Lane
is in trouble and needs work, ASAP. At the kick-off of his final
year of high school, he turns to asking the faculty for help. The
assistant principal Mr. Underwood recommends a unique solution: form
and lead a student organization dedicated to the support and
maintenance of the institution. However,
Lane must convince at least four other students to join the group
before the end of the week.
Underneath this pretext he quickly learns the school administration is more sinister than it seems, that great danger lies within the school walls, and that the group he’s forming may be more necessary than he realized.
Your choices guide Lane through this dark drama and romance as shifting pressures form, strain, and shatter strong bonds. Found a student government, recruit members, and struggle to maintain them in the face of unexpected challenges and danger.

how many jumpscares are in this game
wait is it actually a horror game?
What are the fetishes in this one?
any vns similar to this while I wait?
Tomorrow for sure!
Well. That was the most messed up thing I think I've enjoyed. I don't know if there's really going to be more coming out considering how it ended, but hopefully the writing knows what they're doing.
I don't think we are getting a full version 😭
That's what makes me sad af. prologue was so damn good!!!!
Definitely not. It's such a a shame because the story was top tier and the art was amazing 😭
I misread it as soviet union before-
is this freky
what the fuck whose at
absolutely amazing novel cant wait for full version/part 2
YOO, alright i'll drop my honest reaction, the game is so cool and contains both horror and romance genre, perhaps i'll add psychological because of the prank, Im eager to see the full release. Man the ending left me hanging hell naw.
P.S. I might do a showcasing video for this so yeah, im waiting for the full release on mobile
Sincerely, Kevin_plays ty.
VISUAL NOVEL VILLAGE!!!! DROP ANOTHER STUDENT UNION VN UPDATE. AND MY LIFE. IS YOURS
Visual Novel Village has abandoned us, now there is no hope.
When the full game drops, do you know if it will be free to download off itch.io?
Does this game support Chinese language?
i don't think so
Hope this game gets an update soon on release date cause i fell in love with it so fast
no spoilers please
Played this on random games. Looks interesting
If this game drops, and that's a big if, I'll paint the ceiling with my grey matter.
it is dropping, just don't know when.
Fuck.
We're gonna be waiting so long GTA 6 will come out first
Yeah bro, I think it ain't coming out.
Omg I'm hooked from the demo. Is the full game available for purchase?
This game has the potential to be the best Vn game,this game also has the potential to be a good,story rich and story focused AVN game
what is the Name for the OTS ?
The story was so good. It's unfortunate that this will most likely end up as another scam😔
Did it have sex scene, for science purpose
Nahh
Wdym another scam,can you explain please
the story was quite good. the ending was a nice turining point
though i have been seing the comments and wondering if we are gonna get the full thing soon..
apparently , there was an update on their patreon a few days ago, but I can't read it. Does anyone know what this says behind the paywall about the games development? It looks a lot like a "heh, sorry guys, I've dropped the game" without full context.
Edit: removed typo
it's an update with sample CGs and sprite.
I'm surprised it still has donors tbh.
I've waited.. and waited.. it's been 4yrs now.. it's taking too damn long.. but I'll wait another 4yrs if I have to..
Incredible demo, especially the ending. Would love to see a continuation and expansion of different routes
dawn last uptade is from 2021, I am sad now
Why does everyone act like the game is dead? They just said development is ongoing a few months ago. Why would it be dead now?
Revive the game🙏
tho its really dead, i think it has a really good story! i really wish it did end up coming back around :((
Underrestimated deadlines or scale, dead silence in every social media aside discord., this is becoming of a yet another kickstarter scam
I'm starting to think Cain is the main villain and I feel pretty bad for both Lane & Principal Decker.
I've noticed this game hasn't been updated or any news for a while which is unfortunate cause I really enjoyed it. Did a Full Gameplay to the demo. Can't wait for the FULL RELEASE!
Man, the song and dance one has to do to get any modicum of information on this game makes you think it's almost worth the effort. A dead Patreon, a barren Twitter and a comically elusive Discord server makes it practically impossible for people who are not "in the know" to keep track of this project, and it's a shame because, despite having played the demo over a year ago, the story still remains fresh in my mind. At the very least update this page with a link to the Discord, unless the underground, spoken in hushed whispers reputation is what the dev team is striving for.

SEE BELOW
No updates, development or otherwise, since April 2023.Author/creator/developer is unreachable on all platforms and no contact information is provided anywhere.All Discord links are either invalid or expired.The project is abandoned. Other than the hundreds of dollars that for some reason stupid people are still funneling into them on a Patreon that also hasn't been updated since early 2023.NOTE: at some point last day or so the dev posted an update which is great news! I think some ppl assumed I was trying to get this thing cancelled by posting about this and that's just not true. Since the discord links have historically always been dead, or set to expire after a few days, I'm gonnaput a screenshot of the announcement here for proof. I'm updating this post and striking out the orginal because of this. Hopefully this is a good sign of more to come and more frequent updates to let us know about how it's going.
For now this is awesome news. It's not dead and may even see an update soon. And at least for now, user "Teashrock" did provide a Discord invite link in a response below -- https://discord.com/invite/M33kVpna
If you want to get updates from them in the future I would advize joining ASAP, I have no idea how long those invite codes actually last or if another one would be provided in the future.
Thank you!
""Todd, Friday, November 24, 2023
Hey, everyone. It's been some time since our last formal update, and I wanted to let you all know that Student Union's development remains ongoing, with renewed vigor. As we work to solidify an updated timeline, we may also be announcing a new member of the development team in coming months.
Thanks to everyone showing patience and kindness. I look forward to sharing more soon.""
struck-out/edited as no longer relevant
(see top parent comment above)I love how you responded to tell us we're wrong, then proceed to share a discord link with no updates either, and literally an entire community full of people who are wondering what's going on too.Thanks for sharing the invite link at least, but the game is dead and will continue to be dead unless and until the author brings it back to life. (Which he can't do without giving a fucking update.)oof

It will probably last 7 days.
Ayo bro send another inv
Are those trash bags with ...!
I wanted dis to be a sex game
they'll make it into one if it ever fully came out
As far as Im aware, R18+ content will be available as an optional download/addon for the game. As in, people who want it to be part of the game, can have it.
That could of course change, follow along with its development or ask in the Discord if you're curious further https://discord.com/invite/M33kVpna
(for the record I'm interested in it as well.)
