ACADEMY34
A downloadable Erotic Visual Novel for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
ACADEMY34 is a heavily story-driven erotic visual novel, the game, which brings whole new meaning to the word "wholesome".
While the market of similarly explicit games is oversaturated with stories, where the main protagonist is a rather unlikable individual, we took a vastly different approach, carefully crafting the world in which you will be able to get invested into the story and characters, help them overcome their personal problems, craft a healthy relationship built on understanding and trust, and then get invited into their bed, instead of forcing your way in.
If you think that sounds a bit too vanilla for your liking, you might be pleasantly surprised once you play it.
In ACADEMY34 you are taking on a role of a freshman cadet, who had just enrolled into the prestigious Sentinel Academy, a place, where young people train to become Agents, dedicating their lives to protecting the world from the terror and, basically, just bad things in general. In reality, no matter how pompous this place is trying to appear, it is still a yet another rich school, filled with hundreds of young adults trying to figure out their place in life. The moment you made your first step on the grounds of this Academy, you realized that maybe you are not ready to become an agent just yet. The idea of dedicating your life sounded so heroic, but now there's a strange lingering thought inside your mind — You want to experience that absurd and chaotic student life. You really do. Though, not like it depends on your choice, as misadventures have already begun!
- Experience the absolute disarray of being a student, find new friends and partners, get intimate and accidentally discover a reason why that one cute girl in particular had a leash, but no pets in sight.
- Get involved into drama, become a personal therapist for an unhinged hacker girl, make her fall in love with you and commit a federal crime in the name of love.
- Discover so many new ways to express affection, including but not limited to: Performing a summoning ritual on the parking lot, opening up a gate to countless alternative realities, solving global warming crisis and many more!
In fact, yes! We are also a comics publisher! A separate team of artists are working in collaboration with us to create an amazing story-driven comics, set in the universe of ACADEMY34. You can check all our works on our Creator Page!
We have a Patreon page where we share all the news about the development of the game and post our future plans. Also we have a Twitter page, where we post memes, spoilers and free comics pages, so make sure you follow us there for spicy content that we cannot share on Patreon. We have an Official Site too where you can download the latest Public and Patron releases. And of course since we are zoomers — we even have a Tik Tok account with fast-paced brain-rotting short videos.
ACADEMY34 is totally free, but just as with other similar projects ACADEMY34 features early access to new updates for Patrons, but eventually, usually in around a month after initial release, all of those updates get a public release. You don't have to pay a dime to enjoy our game, but if you want to support us, it would help immensely!
All patron releases are available on our site!

Amazing game for real, it got me obsessed and emotionally uncontrollable, I cannot wait for the latest version, can't wait to spend my Christmas money to support this game but I got a quick question, do I pay everytime there's a new early access version or no?
Any chance to see to quest with Sonya expanded or revisited? Same thing for Seraphine. Their art stile is quite different from other more recent quests/routes. It would be nice to bring them to the same quality of everything else.
They are pending for the rework, which will completely redo their respective stories, as well as update all of the artwork and more. We know how bleak they are in comparison to newer stories, so we'll make sure to get them to our newly set standards as soon as possible!
sup, just created a account for this, so how do i do the mothra or mysterious book route? someone said on tuesday afternoon but it still says "i shouldn't bother her"
anyways it's a great game, had some laughs on it.
Oh, you gotta talk with Freja (Brigitte) and Reina (Sombra) so they point you to he right direction and then you will able to talk with Mothra.
Thanks.
nvm lol, after sometime the book decided to appear and there i can do the route
*finger crossed* me poor me wait 6 more days for free release XD, been saving this game up a lot now, uhh perhaps more than 6 updates I've saved up so yeah, sorry for being petty but I don't have money(let's say strict parents)
Anyways nice game! Nice storyline! Can't wait for the free release, hope y'all doing good and this is not much but I wish y'all the best of luck!
(Quick question, does updating the game apk directly work? Like does the save get ruin? I don't really mind if I have to play from the beginning again tho)
Hi! Hope you'll like the latest updates!
