Suho Love Letter KS Reward

Hello, all. If you are unfamiliar, then you may or may not know that XOXO Academy had a failed Kickstarter a while back. I am releasing the rewards because... well, why not!

Below the cut is the Suho Letter Reward.

Next up: Suho / Tao / Xiumin Photocards

~ Suho Letter ~

When you first started ignoring my texts and emails about the meetings, at first I wasn’t worried. I thought, you were just slacking again. And I was exasperated, just a little. You’ll have to excuse me... after all, Xiumin told me that the files I asked you to organize are still sitting in a random pile in your windowsill.

I know, I know. I should’ve come by myself. I was so busy that I asked him to drop by for me, but that might’ve been a... less than savory thing to do. Sorry if that’s another factor in why you’re ignoring me.

Xiumin’s also kindly let me know that you’ve been in your pajamas watching cartoon movies and eating sweet buns dipped in pint after pint of ice cream. I’ve never heard of such a thing but… if this rumor is true, then it seems that you haven’t changed clothes in a week either. Apparently your duties are not the only things you’ve been slacking in…

Haha... is that overstepping my bounds to say? If so, I’m sorry. I admit part of it is because I’m so comfortable with you, but I guess I’m also frustrated with you. 

Ever since we began dating, I expected that when something was going on in your life, you’d come to me first and yet... the news came to me secondhand. As I cited, I know I’ve been busy, but you won’t answer my calls or my texts and that hurts me. I mean… I know you’re hurt but… not being the man you can rely on... that frustrated me to. So what exactly is going on?

Listen— even though I did send this email to get those files done (as soon as possible, as aforementioned) I also wanted to make sure that you’re doing alright. In addition to not hearing your voice, I’ve noticed that I haven’t seen you around either— you haven’t even shown up to the culinary club for four days even though we just started the coffee unit you’ve been gushing.

Didn’t you say tell me that it was your favorite two weeks ago?

In any case, whatever happens, my dearest secretary, let me know if you need this time to slack off with the school’s approval. I know, I know… I said I wouldn’t pull strings if you finally got your position but… I’m your boyfriend and I’m worried about you. It’s not like you to be sad. If I weren’t so swamped with the OaDC coursework (you’re not missing out, trust me) I’d definitely be with you— though as Dr. Lee says, I’m pretty bad at bedside manner, so I might just make it worse… Haha…

Anyway, you know the number. If it’s a problem with me and you, then even then we’ll need to talk anyway so… Please call me. I have three labs due by tomorrow at five but if you don’t call me by tonight, I’m coming for you, labs or not.

I mean, it’s true that I’ll probably finish my labs first and you still need the OaD notes but… would the thought still count?

Ha.

I’m sorry.

I love you and I miss you.

Whatever you’re thinking, please don’t cry. It’ll be okay.

~ Sehun Letter ~

Ah, I can't believe it.

We're dating now.

I still feel like I’m dreaming, haha… It’s a little embarrassing for me, but I can’t believe I’m at a stage where it’s difficult to write “dating” without my face getting hot… Everything about this is embarrassing, so I’ll tell you this--when I told Luhan, he said that it’s a good thing that you weren’t there to see me telling him that I was going out with someone.

He said that I had the weirdest expression on my face.

I wouldn’t say it’s impossible for me, but I get excited at the thought of admitting deeper things to you. Next time you see him, wear your uniform shurt as open as you can because it’ll make Sehun’s heart stop~ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.

AH! I didn’t write that— please tell me you can’t read what I’ve crossed out anymore. This is the worst...

The upperclassmen are bullying me because I won’t tell them what we’re going to do on our date. They’re just jealous because none of them have a cute sweethearts like I do— except for Suho, who keeps excitedly asking me if I want to double date one day. (I don’t, Class President! Stop asking!)

…I can’t take them anymore. Is it stupid to say that I’d rather be with you than deal with these guys? You’ll have to erase them from my mind and take their place, okay? None of them are worth keeping around. Because they’re all worthless and don’t know how to mind their business or return anything to the library on time.

Hahaha…. sorry, a certain someone was reading over my shoulder so I had to write something mean for him to read.

Are you excited for today? It’s going to be our first out-of-school date. Maybe I’ll give you this letter after we eat lunch.

I wonder if it’ll make you happy.

I hope you’ll smile, or else I’ll make weird faces at you like Suho would.

Your-boyfriend-who-is-definitely-not-making-a-weird-face-no-matter-what,

Sehun

These are the Kai/ Kyungsoo photocard rewards from the failed Kickstarter! They’re styled to be like selfies.

...Mostly. Kai is sleeping, so in reality, Chanyeol probably took this picture while trying his best not to laugh him awake.

Feel free to use them!

~~ Chanyeol Letter ~~

What to write about, what to write about.

I should start with the fact that I didn't want to do this. (Sorry.) But because you're convinced this is cute I'm willing to try it... Whatever. Uh, I’m in class right now... You already know that because we walked here together and on top of that you're sitting like... two rows behind me. Sometimes I worry that all of our time scheduled in the same classes is going to make you sick of me but you seem to be doing okay. Thanks for putting up with me so much even though I'm kind of oblivious to... well, just about everything. Man, I know this is supposed to but cute but so far I'm only talking like usual… Sorry. I don’t really know how to be a boyfriend. I thought it would be more simple than this: if I like you, I like you, and I don’t get why is the stuff like this makes you supposed to like me more... It’s hard enough that Kris tells me that I don’t hold your hand and kiss you enough in the hallway, but even though I like you a lot you, I don’t want you to feel like I do those things just to prove a point or whatever.

