I'm trying to get all the endings for the completion bonus, but having issues properly unlocking Satch's good end. I've gotten his good end 3 times now, but it is still listed as ??????. I have unlocked everything else; Satch's good end is the one thing in the Extras (aside from the final completion bonus) that I am missing. Advice?
I was struggling with this as well but I finally figured it out. Apparently, you can get Satch's good ending regardless of whether you win or lose the tournament. For it to unlock in the scene picker, you have to win the tournament and get the good ending (I did this by maxing out my points and picking the choices that weren't bad, but weren't great either). After that, it gave me the completion bonus.
I've been trying to play this game, but I'm having trouble opening it. Any help? I have a Windows computer and I have downloaded the game on the win.zip download option. I've never had and rpa file before so any help would be awesome. Thanks!
Did you unzip the folder? All you need to do is download it and unzip it to any location besides your Program Files folder (you can't save data in that folder so your save files will erase themselves if you store your Asagao folder inside your Program Files folder.) I use WinRAR to unzip folders. Once unzipped, just open the folder and the game will be in there with a blue pixel flower icon. It's an .exe called Asagao Academy and you wont need any special program to run it!
I was wondering if you guys were thinking of making extra content for the game or perhaps some other routes? *cough* A Mai route would be awesome *cough* Other than that it's a really great game! I hope i get to see more of your guy's work in the future!
I went with Satch's route and got the best ending. I'll probably play the other routes later. Anyway, lovely game and so cute! I especially enjoyed Mai's role in the story, and the tough choices you have to make. Good job!
the first time i played this through i played PBG's route and got the worst ending. so much for my judgement! that being said, i've played through each and every route and (perhaps with a bIT of cheating) got the best endings. fantastic game, me and my friends are addicted, help us please
One of my favorite things about the soundtrack is the drum solo at the beginning of the theme song. I start waving my hands around, banging on imaginary drums that I don't actually know how to play. Halo: Combat Evolved may be my best memory as a gamer, but nothing gets me in the mood for my game like the main menu of Asagao Academy.
Anyone think that they should add some more to this game, don't get me wrong I love it but I would love to see some more routes. My personal favorite ideas are a Mai route or maybe a Markiplier route.
Once you receive your .zip file, you need to move it to another location from your downloads folder. Usually Documents or Program File is fine. When you've moved it, right-click the file and select <Extract All...>. Typically, this brings up a dialog that asks where you want the new folder to go, and the default is in the same location as your .zip file. When you've done this, simply open up your newly extracted folder, and run the Asagao Academy application.
If you're still having issues with your .zip file, try downloading WinRAR or 7Zip. These programs are designed to extract from various types of file, including .zip and .rar files. Just follow an online tutorial for extracting files with one of these programs, and you should be well on your way.
Don't keep your Asagao Academy folder inside your Program Files folder! If you save and come back, your save files will be wiped. Any other location should be fine.
I moved the .zip file into my Documents and when I try to do the <Extract All...> it says that the compressed file is empty?? In this case should I consider getting WinRAR or something to help out? I'm not sure if it would help with this or not...
Yes, I think you should consider a decompression program. Personally, I prefer 7Zip but WinRAR should work just as well. If you still run into this issue, something may be wrong with the download, maybe your internet is allocating space for the file, and then assuming it's filled?
I have an error related to the journal mechanic, where opening the journal appears to be non-permissible due to a potential missing file, or miscalculated range or value? I have the traceback and a save file related to it. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem any reliable way to contact you guys with this information. Although, glancing up at the downloads, I'm just noticing 0.9 came out? It would be helpful if I could get updates when these things happen. Maybe it was fixed already? Being under-informed kinda sucks. It'd also be nice if there was a regular changelog, informing players what's been updated.
I have a couple saves on text that has typos, and will continue to accumulate them as I see them. I'm sure you're already hard at work on updating these, but I figured it'd be nice to have direct references. Let me know if this is useful to you at all, and I can share my email to give you the saves.
On another note, this is amazing. I wasn't expecting this game until November, and it's out now. After playing for a few hours, everything has been deeply moving, and all the introductions (knowing the personalities they're based on) have such a sense of hilarity. I feel really excited and giddy playing this, like a Christmas morning that lasts for a week. This is about everything I could hope for: a compelling story, meaningful decision-making, beautiful sprites and background art, a good soundtrack...the list can go on. I'm very pleased with the result. Whatever it is that you're doing, whatever the motivation and inspiration that has caused you to create this, don't lose sight of that. As a Normal Boots fan for a few years, I can say that this game really delivers.