On the save part — depends on what version you are currently on. If it's before the name change - your saves will be corrupted with a 80% chance. If it's after the name changes - should be okay. Name change happend on Zahera Update (v0.16.3.2)
Got it, thank you
I keep crashing whenever I click on the workshop for the brigette route how do I fix this?
Can you share the screenshot of your crash log? It will help us to pinpoint the issue much faster.
how should I send it? should I just post it here?
Yeah, posting here works.
Thanks, sent this to our programmer.

Been following this game for a few months now and I thought I'd finally comment. This game is exceptional. Not only do you follow TOTALLY NOT Overwatch characters, but you can also interact with original characters as well. Andre is probably my favorite, possibly because I relate to her somewhat. But anyways, keep up the great work! Can't wait to see what's next
Thank you so much! We are SO glad that you enjoyed both our original, and our "definitely very original" characters, because we poured so much heart and effort into making them as lovable as they could be!
Andre is the best girl, and more so, she will get a new update early next year!
That's great to hear! Looking forward to seeing Luca in action as well. Keep it up guys!
What happened to the character names (and parts of their appearances)? Did you get, like, copyrighted or something?
Since Blizzard is known to send "Cease & Desist" we decided to not take any chances due to sheer amount of people working on Academy34 and depending on it as their main source of income.
So changing the names and updating the designes turned out to be the easiest solution. And through trial and error (Reina's redesign) we understood how exactly we should do it and how much can we change.
So all the "inspired by OW" characters will get only minor changes to make them look more original. So, for example, this is how Freja (Brigitte) will look in her next update:
How do I call Aurelie after class?
After Chris is expelled
It depends...
If you are playing the latest Public Release (v0.18.1.3) then that's the end of the update and the continuation is available for our $2 Patrons on our site (v0.18.2.2).
And if you are already playing the latest version, then it could be a bug and we will take a look into it!
I won't lie, I recently only returned because I discovered the blaze route existed, and I gotta say, Blaze is probably my favorite character so far. Just super fun and relatable. I have no idea what future plans are, but I'd love to see more of this character.
Honestly, she was enough to get me to go to yall's patreon.
Minus my obvious bias for Blaze, amazingly crafted game, it's very rare to see such dedicated developers and it's always so awesome to see!
First time commenter
Two things
1: your game is amazing and i absolutely love it and i can't wait for more
2: i beg of you, add routes for Priscilla and Luca both of them are from Aurelia's route, i get it if you don't put in Luca but Priscilla is a given but either way they're both hot and i would love to see them have routes
yeah, would love to see A route for priscilla
Hi! I'm having a trouble (and I apologize for my ignorance) but I'm in the part of widow route when christian is expelled and she call you to hangout after class I think. But I can't communicate or find her. It's a bug or I just do all the thing her route have for the moment?
It depends on which version are you playing on. If you are playing the latest public release (v0.18.1.3), then that's where the update ends. In two weeks the continuation of this route will be available for free, though you get it now if you want for $5 pledge on Patreon.
oh. I'll buy the next release. Thank you so much.
I love Luca! Will he have his own route in the future? Also, I don't know if he is the one who appears in the last comic but with a different design.
Glad to hear you liked him! He will most definitely get his own route, and no, the character you've seen in the latest comic is actually a girl, and it's a different person ahah
Where is the 3 jammer?
If it's in library then where is ?
The first is in the bushes in the parking lot. The second is on the wall in the swimming pool and the last is in the classroom under the table
Arigato!
Will we see anymore of blaze in the future?
She's on the roadmap! Her next update coming early next year.
Dankeshon fur die antwort
🧡 VELMA Yun Skin — $20 Release 🧡
Sometimes less skin is sexier, and in case of Yun — yeah, she's really rocking tight sweaters!
P.S. This is a tasty treat for all the Yun fans, while you wait for her first major update in a long time. And guess what? It's coming NEXT MONTH!
