_____________________________________________
AFTER CLASS:
After Class is a gay, male-focused, NSFW story-driven furry visual novel focused on the relationship between the main character (you / default name: Walter) and the people he meets. This VN covers some controversial topics, your everyday conversation, dead memes (especially), and such. Every choice you make has its consequences, and it might change the outcome of the story.
//
THE STORY:
You play as a clumsy husky/malamute/wolf mix beastman, who has yearned for a change since the high school times. After thousands of reasoning and arguments, you managed to convince your parents to let you move out.
Finally free from a house that you described as a prison in all but name, you started moving to your new house, where your parents rented for you.
Even though they let you move out, they had one rule you should follow: "Move to Highwell and attend Highwell University." which you agreed gleefully.
It's the first day of college in Highwell University, and you know no one in this city. You met a bunch of new people! Some of them are weird, some of them are nice, some had a troubled past. But one thing for sure: they are being too friendly with you as if you were a friend they used to know...?
As you get to know them better, your head started to hurt more often, forgotten memories resurfacing, and cryptic dreams keep appearing in your sleep. They are almost like a part of something really important... What is it, and why can't you remember anything about it?
Did your parents send you here, knowing that you'll remember everything? Is it a mere coincidence? Or is there something else in play?
Why don't you come to Highwell and find out yourself?
//
THE PLACES:
It all takes place in a suburban area of Highwell, where you discover your lost memories as well as making a new one.
You're not limited to that area, though. There are more for you to discover in and outside Highwell. From cityscapes to mountainsides, we have it all. Pretty cool, don't you think?
//
THE CHARACTERS:
What's a story if it doesn't have characters in it? Meet the lovely cast of After Class, we have all kinds of people in Highwell.
I say all kinds of people, but it's a lot of buff dudes, that I admit.

It's kinda funny to think that Walter has been trying to remember his past 2 weeks for 6 years now
Lol, true
i wonder how/if he will continue the story past day 14. It seems like there is a lot more story to cover
Can anyone share a link to the discord server? I lost my previous account
Looks great!
When is the next update
its already 2 months and still no updates ）：
Yeah, I’m sadly and patiently waiting for the announcement 😔
probably after he returns from vacation, he’s probably just working the last few bits
i mean the time between has been about 60 days from what i have seen
I have a slight feeling that Andrew's gonna play a big role in revealing walter's past. Just a hunch
I tried using the upload button for Ren'py to upload my saves, was given a code, deleted and reinstalled the game to the newest version, then tried to download the saves and am being told the sync server doesnt have a copy of this sync. So i just lost all of my saved data. Did i do something wrong? Do i need to download some kind of add on for Ren'py?
Anything would be helpful for the next time an update comes out.
Thanks.
guys im wondering when the newest version will be released on itch.
expecting to play episode wilfred
idk, i think hes taking a break for family and holiday. I cant wait for the next update
thx~
My Issues with After Class VN and Lars’ Lore (SPOILER WARNING)
I recently played through After Class VN, and while I really enjoyed it, I have some problems with the story—particularly regarding its lore. The story is engaging, the characters (especially Lars) are hot asf, and overall, it’s a well-made visual novel. However, there’s one specific lore detail that changes how I see Lars, and not in a good way.
Throughout the game, I often wondered how Walter and Lars became so close so quickly. It felt both unnatural and natural at the same time. Andy’s writing is so effective that, despite only knowing Lars for about a week in the story, I still fell for him. When I first learned that Lars had ties to Walter’s past, I was a little suspicious, but I didn’t think too much of it. By Day 11 in Lars’ good route, the chemistry between them was undeniable—it was intense for just an 11-day connection, but love can develop at different paces, so I went along with it.
Then I played Lars Episode 1 and 2, and my feelings took a turn. I wasn’t just confused—I was frustrated. Here’s why:
A small reason is we learn that Lars used to be close with him. Seeing how deep that connection went made me wonder—did those feelings just fade over time, or is there still something there? Maybe I’m just jealous, but it left me curious.
But my biggest issue is what we learn about Walter’s father. Apparently, he was the one who instructed Lars to go undercover—to disappear, act homeless, and get as close to Walter as possible. He even encouraged Lars to find a way to live in Walter’s house. With that in mind, I can’t help but question everything about Lars’ relationship with Walter.
Is their connection genuine, or is it all just an act orchestrated by Walter’s dad? Is anything Lars has done—like kissing Walter as early as Day 6—real, or was it all forced? Does Lars actually like Walter at all?
