Afaik you need to hold down ESC & the refresh button while you boot up your laptop, but I'm surprised it's asking for developer mode. Maybe it already works if you start the game with administrator rights and disable your malware defender or whitelist the game in it. But I don't have a lot of experience with Chrome OS.
Can someone give me a hint on how I get mother mirandas bad ending (not spoiler everything just the stuff I need todo to have the bad ending) love the choices and how the mc is relatable!
Love this game! The graphics are so beautiful, and the story is really well-crafted. My favorite routes so far are Bela, Miranda, and Daniela. Cassandra was originally in the top three, but her bad ending scared the shit out of me. Good job. Bela is best, I guess I'm into mean girls. Also, Miranda reminds me of Monica from DDLC. She’s so adorable, I like her. and Daniela is a cutie pie <3
and now I've completed angie's route too.she give me the actual college love vibe so that's great lol
AAAHH OMG DONNA IS SUCH A CUTIE I LOOOVEEE HOW YOU MADE HER LIKE A LITTLE MOUSEEE HER SQUEAKS ARE ADORABLE HOW DO YOU EVEN COME UP WITH THIS??? THIS I SO UNDERRATED (Edit: I NEED THE DESIGNS OF THEESE CHARACTERS ON PINTEREST. PLEASE)
im like i think 99% in mirandas route (the game advised me not to do her route first, so ofc i did her route first) and man im js hopping here to leave some good words because i love this. i didnt even play any re game (altought i do know some things about it because lets be fr, its resident evil ((it hit me like 50% in that miranda is,, mother miranda from the games)) and dude im in love i swear everything ab this game (or at least her route) is perfect from the subtle changes that reminds u that this vn is infact based of a horror game (cult talk, her changing to like a crow thing for a split second, the visions and others but i dont wanna spoil too much), the arstyle, the writing, the way it has me edging in my seat cause i dont know if we're boutta flippin die at this point,, and yeah im gonna stop here cause i wanna see the ending and my english is failing me (english is definetly not my first language) ((sorry for so many parantheses but istg this game is so good i dont even know how express myself lmfao)) anyways you guys rock wish you luck on this and other projects and you definetly deserve more attention
i just finished Miranda's and like OMG HER DESIGN IS SO GOODD I LOVE ITT, i keep recommending this to my friends but they think I'm weird cause i downloaded a dating sim even though i dislike them ANW NO REGRETS ON GETTING THIS ITS AMAZING THANKYOUUU <3
It could have a variety of reasons: temporarily turn off your malware defender, make sure you've got administrator rights, maybe use a different unpacker, or try redownloading the file.
Please tell me is there a good ending with bella? Did i do something wrong? Cause she got the cadou please tell me man i beg of you. My heart is crushed rn man
Use an unpacker, for example WinRAR, to unpack it and then run the "Resident_Lover" file. You may have to run it as administrator or whitelist it in your malware defender. If this doesn't help, what system are you on exactly and where does an error occur?
i'm having like the exact same problem and i tried to troubleshoot it a little. checked properties and tried "unblock" and apply (didn't do anything). opening it with 7zip didn't work either sadly, i tried checking properties inside 7zip and it only has the same error messages like "unexpected end of data" or "archive is corrupt". so far there's nothing to help resolve it sadly as i tried the suggested stuff in the thread
I absolutely loved this game. Like completely. Every route was so different and unique and creepy at times bt weird enough my fav route was Mirandas. I was not expecting that at all. Then cassandra because awww man and Donna. You guys did an absolute marvelous job i thank you for especially making an android version. All these cool games never come available to me so i appreciate you and all the hard work you put it. This was a joy to play ♥️
You have to download "com.teamavia.residentlover-release.apk" and then install it with an Android file manager, and you will probably have to confirm that you want to install an app from an unknown source. You may also have to turn off some security settings on your phone, at least temporarily.
If your phone is not an Android, then you will have to play one of the desktop versions. It's only available as a mobile game on Android.