This update includes Part 3 and 4 of Aurelie's story!

I keep forgetting how much I'm into femboys and then Luca reminded me, congrats to everyone working on this game for making it so amazing
Thank you! And we're glad Luca had the intended effect ahah
Femboy?? Where? I must find them
How to do the assignment?
Go to library and and study in room then go talk to professor after class how to this it's going nowhere
After you take the book from the library, just use the laptop in MC's room to do the assignment. Some assignments require to do them multiple times to progress.
Now the most important question. Do we get to smash Luca?
Yes :}
Luca will get his own storyline next year.

I haven't played this game in a looong while, and came back to it to check out the updates, seeing the character redesigns and whatnot intrigued me. However it seems like my game still just has all the characters as they were with their og names, sprites, and a full gallery. I'm pretty sure it's up-to-date, and I tried reinstalling it, starting a new save, so on so forth, but can't seem to get the new-ish content to show. Any ideas?
Everyone other than Brigitte and Morrison should have new names. And only Reina (prev. Sombra) has the redesign right now. What version are you on exactly?
I sorted out the issue, I needed to completely uninstall and reinstall, not just hit the "reinstall" button provided in the itch launcher. Got it all working properly now
Hey so, I played this game when their names were the game's character names ... for example, Mei isn't Mei anymore, and so forth. What happened? It's just a curiosity thing
Probably just so the game doesn't get taken down by the actual overwatch team. We all know who the characters are meant to be and thats all that matters
Anybody else ever think that Overwatch, like League of Legends, might actually make for a better TV series than a video game? Arcane was surprisingly good, and I always thought it would blow me away. I'd honestly be over the moon if they made an Overwatch Netflix series or something like that.
Anyways, this game looks great, I'll try it later, but for now, I'm in transit, DL'ing anything is a bitch and a half ATM, not even gonna bother with that uphill slog. Looking forward to it though.
Uh, one question though: Nothing... bad... will happen to any of their pets (actual animals FYI) right? I still can't believe Tracer's cat lost an arm because Widow sneezed whilst sniping in the comics. I mean, yeah, Widow got her cat a cyber arm, but still...
Blizzard always were quite good when it comes to delivering amazing cinematic trailers, similar to great music videos Riot Games put out. It's only fair to draw a comparison between them and have an interest in seeing characters from their universe in different medium, such as animated TV show or a movie. I'd say we are more or less on board with an idea, but considering how poorly Blizzard treater lore-part of their game, it's hard to actually say that I'd personally be hyped to see animated series based on their games. Still, would be fucking cool
Also, don't worry about animals in our game! As of right now, there are none, because we kinda never thought of adding any, but if we ever do, we won't allow any harm to come their way!
Yeah, your right, Blizzard DOES have an issue with keeping its own lore straight. (Honestly, they've outdone CAPCOM by this point!)
And thanks, I always hate it when teh petz get in trouble because their peoples is teh heroes. (or villains, sorry Lou & Bud!) >~<;
LOL! Remember that "Dial M for Monkey" show-within-a-show from Dexter's Laboratory? Imagine Winston watching that! XD
Or better yet, imagine this crossover event:
Winston & Jynx watching Malibu's Most Wanted, and Jynx laughing her ass off as Winston goes "King Kong ain't got nothin' on me!"
And then Vi comes in and wrestles Winston using Zangief's moves because Jynx is out past her curfew and her parole officer called.
Okay, I'm totes sending my sister this, she'll probably make a manga out of it for her deviant art account! XD
Hi there!
I played this game quite a while back, I think actually about a year or so ago. It's great to see how far you guys have come since!!
A bit mixed regarding the redesigns and renames (although I absolutely understand the rationale and the factors that played a part in them), but the art still looks absolutely fantastic! I wonder if there'll ever be a patch or an option to somehow go back to the Overwatch variants though, as it would be a shame to have those assets go to waste haha.