You should be able to just hit 'ignore' and continue the game for any errors that come up! Those errors are from Jared's sparkles, but we think they're an engine-related issue, not one we can fix.
Hello, I would like to ask if I can make fanfishion about Asagao Academy.
I would also like to know if my fanfishion could be a parallel story from Hanna's and in some parts of the story my character would interact with Hanna and watch what she does from and outsider's perspective.
I really love your work and wish the best of luck for your future projects
Wasn't expecting Jon's route to be as about as hard as Shane's. Was also wondering if you guys were ever thinking of maybe doing another kickstarter for some of our missed goals now that the game has come out and it's so well done.
I'm glad that you guys got this game out as I'm a huge fan of Normal Boots, more specifically PBG. I'm not going to download the game just yet, as I want to help support you, but currently lack any funds in my account. But I will buy this as soon as I do.
It's going to be really awkward for me trying to date the boys, haha.
So I subscribed to ProJared recently and noticed that he was playing this dating sim via Tumblr, so I watched the most recent part. Then I got to playing it myself, going for PBG on my first go. Got mad that it was so shockingly complex that I got the bad ending so many times with him, but I got the good ending and I'm DEFINITELY playing for the others sometime. I need to take a break though. I completed this is one day.
tl;dr - This game has and is going to make me love all the Normal Boots guys more.
i started downloading this game when i woke up yesterday, at 6 AM, and had a few problems. i finally had it working at about 1:30-2PM yesterday, and it was 10 mins away from finishing... and then my parents shut off the wi-fi... FML
What a beautiful and amazing game! I LOVED it. I played through Shane's route, just to see what everyone was saying, but I have to admit it wasn't as hard (to me at least) as others said it would be. I just answered the way I personally would answer and it all played out perfectly. AMAZING game. Makes me want to make one of my own someday! MatPat would have been awesome as the emcee, but it still was a fantastic game.
great game tbh. the gameplay is surprisingly long tho didn't expect that but it got real dark real soon and now I'm reluctant as to if I want to play it again :0000 but overall 8/10 :-))))
I'm having some issues trying to start up the game after I download it. I used the first download and the last one for Windows 10 and neither one of them are loading up. It keeps telling me that it can't execute the program. :/ And it asks if the exe is missing. I'd really like to try the game too :
The issue is with Windows 10 deleting your .exe file without warning. Look a few comments down from this, someone accidentally figured out a fix to this that worked for them. Might work for you too!
Hey thanks, I thought this was cool. God bless, i hope i gave a good amount. Now I'm off to date some men i watch everyday and they don't know that i even exist WOOO!
I've seen this a few times with Windows 10. Windows 10 is deleting the .exe file without giving you warning or an option. The problem is, I haven't seen a fix for this and I don't know why it's doing that on some computers while most people are able to download and play it just fine /:
What I did was try to rextract the files and then cancel while it was copying. The .exe file returned and my save files were still there. Totally happened by accident but that's how I got to play it again.
i had this problem to but i seemed to fix it what i did was went to this PC opened windows (C:) then i selected users them my name which is Teague then selected downloads then Asagao Academy-win then lib then windows-i686 then i right clicked asagao academy and hit run as administrated then yes and it opened hope this helped ( and so far i have to do this every time for it to work)
i keep getting the error that the .exe is missing and everyone says its because of your antivirus but i don't run an antivirus on my computer (windows defender is turned off, and no other ones are installed because of previous issues with game files being quarantined) so i don't know what to do?
This is a brilliant game. I love how each different route has it's moments with certain characters, which you won't understand unless you've seen their route. This happens often, especially with PBG and Shane.
The references to the real Normal Boots members are also really funny and cool.
Also Mai breaking the fourth wall a lot is honestly hilarious
I really love this game. But damn, SHANE'S ROUTE. Took me about 50-70 tries or so. It was not fun, But in the end, it was worth it. I loved every second of his ending.
Ah so there is hope for me yet :) I've completed all the routes on best ending apart from Shane who I only ever get bad ending with. I was starting to wonder if they never wrote a good/best ending for him just to mess with us :)
Nah there is a best ending for Shane. And as I said, it's my favorite ending. Such character development, especially since he seems to hate Hana in almost every other route. You're going to love it.
I've only gotten the best end and bad end with him, not even the good end and bad end. So confused by it to be honest. I have no idea how to get those two. If you want my help with the best end for any reason, just ask :) I'll be glad to help ahah
Same goes for you cx. Just send me a tweet on Twitter (@VeryMuchThomas) or send me a message on Google+ or so (thombrummelhuis@gmail.com) if you want help with Shane's route. I'm pretty sure I know what mistake you're making but I don't wanna spoil it on here.