(spoilers in the last half of this comment, uhh sorry i wrote a lot, i really liked this 10/10)
sooooo i just went through four routes, because i saw this on twit and I NEEDED to go through this, literally i simp for all of them, god cass and bela HIT THE SPOT FRFR their routes were so fun to do. i related a lot to dani.
the art is also stunning,
i think this is my favorite visual novel ive played, its really REALLY well made, each and every single character is so interesting, this has amazing characterization.
bruh i wish i savored each route now, cuz i kinda just rammed through it i was so excited, LIKE I WANT MORE OF EACH OF THEIR ROUTES,
SPOILERS HERE ON
-cass and belas route are my absolute favorite so far. the interactive map stuff for bellas route is just *chefs kiss*, and i love all the references that were made too.
-i started with cassandra's route, my god, i thought i only simped for their mom, but you guys got me simping for their whole bloodline equally now.
cass is also so cute, the "my star" and their little date at the end (my face hurt from smiling so hard)
-bruh all of the bad/sad endings were heart wrenching (yk i didnt expect to be hit in the feels like that so hard) ESP THE STATUES MY LORD... THAT SCARED ME, and all the bad/sad endings for their daughters :( my heart bro
-ALSO SOFT BELA just ugh oh my god i cant even put into words how much i love this
-DONNA IS SO CUTE IM DYING the possessiveness is jsut ajsdlfjs god and shes so adorable just absolutely dying
-AND I JUST FINISHED MIRANDA'S ROUTE, HOLY SHIT BRUH, as much as i hated her in the other routes, SHES SO HOT aand also really really sweet, (the pouring alc into the characters mouth killed me, n the leash comment almost ascended my soul to a new plane existence) WAA IT WAS SOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD
again i say, i never really simped over anyone else but alcina, BUT THIS GAME CHANGED ME IM COMING FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY BRUH.
i feel like the developers got the characterization for everyone spot on yk. and the side characters too like elena, finch, avery, etc i was invested in their stories too ykyk, seriously this is a great game frfr. (also the filipino rep IM HERE FOR IT)
(spoiler from here on)
I high key hated miranda in every other route EXCEPT HERS, god i never saw what people saw in her UNTIL THIS GAME DUDE FRFR. AND DONNA OH MY LORDDDDDDDD SHES SO CUTE
(also im avoiding doing the bad ending for miranda because im scared LOL)
each route got me blushing and giggling n shiz.. i cant even choose my favorite anymore. again you all did a wonderful job on this game, left me longing for more.
So I finished my first play through and it ended with Alcina and I agreeing that we had to go on the run after she killed Miranda. I can't tell if this is a good, bad, or neutral ending. On one hand I'm sticking with my love interest and our relationship is well. On the other she also killed someone and we're now going to be on the run because of it.
Either way great game, loved the art style and the storyline. Can't wait to play the other love interests.
I've been waiting for the full release since this game was first announced, and I am SO READY. You bet your ass once I'm done uni I'm playing this with every waking moment.
The game was wonderful, I was looking forward to playing, I would really like it to have versions in other languages, such as Portuguese. incredible work, congratulations
I finished it, I love it. This game is so well made, probably gonna make you cry, gay panic and hyperventilate, but it is so worth it. All the routes are amazing and the art style is perfect. It fits so well, plot twists are amazing, just, you need to play this game
I'm so sad my laptop won't let me play. I've downloaded it on my macbook air (macOS Monterey 12.7.1) and it keeps saying it can't open the game because it can't identify the developer to tell if it's malware or not
Apple can be a bit stricter about allowing non-notarised software. You should be able to open it even if the defender complains if you go to Privacy & Security in System Settings and click on "Open Anyway".
WHOOPS! you’re right, lol! i think i remember the game not allowing me to go to the library as the scholar when i hadn’t completed all the routes, though i’ll need someone who hasn’t to correct me
Ecstatic for the release! The demos were so baller, I can't wait to dig into this on various streams for ALL ENDINGS. Gearing up for heart break & swooning, baybee.

I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH EHEHEHEHHEHEEHEHEHE
when i try and open the file on desktop is says i have to turn on chrome os developer mode any ideas on how i’m supposed to do that?