After I last played the game, I remember leaving a comment, and you guys responding- saying that it would be best to wait a wee bit longer before I replay the game, to give the updates some time and to play a better version once I do give it a try.
I suppose that what I'm wondering is- is now a good time? I remember Tracer and Mercy having reworks in the making, and Widowmaker's route being in its very early beginning, as well as some plans to implement Kiriko (pardon me for using their Overwatch names, I don't yet know the new names lol).
So yeah, that's my question basically. Last time I played was when the Sombra-D.Va storyline was roughly at its halfway point. How long do you reckon before it might be worth it to dive back into the game and expect a whole new experience?
Keep up the great work and I am excited to see where this game goes moving forward!
Right now Reina (Sombra) and Yun (Mei) are finished, Aurelie's (Widow) route is not finished but had a satisfying conclusion to her ark, so that's worth a play too.
Next month Freja (Brigitte) will be getting an Epilogue to her route, although the main story line is technically also done. And Ava (DVa) will be getting a Finale at the beginning of next year!
Right now we are working on an Overhaul Update, which we will push to release next year. It will include LOTS of changes, and since it's so huge that's why it requires so much time.
So if you are a free player — wait for Aurelie's (Widow) Part 4 to go public and play the game, which should happen in around 2 weeks.
Right now it's probably the best time to play to truly appreciate the Overhaul Update once it goes live.
In regard to patch that will revert the changes to their design, sadly we can't do that due to potential legal issues. That being said, Reina's redesign was the only one that you can call somewhat drastic, with the rest of the cast receiving only minor adjustments. On top of that, we will revert some of the changes to Reina's design to bring her closer to the look our players are familiar with.
Right, I see. Thank you for the response!! I'll follow the development.
Again, keep up the wonderful work, and I'm looking forward to giving this game another try! I cannot express how great I remember it being.
Hi huge fan of your game. I haven't played this game in a while I'm just wondering why I have lost a lot of my gallery and why most of the characters names have changed.
Due to legal reasons we decided to change the names and designes of the characters so they'd look more original and weren't a straight up property of Blizzard. They still resemble the characters, just have other names.
And this name change is the reason why the gallery got wiped — Ren'py really didn't like what we did and since it's very dependant on the name it wipes the gallery if using older save. If you are playing on PC you can use the Konami code in the main menu (use your keyboard to type 🢁 🢁 🢃 🢃 🢀 🢂 🢀 🢂 🅱️ 🅰️ and you will unlock the full gallery).
Also with the overhaul update we will add a function to change the names to whatever you want!
Hey there! Just downloaded the game today for the first time on Android.
I can get thru to where Morrison tells you the girls and guys are splitting up, right in the beginning. When the dialog goes away, I am left looking at the empty parking lot not sure what to do. I tried opening the world icon, then it crashed when i closed that menu. After replaying to that point, i opened the main menu instead, but the game crashed when pressing back to close the main menu. I had managed to save tho, so I tried to load the file, was back at the empty parking lot. I pressed the back button from the parking lot this time-- still crashed. It's the same error code each time:
First time we're seeing this error, so we'll need some time to figure out if how to fix it. Thanks for letting us know — our Programmer will take a look at it.
The game crashes everytime I use the x-ray on Andrea in the library. I'm on PC using v0.17.1.3. Log:

Hi! Thanks for the bug report. Can you by any chance share your save file right before the moment the error appears? In this case before you are clicking x-ray button to use it on Andre.
Saves are stored here:
[Academy34 Folder]\game\saves\
This will really help us fix this faster. Thanks in advance!
I can only said... WHAT AN AMAZING AND LOVELY PIECE OF GAME YOU HAVE MADE! I know is still so much to do but so far, the writing, the storytelling, the world building... Man, even the Protagonist feels like a somebody instead of the normal "You are the Protagonist", very much like it. Yun's Route and Ava's has been my favorites, but I also love all interactions with Andre, such a lovely character. I will support this project in any ways I can, because is worthy.
Oh my god, thank you for your review!
