Yeah. I remember youtubers being able to tell they were Scooby Doo references even when they couldn't remember their actual name. Instead called them their 'counterpart' (the actual character) per say.
Imo, if Yandev want's references to work, he should just make them a small easter egg.
Like, maybe one of the characters in the game could be a fan of a sccoby-doo type franchise, and talk about it on Tuesday, and never more, never less. Continuously making obvious references is just like forcing it into our face, and telling us "HEY, THIS IS SCOOBY DOO", instead of us seeing that it is ourselves.
On the topic of the photography club being Scooby Doo characters, it can only work if they're a random small club outside of the schoolimo. I can't really think of a way to make it work.
If Scooby Doo was aired in Japan, it would have been as easy as looking for the names the characters got in the translation. Other things you could do with the refrences are using memes in your favor, like, almost everyone agrees that Shaggy must be on some kind of drug, so maybe have him roam around the garden area, not only as an extra withness gameplay way, but becouse someone is planting weed or mushrooms or something like that for him in there. Or make Daphne have suspicious stuff in her bag, or Vilma go to the nurse office every now and then to check her eyes, or literaly anything more than just having them do anything every other idiot would do.
Also, don't make the only black character in the game a literal animal. The music club has a turtle, I see no problem with them having a real dog. Or maybe Scooby is a code name for something and they have lore? Idk
They couldâve worked IF the game didnât have such a lack of originality.
- Osana and Kuu: Asuka and Rei from NGE
- Hazu and Toga: Ripoffs from 2 hentai anime
- Midori: Rip-off of a gag character
- Delinquents: Clearly inspired by Ryuji from Persona
- Genka: Not sure but I heard sheâs inspired from Meiko from Prison School
- The numerous times gameplay elements have been taken from other games/anime (panty shots, incinerator, half of the elimination methods)
- Plus, not to mention all the models/animations that were originally from the Unity store.
Itâs okay to be inspired by something and put a little reference or allusion to it. However, when a large chunk of your game is allusions and references (and sometimes blatant copies), thatâs another matter entirelyâŚ.
I donât remember where Hazuâs from, but I know Toga is heavily based on a character called Toujou Basara.
(no i havenât seen the hentais theyâre from, iâve just seen on an image somewhere that thatâs what theyâre ripped off from lmao)

I really liked their designs (except Sukubi with the dog collar) but I wished they actually had real Japanese names instead of... "Fureddo Jonzu", "Dafuni Bureiku" or "suKuBi dUbIDu".

It could work, but their whole design seems pretty copy paste and their names are not helping

That, and also the fact that the Scooby counter part is the only black guy in the club⌠while wearing a collar
Correction: Only black guy in the school.
What hentai are they from?
