Academy: Live! is an adult visual novel by passhonQ, built in Ren'Py with animated three-dimensional visuals. You play the male principal of ReLive Academy, a school that seems normal but is full of concealed recording equipment. A controlling Board of Directors expects the incoming principal to manipulate students and push them into revealing themselves through live broadcasts. The story centers on management, corruption, and netorare, and asks whether the principal obeys the Board or becomes personally involved with the girls.
Development continues with the early access build v0.11 EA, released July 2, 2026. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android, is available in English, and is uncensored. The latest changelog adds weekend scenes involving Emiko, Ayumi, Haruka, and Mai, including an after-class encounter, a group event, and another Board request opportunity. It also notes a fix for a bug that could occur when all events are completed in a particular order. After the 0.03.1a update, players need to begin a fresh save to prevent progression problems.
Developer's description
Academy: Live!
Is an adult visual novel that follows the story of the protagonist as he assumes the role of the Principal of the mysterious
ReLive Academy
. At first glance, it would seem that the place would be a regular teaching institute, however, it hides a secret underneath. The place is filled with hidden cameras and recording devices, to witness the everyday life that occurs in the academy, and the mysterious
'Board of Directors'
expect that the new Academy Principal would use his newfound position to corrupt the students and make them expose themselves to these Live Broadcasts.
Will the Principal use his position to satisfy the ever controlling Board, or will he get too close to the girls and choose another approach?
Warning: You will HAVE to start a new save after the 0.03.1a Update, otherwise things will break.

Hers was the only one missing out of the main girls, but we just had her first H event on our last update, so now it makes sense for her to finally have it.
5 Random Academy Events
These are small decision events that will help to better shape the Academy and give some nice 'filler' content during the day. They have a random chance of happening. I'll definitely add more than just 5, probably with each update there'll be more of these to give a good variety.
Gave a facelift to the Main Menu, it's still not as pretty as I'd like it to be, this was just an attempt and I ran out of time to make it look better, but it's still cooler than before.
Made it slightly easier for the girls to agree to the Favor Exchange feature.