You feel like you’re my girlfriend, right? Uhm. Look. I know I’m not romantic, and I’m bad at taking cues, and sometimes (okay, all the time) I say the wrong thing at the wrong time. I never know when to comfort you, and sometimes I hurt your feelings because I don’t notice that you don’t like the jokes I make if they’re harsh. I know that sometimes I’m too playful during when you need me to be serious, and I ruin the mood when we have good moments, and I’m always being the stupidest when you need me. I’m late for our dates, and I forget to call you after I promise to… so how are you still dating me, haha? I don’t mean to laugh… I just really find it surprising. Of course, I don’t want to break up, but I wonder how you aren’t sick of me. I think about the time we spent a date in the hospital because you had an allergic reaction to the chocolate I gave you and I physically cringe. Especially when I compare it to all the great things you’ve done for me— the signed Beenzino CD on our sixth month anniversary. Surprising me with new drum sticks when I lost my old ones. Showing up at my door and kidnapping me in the middle of the summer for a road trip when my sister took my car and we couldn’t go on our date. I look at these things and wonder how I’m good for you, when clearly you’d be a lot better off with someone else. I guess, though, I’m still hopeless. I can’t ask you to be with someone else because I’m no-good without you. Calc is ending, so I’ve gotta go. I’ll try to slip this to you between classes. I hope you enjoyed learning about this stupid side of me. Your Idiot Boyfriend, Chanyeol

Hello, it’s been a while!

I thought I wouldn’t have any real reason to post here anymore but I decided something!

A while back, XOXO Academy had a failed Kickstarter that mostly failed because I knew nothing about marketing. No big, tbh. BUT actually, I had already commissioned some of the prizes! So I have decided to release them on this blog.

There are only a few that can really be released electronically:

Love letters from different members of EXO (but of course, set in this AU)

“Photocard” illustrations, also set in this AU

So I will be putting those things in the queue. Please enjoy them!

This is a super random question but I played all the game's routes (at least I think that I did)but when I look at the game files there is this picture of a note which says"do you like me yes or no"and also pictures of day 2 and day 3 and one who says "just a little while later".I don't remember seeing these on any route if you could help me finding them I would really appreciate it since I want to experiencethe whole AMAZING game Thanks and great job! P.S Is it possible to find Luhan's password

Ah, wow! I never saw this question, I’m so sorry! >w<

Ah! Actually, those were all parts of the game I removed...

The “Do you like me yes or no” is from Kai’s original ending. I removed it because I rewrote Kai’s ending.

The “Just a little while later” screen was formerly used during certain confession scenes which were re-written.

Nope, you can’t get into Luhan’s computer. I thought about putting an easter egg in there, but... I was really frustrated with not being able to put the game out so I just went and made it. So no Easter egg either. )^:

As an aside, though, thanks so much for enjoying XOXO Academy ; w ; We worked really hard on it and I feel happy even though I’m a bit embarrassed when I think about how my first project was an EXO otome.... Still, it seems to be fairly liked, so I’m pretty grateful! Thanks a lot!

Welcome to the blog of Indie Game Developer, owl. Have a post you want us to see? tag: #jelpipa

Interested in tracking my future projects? Follow me here on Jellyfish Parade to here the latest developments of currently existing and upcoming games!

If someone wanted to donate money for the artists, will there be a possible way to do that after kickstarter end and will there be a sequel for xoxo academy?

If you would like to donate money to the artists, the links to their tumblrs are on the “About the Creators” section.

Unfortunately, the Kickstarter came and went. We couldn’t quite get it “kickstarted” //brick’d

There will not be a direct sequel to XOXO Academy, but there will likely be a companion game about VIXX. I am still in the beginning stages of planning, but most likely it will be framed after their Japanese “Hana Kaze” album in concept. (^:

Of Ice & Snow by chouette

a tale of two sisters and a man with a frozen heart

So, my second game is out... if anyone would like to play it, that would be cool... If not, that’s cool too but I thought I’d throw it up here, too. (^:

It’s not EXO related but, you know.

[xoxoacademy]

From the writer of XOXO Academy...

Once upon a time there was an icy land, the doors of which could only be opened by a broken heart, full of despair. When an island girl loses her sister, she crosses over and enters a land memorialized by her people's songs and stories. She is well aware that it is filled with snow, ice, wolves, and most importantly... The Ice Prince. Some songs call him a monster, said to eat the hearts of maidens Others call him a master of wolves, judging by the faithful horde he's rumored to rule Others still, a youth, thousands of years old but frozen in time by the coldness of his own heart...

So this is an non-XOXO Academy related PSA. I’ve been working on a small game to kinda get myself into the groove again. It’s not out yet but it will be sometimes this month, so... here’s me letting you know about it.

I’ll post a link when it’s available to download!

[xoxoacademy]

Hello! I'm the anon that had problems with unzipping the file, I finally figured it out! I guess I didn't delete the zip app :D I had problems because I couldn't find anything about zip and apparently it's named differently in the language my computer is set in :D Thank you still for your attention though! :) Have a good day :) <3

I’m sorry I didn’t get around to answering your message D: Tumblr never notified me... I just happened to look and there it was.

In any case, I’m glad it all worked out!! Happy romancing and you as well!

[xoxoacademy]

I hope you keep this blog up so I can apply to be an artist for the second version for free but like two years later :v

The irony would be that I would end up waiting two years anyway LOL. ^^ Thank you for your interest in supporting future projects. That’s nice of you. ^^

[xoxoacademy]

i cant open the file :( it says no application so i tried to download zip but one of them (i think the one that i need) is blocked by my anti virus program :( can you link which zip i should download? im a very amateur computer user sorry :(

It’s fine-- I can’t give you a link to which to download until I know what kind of computer you have.

So! What kind of computer do you have?

The XOXO Academy Survey

For the record, it’s gotten 83 responses since it was first posted in June.

If possible, I’d like to get 17 more so that I can make an infographic about the game’s data!