We plan to add new content to Yun this and next month, and also a little something for Andre, hope you will like it!
How come only some of the characters names needed changing?
All of them will be changed, we just didn't decide on some at the moment the update was released, so characters like Brigitte and Morrison still use their original names. It will be fixed in upcoming patches, along with an option to manually change the names to your liking we are planning to add into settings menu.

Is it me or did the names change- it's been a while
Yep, to stay out of trouble with Blizzard. Soon we will add an option to change names to whatever you like right in the game.
I just cant get the x-ray to work i click on a girl and it shows a close up but i cant do anything after that
What do you mean? You are getting stuck in the x-ray interface and can't close it?
no i can go back and forth (main view and close up with x-ray enabled) but the x-ray box dose not render the second image if you get what i mean
Can you make a screenshot?
You mean when you use x-ray the close up is not a naked version? Are you using a LVL2 x-ray?
No level 0 is that the problem? is there a quest im somehow missing to get a higher level?
Yep, there are levels to x-ray.
Level 0 is a a joke one, showing only feet
Level 1 shows them without clothes but in their underwear
Level 2 shows full naked
You need to talk to Reina cause she gives you x-ray by completing her tasks of finding Jammers.
I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be a chained side quest and when you get LVL0 x-ray you are supposed to use it to find Jammer in the parking lot and bring it to Reina.
Then she will ask you to find the second Jammer, it will be in the Pool area, and the Third one will be in the Classroom.
Hope this helps!
Anyway to undo the full gallery unlock? Kinda regretting having everything now
Yeah, to clean the gallery on pc — delete the persistent file in:
C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\ACADEMY34-v0.2.3\
And delete persistent in:
[Academy34 Folder]\game\saves\
Thank you!
CLYDE??! 💀💀💀💀😭
Honestly love everything about this game, amazing story and worldbuilding. 10/10 characters and even the redesign for Sombra was great imo, im rofl at clyde though thats the funniest possible name you couldve gave him!🤣
We got a lot of comments on Tiktok regarding his name. People really didn't like McCree... And we didn't like Cassidy. So we decided to find some middle ground and Clyde McCarty sounded like a good choice :D
Why Reina is BALD :T
Haha, it's our bad, we fucked up the layering on one of the pictures and the hair doesn't show up, it's fixed in the Aurelie Closed Beta and soon will be available to the public.
Honestly, I was like, what?? But then was like... You know, it actually looks natural on her... (can't recall in OW she's also bald, but I gladly accept if is corrected later on, to have her on the gallery)
so, i do have one issue, mightve been resolved here before but i havent seen it (i mightve just glazed over it), so i saved then quit and closed my laptop, and had maybe 8 pages of the gallery (uncompleted but with most of reina’s market) and when i loaded the save, all of it was gone except for the andre, sonya, and ava scenes, can i get them again or am i just fucked
Oh, it's our fuck up... Because of the name change the gallery started behaving weird and randomly got wiped most of the time. On a Laptop you can use the Konami code in the main menu to unlock it.
(🢁 🢁 🢃 🢃 🢀 🢂 🢀 🢂 🅱️ 🅰️) — Type this on your keyboard and all possible scenes/pictures will appear in the gallery.
ohhhhhhhh! that makes sense, im sorry to hear about that :( thanks for the heads up!
I accidently pressed on start a new game and was trying to get to my save file but I ended up deleting it- Is there anyway I can get that back? I've already been so far in without getting to the new content.
Damn, if you deleted it via game and it doesn't show up anymore then it's probably gone...
After downloading the new update almost everything in my gallery got deleted, is there any way to recover it?
On PC you can use Konami code - it will fully unlock the gallery and bring back everything that was deleted due to the bug connected to name change.
On the phone — please wait for the next public release, it will have a special button that unlocks the gallery.
P.S. Type konami code with your keyboard in the main menu of the game (🢁 🢁 🢃 🢃 🢀 🢂 🢀 🢂 🅱️ 🅰️)