Afaik you need to hold down ESC & the refresh button while you boot up your laptop, but I'm surprised it's asking for developer mode. Maybe it already works if you start the game with administrator rights and disable your malware defender or whitelist the game in it. But I don't have a lot of experience with Chrome OS.
Can someone give me a hint on how I get mother mirandas bad ending (not spoiler everything just the stuff I need todo to have the bad ending) love the choices and how the mc is relatable!
You mostly need to pick the options antagonise her. There is a guide to the routes on our socials now!
How do I get to daniella route?
She's in The Social Butterfly route and then pick Door Two!
Love this game! The graphics are so beautiful, and the story is really well-crafted. My favorite routes so far are Bela, Miranda, and Daniela. Cassandra was originally in the top three, but her bad ending scared the shit out of me. Good job. Bela is best, I guess I'm into mean girls. Also, Miranda reminds me of Monica from DDLC. She’s so adorable, I like her. and Daniela is a cutie pie <3
and now I've completed angie's route too.she give me the actual college love vibe so that's great lol
Thank you a lot for the game, I now have the biggest brainrot for Lady Beneviento ever <3. (my thanks are sincere, I loved her route)
do you know how to get the bad ending? im tryna get all of them lol
i saw the official tumblr posted like an ending guide so that might be of help!
Oh thanks man!
AAAHH OMG DONNA IS SUCH A CUTIE I LOOOVEEE HOW YOU MADE HER LIKE A LITTLE MOUSEEE HER SQUEAKS ARE ADORABLE HOW DO YOU EVEN COME UP WITH THIS??? THIS I SO UNDERRATED (Edit: I NEED THE DESIGNS OF THEESE CHARACTERS ON PINTEREST. PLEASE)
I am struggling on how to get Miranda’s route? Is there a certain we to get it?
She's in The Scholar route, head to the library instead of the club fair when you get the choice :)
thank you! ahh loved her route
im like i think 99% in mirandas route (the game advised me not to do her route first, so ofc i did her route first) and man im js hopping here to leave some good words because i love this. i didnt even play any re game (altought i do know some things about it because lets be fr, its resident evil ((it hit me like 50% in that miranda is,, mother miranda from the games)) and dude im in love i swear everything ab this game (or at least her route) is perfect from the subtle changes that reminds u that this vn is infact based of a horror game (cult talk, her changing to like a crow thing for a split second, the visions and others but i dont wanna spoil too much), the arstyle, the writing, the way it has me edging in my seat cause i dont know if we're boutta flippin die at this point,, and yeah im gonna stop here cause i wanna see the ending and my english is failing me (english is definetly not my first language) ((sorry for so many parantheses but istg this game is so good i dont even know how express myself lmfao)) anyways you guys rock wish you luck on this and other projects and you definetly deserve more attention
💕 Thank you for the long ramble
i just finished Miranda's and like OMG HER DESIGN IS SO GOODD I LOVE ITT, i keep recommending this to my friends but they think I'm weird cause i downloaded a dating sim even though i dislike them ANW NO REGRETS ON GETTING THIS ITS AMAZING THANKYOUUU <3
It could have a variety of reasons: temporarily turn off your malware defender, make sure you've got administrator rights, maybe use a different unpacker, or try redownloading the file.
(SPOILERS)
Please tell me is there a good ending with bella? Did i do something wrong? Cause she got the cadou please tell me man i beg of you. My heart is crushed rn man
(SPOILERS)
There are actually two other endings with her (or more, though I doubt it) a good one and... the other one
(SPOILERS) Please do you know any way of how to get it? The good ending
Spoiler: Bela's endings are dependent on the "Do you support her?" in chapter 9.
miranda is such a cutie pie!!
how do i download it on desktop? whenever i extract the file, it doesn't allow me to do it
Use an unpacker, for example WinRAR, to unpack it and then run the "Resident_Lover" file. You may have to run it as administrator or whitelist it in your malware defender. If this doesn't help, what system are you on exactly and where does an error occur?
i am on windows 11 and when I used winRAR to run it, it says that the archive is corrupt :,))
:/ Someone else has had the same issue and hasn't been able to resolve it, but try any of the following:
If none of this works for you, maybe you can play it on a different device if you have one available?
i'm having like the exact same problem and i tried to troubleshoot it a little. checked properties and tried "unblock" and apply (didn't do anything). opening it with 7zip didn't work either sadly, i tried checking properties inside 7zip and it only has the same error messages like "unexpected end of data" or "archive is corrupt". so far there's nothing to help resolve it sadly as i tried the suggested stuff in the thread
Try turning off security settings in your browser or using a download manager.
