Kana has a secret...
Okay so I'm sure that you're probably both excited and confused right now since this is going to be the first and last development update preview for this game. So I'll preface this dev update with a little background information.
Background:
This was originally going to be a mid-sized mini-game included in Kana Sensei [Day 4] and at the time I spent about 3-4 weeks building it up from scratch. But sadly I ran into a monumental amount of coding-related issues trying to shoehorn this game, in another game, lol... So I decided to make a backup of the code-base and shelved the idea for another time.
Fast-forward to today, I found myself with extra time to spare since there has basically been zero bug reports in the Supporter Release of Kana Sensei [Day 4]. Yay! So while I wait for the Public Release of Kana Sensei, I decided to revisit this idea and see if I could repurpose this minigame into a completely separate game and do it all within a month haha. So with that out of the way, I now present Mandatory Mentor!
Gameplay Preview:
Game Overview:
Mandatory Mentor thrusts you into the high-stakes role of tutoring Reina—a hopeless, spoiled, and bratty student who only has seven days to study for and ace the University of Tokyo entrance exam. To eliminate distractions, you and Reina are forcefully sent to a deserted tropical island to focus entirely on her studies.
Failure means the island becomes your permanent home, where coconuts and ramen are your only companions; success earns you a ticket back to civilization. Every choice shapes Reina’s academics, morale, and behavior as you navigate her tantrums, inspire breakthroughs, and uncover quirky surprises. Obtain meals, gifts, and spanking implements from the daily care package, use Prayer Tokens to bribe the RNG gods for guaranteed item drops or stat boosts, and unlock Playthrough Game Modifier Rewards to master the game across multiple runs. Will you mold Reina into a star scholar worthy of Tokyo University? Or will you fail and enjoy your new career as a Coconut Collector?
Developer Notes:
Okay then! So back to what I said at the beginning about this being the first and last development update. Well being that I've kinda been working on this in secret.... Technically the core gameplay logic and all coding-related work is completely done. All that I have left to do is visual and audio-related work which as of this post includes the spanking scenes, the 3 possible ending routes you can get, sound effects for the game, video editing, and securing a suitable voice actress for Reina.
Release Date:
I know this is going to be asked if I don't address it in this post, but currently my plan is to get the game released sometime in February so that I can go back to making one-off animations again and more importantly, get back to work on Kana Sensei [Day 5].
However, I decided that when Mandatory Mentor is completed by February (fingers crossed), I plan to give all VIP Supporters Early Access to the game. Especially since I won't be having a Beta Testing Period for this game due to the small game size and to be honest I've already tested it myself well over 100+ times haha.
Word of Thanks:
I know I'm piggybacking off this post for this which is becoming an essay at this point, so apologies for that! But I wanted to address all my VIP Supporters in particular...
You guys are the main reason I can continue working on spanking-related games and animations. Those of you in this tier make up 70% of my supporter base, and over 80% of you have been here for 12+ months, some even longer, and some since the beginning of time... (July 2021 to be exact haha.) But still, a fact that continues to amaze me each and every day.
To all of you who continue to support the work I do. I just want you to know that it truly means a lot to me and drives me to keep learning new techniques, and pushing my work to the next level.
To every single one of you...
Thank You!
