by itch.io. Please contact support@itch.io for that.
I've actually decided to wait ^_^ but is there a way to top up to get toru beta?
Sorry to ask a little confused can we buy it now? the button which said pre order is now buy? i just want to make sure before i make space on my laptop xD
No, it is still pre-order. Not sure why the button changes words.
okay thanks ^^
Looking forward to this game! Played the demo way back and was hooked! Glad to see progress is still being made, and look forward to seeing it completed!
I don't mind if the game needs to be pushed back more if need be, so much hard work and creativity has gone into this game and I look forward to it everyday. Thank you to everyone who has backed this masterpiece!
Thanks, it's really kind of you <3
I bought the game! I wish it comes out by June, on that month is my birthday~
when the game will be released?
June 2018 (estimated date).
hello, I was hoping I could find a way for me to get a refund on my pre-order! I'm so sorry! Do I need to find an email to ask for it back?.
Hello, if your purchase isn't too far back, I think itch.io support can help you. Just contact support@itch.io and ask for a refund. They might ask me for a confirmation later on, and I'll approve of it when they do.
okay thank you very much!
Please wait until support gets back to you. It shouldn`t take that long.
Refund is handled by itch.io support. Please send another e-mail to the support mail. I can't do anything here.
Sorry, If I buy on another PC, can I change PC games? Can I play it on another PC?
Yes, you can download the game multiple times (no download limit).
I am so excited to play the full game, but it will only release in June, I need to raise money, 30 dollars is equivalent to 3 times my currency, more or less. T.T
Hello Meyaoi ~ I just saw the update in Kickstarter about Toru route beta to be sent soon but for backers only. Can I get the beta copy as well since I bought the game thru itch.io? :(
If you buy the digital copy + artbook pack, you can get the beta copy.
thanks for your reply! I'll just wait for the digital copy through my itch.io account once it gets released in the next few months. :)
I'm not sure where the questionnaire is, exactly, but i love the game so far!! I'm really happy you used the renpy engine, too since it's easier to understand + all those lovely save slots~!!^^

Just wanted to say that i LOVED the demo! Can't wait for this!
I just wanted to ask why don't the dates work for me? After my first date with Toshiyuki I couldn't date him because of some error occurrances when I tried to pick clothes, I restarted the game multiple times and it didn't help. (Btw I love this game very much!)

I chose the trousers (as you did) and it worked, so thank you very much! :D
I'm Brazilian and I loved the game.
But will you have Portuguese?
Just wondering when the full release will be...>w<
Just a small teensy little question, Will the game be fully voiced or partially voiced? Like small groans here and there, moaning here and there and some dialogue spoken?
Partially voiced. The game text is huge (300.000 words++) and it will be very costly and time consuming to fully voice it.