I absolutely loved this game. Like completely. Every route was so different and unique and creepy at times bt weird enough my fav route was Mirandas. I was not expecting that at all. Then cassandra because awww man and Donna. You guys did an absolute marvelous job i thank you for especially making an android version.

how do you access the greyed out choice near the end of mirandas route? do you need all the secrets or something?
Sorry for the confusion that a lot of people are experiencing with this! These are always meant to be greyed out.
Thank you for the lovely game! Favorite routes so far are Lady D and Donna 😍💜
it's my first time ever using Tumblr and downloading a game this way.. if you don't mind.. how do i play it ?? since it's not an app..
i don't usually know how to play nor where the game is right now in my phone.. hoping someone to help me with this.
i really am struggling here trying to figure out how to download this and play it..
You have to download "com.teamavia.residentlover-release.apk" and then install it with an Android file manager, and you will probably have to confirm that you want to install an app from an unknown source. You may also have to turn off some security settings on your phone, at least temporarily.

I hope this helps!
You guys were doing God's work when making this game ᕙ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)ᕗ
How can i get the donna route? I'm kinda lost X_X
She's in "The Drifter" section you can select at the start!

Screaming, crying, throwing up.
I've been waiting for the full release since this game was first announced, and I am SO READY. You bet your ass once I'm done uni I'm playing this with every waking moment.
OH MY GOD. ITS HERE. OH MY GOD. GAY PANIC. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.
Thank you! We may offer translations in the future.
really wish mia was a love interest ngl
THE HEATHERS REFERENCE IM FOAMING TY
I GOT A BAD ENDING WITH LADY D </3 i don't think I'll ever recover from this emotionally.
God, all of these ladies are so hot! I even want to date the side characters. My gay little heart can't handle this much panic.
I finished it, I love it. This game is so well made, probably gonna make you cry, gay panic and hyperventilate, but it is so worth it. All the routes are amazing and the art style is perfect. It fits so well, plot twists are amazing, just, you need to play this game
Show post...
The art style is top notch
I'm so sad my laptop won't let me play. I've downloaded it on my macbook air (macOS Monterey 12.7.1) and it keeps saying it can't open the game because it can't identify the developer to tell if it's malware or not

Ahhh thank you I got it open <3 I'm excited to playyyyy
did bela as my first route and i was kicking my feet and twirling my hair all the time .... god shes so fine, let the lord smite me
FACTS.
MEAN GIRLS WHEN THEY GET SOFT >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
i was absolutely frothing in my sleep dreaming about the s.c pres calling me kitten *screaming crying throwing up*
on like my fourth playthrough trying to get president miranda!! enjoying all the other chars as i do it too
How exactly do you get Miranda?
you need to complete every other route first, then go to the library as the drifter!! honestly, it was so worth it. i absolutely adored this route
Slight emendation: it's in The Scholar, not The Drifter, (and technically completing the other routes first is recommended, but not needed).
WHOOPS! you’re right, lol! i think i remember the game not allowing me to go to the library as the scholar when i hadn’t completed all the routes, though i’ll need someone who hasn’t to correct me
If you click on the library again after getting that message, the game lets you pass!
I WAS SO EXCITED FOR THIS TO COME OUT!!!
GOD I WAITED FOR THIS IM SO GLAD ITS OUT NOW!
I remember the demo being really cool, can't wait to play the full game
i am SO EXCITED TO PLAY THIS
Ecstatic for the release! The demos were so baller, I can't wait to dig into this on various streams for ALL ENDINGS. Gearing up for heart break & swooning, baybee.
OMG! I WILL PLAY THIS XD