I feel like im the only one who got Shane's rout first try.
Played pbg path it was funny, cute, and we kill smiley man but one problem NOT ENOUGH ADVENTUREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 1/10
Okay, I tried downloading this thing, but after I did, the "search for this app" was amazingly confusing.
I'm shocked at the quality of this game. Usually, I'm not into dating sims, but this one's pretty damn good.
All of the art's top-notch, the music and voice-acting's very well done, the presentation is spectacular.
So far, the story's well-written. There's no grammar issues, everything seems natural for a visual novel.
I'm not sure what else to say, amazing game.
i need help downloading, i get the zip file on my windows 10 idk what to do after that. please help

BAD ENDING?! I did PBG's thingy but what did I do wrong?
I did that once. Maybe I can help you out? I went back and just answered a few questions(2, I think) differently and I got the best ending.
I have a couple saves on text that has typos, and will continue to accumulate them as I see them. I'm sure you're already hard at work on updating these, but I figured it'd be nice to have direct references.

Also, in Shane's Best End, he says he's never heard her swear before. Which is false, if you look back at the joke in the cooking scene.
Is there a girl route for this?
i <3 this game XD been playing this alllllll night :D
i chose Jirard, hes soooo kind n his path was pretty easy
I'm playing this at 11pm with school tomorrow but it's not like I need rest or anything pssh
What's the change from version 0.7? Your updates section only lists 0.5.
I got an error on Jirard's route after the game convention (I think it was a dialogue from Jared or a transition.)
You should be able to just hit 'ignore' and continue the game for any errors that come up! Those errors are from Jared's sparkles, but we think they're an engine-related issue, not one we can fix.
I see. I did press ignore to continue the game, but I was still worried it would be something game breaking ^^;. thanks for answering!

hey its a great game the only problem is that i cant find my save file >:( im sad did i start it up wrong?
Hey thanks, I thought this was cool. God bless, i hope i gave a good amount. Now I'm off to date some men i watch everyday and they don't know that i even exist WOOO!
We should get a Mai route! I know many people want this including Jared and Heidi. I would really like to see this.
Definitely agree. A Mai route would be a huge boon to the game.
Says the .exe file is missing and I don't have any antivirus program installed. I already tried downloading all.zip and win.zip
What's your operating system?
Same thing here. I am using windows 10. It was running fine yesterday and today it says that it is a .py file
I've seen this a few times with Windows 10. Windows 10 is deleting the .exe file without giving you warning or an option. The problem is, I haven't seen a fix for this and I don't know why it's doing that on some computers while most people are able to download and play it just fine /:

Windows 8, but already got it working now, was a big dummy and just had to move everything over to a brand new folder.
i had this problem to but i seemed to fix it what i did was went to this PC opened windows (C:) then i selected users them my name which is Teague then selected downloads then Asagao Academy-win then lib then windows-i686 then i right clicked asagao academy and hit run as administrated then yes and it opened hope this helped ( and so far i have to do this every time for it to work)
Very interesting. Thanks so much for sharing, I'll be able to pass thing along to others who are having this issue!
Who's on the club ''I want to date Shane but I only got BAD ENDs''? It's so fucking hard! Jared is so easy, but Shane? DAMN!
i keep getting the error that the .exe is missing and everyone says its because of your antivirus but i don't run an antivirus on my computer (windows defender is turned off, and no other ones are installed because of previous issues with game files being quarantined) so i don't know what to do?
I'm having the exact same issue and im so frustrated
This game wont download for me.
All we need now is ProJirard and a cameo of the Grumps as scientists who made ProJirard
This is a brilliant game. I love how each different route has it's moments with certain characters, which you won't understand unless you've seen their route. This happens often, especially with PBG and Shane.

Thanks, I'll bear that in mind :) I'll try again a few times and might end up taking you up on that offer. I'll look forward to the ending now
You better. It's so worth it
I've been struggling so much with shane, i just want shane to love me, god i heard shane was the hardest route but damn!
OMG! I only got bad ends with Shane!!! Why is my favourite the hardest?! UGH! xD
Same goes for you cx. Just send me a tweet on Twitter (@VeryMuchThomas) or send me a message on Google+ or so (thombrummelhuis@gmail.com) if you want help with Shane's route. I'm pretty sure I know what mistake you're making but I don't wanna spoil it on here.