After Class fucking loves foreshadowing, so hear me out. One moment that stood out to me was in Day 10 when Walter wonders if Lars might not actually like him—that maybe he’s just pretending so he can have a place to stay. While we know Lars doesn’t need a home, this line feels like foreshadowing. It raises the unsettling question: is Lars only acting like he loves Walter because his father told him to?
I hope they reveal that Lars was initially sent to watch over Walter, following orders from Walter’s father, but over time, he genuinely fell in love. This would add so much depth to his character, turning what seemed like a forced relationship into something meaningful and heartfelt.
Imagine Lars struggling with his emotions—at first, he sees his mission as just another task, but as he spends more time with Walter, he starts to care for him in ways he never expected. He might wrestle with guilt, wondering if his feelings are real or if he’s just convincing himself they are. Eventually, he’d have to make a choice: does he stay loyal to the mission, or does he follow his heart?
This kind of development would not only make his love for Walter feel more genuine, but it would also create a powerful emotional conflict. If Walter ever found out the truth, it could lead to a moment of heartbreak—questioning whether Lars’ love was real or just part of the plan. But if done right, it could make their bond even stronger, proving that love can emerge even from the most unexpected circumstances. (If Walter won’t stop being so naive.)
@THEONEANDONLYRAY i love how your thinking works, thats actually making sense.
I also curious about Lars because he has tied connection to Walter, Coach Gil and Parker.
I'm sorry, Wilfred?? I think you're talking about Walter, the grape purple canine who we play as. Wilfred is the nice blue dragon/fish.
I'm so embarrassed so this whole time while I was hyper focused while writing I was confidently using the wrong name...
Did Gil's route get changed? I've been following the guide and I don't get the heart on day 11 for some weird reason
They may be updating his rout soon
in the other gallery, how can i unlock all of them?. i have unlocked some of them. Pls someone tell me how to!
How to do like that on Lars?
i think because i have played the old version of this game but i don't know how to unlock it in new version
Por favor continúen con la ruta de Parker 😣 está vn me encanta
If this game has a book version (if ever), I will not hesitate to spend my money on this phenomenal, breathtaking, and extraordinary novel. HUHUHUHU, my only wish
I like this idea, and regardless, it will be a beaut if they can really do a book adaptation of this
so im a little confused, when the full game is ready, will it be here or is that a patreon thing? one of the tiers include "unpolished update when it's ready", does this mean the full game or smth? sorry if this is a dumb question im just confused
I think it means that the patreons receive an unpolished version of a next update
for example, an unpolished(without bug fixes, grammar fixes, etc) version of a new update with new days for a character
Too much attention focused towards putting MC and Mark together, like guys I get it if you want me to suck cat dick then don't even give me the option to romance somebody else for gods sake.
Update: Okay, I'm actually starting to like Mark a lot
LMAO??? true tho i lurve mark
I'm disappointed our MC doesn't tell his Dad he loves him in the Mark route, I felt that was one of the sweetest moments in Gil route. It really shows how being around other people can effect your attitude
Do anyone know when the next update is coming out?
Uhm...... Guys?... Am I the only one who got suspicious in every route on this game I mean there's a scary path like the sound getting loader or even the word and back ground and also the character glitching or secret path like that? Well I do a long Research because I freak the hell out when i encounter one. I dunno if the writer or creator make it or just coincidence? Well on lars route said that Walter (the main character) got accident? And he can't tell to Walter why he can't tell him about the accident? ( actually I'm at day 8 in lars when I encounter a glitch) and I search in YouTube and found that lars day 9 and I watched I don't know if Herbert or me the one who stab lars in chest repeatedly? I... Don't think the main character Walter is actually a killer and he accident so he lost some of his memory? So he can be a new Walter? I dunno I can't explain but... Is there's something happening to the creator of this game or the writer???? Please help me IM FREAKING THE GELL OUT NOW AND IT'S 3:40 AM IN THE MORNING...
Yeah AndehP does it in every route
Usually, creepy event just happens once in a route and will never occur again. If you want to play through creepy scenes again, you have to delete the data of the game or uninstall and re-download it. These scenes, I think, are meant to reveal Walter's dark past or the danger that he will have to face or his other personality.
Spoiler alert
There's even a scene where Walter gets stabbed and dies
How to encounter Walter gets stab and die:(((
Parker's Route, I don't remember the day but when you receive a message from an unknown number at the university's gate, choose "Prank Message" and wait
Oh you mean the gate scene.
Pleae I neeed answer to this: What do 'Top' and 'Bottom' mean in the given guide? Do they apply to the MC or to the Interest character?
I found the same question here, but I never got to see the actual answer....
for the character in question...
uhm yk Top for who do it and Bottom for who gets it
Can someone please answer my stupid question I wonder if I did something wrong that I only got twenty four hearts I wonder if other people got the same as me I have played it many times but it's the same or is this update limited to one heart
24 hearts with who?
Coach Gil
So how many hearts did you get?
They have guide for that
I followed the instructions but the maximum height I got was only 24.
I NEED WILFRED'S ROUTEE
Question: On the guide, when it says it gives a Bottom or Top point, is it giving a bottom/top point to MC (making them more bottom/top) or giving one to the interest (and making them more bottom/top)?
There is a guide? Where can i find it?
Here~

Thank you :)
cant find it by scrolling on the internet, but does anyone have a doc of some sorts for all the love/like points for Gil?

Thank you!! :D
Ive first played this vn in 2022 and alot has changed, but i have to admit i have never read any other vns that was this good. I wish i could read this vn the first time
Try remember the flowers, the first 1-3 chapters might be a little shitty but chapter 5-17 made me want to stab my eyes out and cry all my tears out
The music is glitching out.. like it gets loud out of nowhere like it's an analog horror thingy 😭 weird bug.. anyone here that does the same thing?
Well, I don't know which part that is (and I forgot which route) but that is intentional if I remember correctly.
Wait wasn't Lars Day 12 supposed to be out with this update?
Andy Could you answer me if there is another way to make a donation? I don't have PayPal and I don't like using cards. Because of this, there are no other ways to help with a donation, to contribute to the project that is being developed.
- Oh, my English is not very fluent, there may be mistakes in my writing.
Logan should have his own route
Reading through the comments and not seeing any of the husbear Parker.. He needs more love!! #BearSupremacy
I need more. I also wish there were more "spicy" scenes. hehe
Do my eyes deceive me, or are there new dialog sprites for each route?
How do I get the "secret" parts of the story to activate again? I was playing through Gils route day 11 and there was some text that showed up, but I thought I missed something so I rolled back. Now that text isn't showing up anymore and something completely different happens instead.. I thought maybe it was a random number generator sort of thing but I've loaded my save and rolled back multiple times, like, a LOT of times, and its not showing back up..
Those "secret parts" are some one-time events that can only happen once during a normal gameplay. Once you encounter these scenes for the first time, the game will automatically disable from your files the possibility to see them again. So the only way to rewatch these parts is by actually deleting all your data from this game in your device, which means restarting the game with nothing. Or maybe you could find some videos / screenshots in the Internet also but not sure.
Do they change the storyline at all? Or is it just some "flavor text" basically?
More like flavor texts yeah, it doesn't affect the storyline at all
Uhh did they added gill route day 11 part 3?
yes it was added last update.
Ohh well thank you for telling mee :3
Hey guys. I want to know the last update . What is it about
in Andy patreon or Discord cause next month . I gonna be a membership
*If the info can't tell in public it's ok
ok i see it alr in patreon
how do I delete pc game data?
Delete the files in C:\Users\[your pc name]\AppData\Roaming\RenPy
Gonna ask guys. How to delete the game data? I wanted to do it all over again as if I'm just new here.
delete the app
Done, and Still there.
I don't know if it's the same for PC and or Mac but Android have a red X to delete save data when you go into load
That is available to all. But what I mean is that to delete all game files in pc so that when i play the same route again, I can't skip the dialogues.
Delete the files in C:\Users\[your pc name]\AppData\Roaming\RenPy
hey guys i found this while playing on Lars route. Im not sure if its made to show exactly on that day or its a chance thing to get but if there is something i can do here that might impact the story or whatever please tell me!
it’s for that day. after the first time you do it, it’ll change. Dunno if it has any impact tho
Okay, thank you for telling me
SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

.
does anyone else feel like the "giant of harusu" thing is a set up for another event?
I think giant of Harusu is a reference from another Japanese visual novel called "Lagoon Lounge".
yeah, I discovered that after commenting, but thanks for saying nonetheless
I thought after the update I will see the image that Gil sent to the MC on the conversation on the phone but it's still missing...
