Artificial Academy 2 [edit]



  • AA2Edit.exe Card (character template) editor ◀◀◀
  • AA2Play.exe Free roam
  • AA2QtEdit.exe Save file editor
  • Poser 3D scene editor similar to Koikatu Chara Studio

A Card (.PNG file) is a character template containing physical and behavial settings. Card data are saved into .PNG custom data layer. Usually, these data are parameters and references instead of the actual data. References of mods requires the mod already installed (e.g. custom hair mod 3D model; personality voice audio files; module codes). Optionally, a card can store/embed some actual data (a modcard).

Editing a Card (.PNG file) does not change any character in-game, and vice versa. In-game character data and Card data are separate. Cards do not contain any mood and opinion (link contains SPOILER) etc yet. See also Save file editor.

The card editor is also known as Maker, きゃらめいく, Charameiku.

Description and Voice actress (CV)
Personality 1 Description 2 Voice actress (CV)

琉花あか

然 Playful She often tells you she's like a cat in heat. Even without Lewd trait she likes having sex all the time, anywhere, and when she asks you to follow, you never know if it's to a quiet room to talk or the girl's room stall. She likes taking the lead, but she also likes someone who can grab the lead themselves.

Oka Madoka

岡まどか

尖 Harsh (Uptight) Apathetic, negative, and abusive later on. She shows off her indifferent manner openly. But once she gets intimated, she starts talking with insulting manner which is to conceal her actual sentiment. Reading her mood is easier from her tone rather than from her dialogue.

"Huh!? There's nothing gay about boy loving boys!"
Kimishima Tooko

君嶋とおこ

慎 Reserved Extremely passive character. She stutters, pauses on words frequently, holds back an action even if she prompted it first.

A lack of self-esteem makes her hold back and isolate herself, leading to her being afraid of intimacy. Even becoming closer to her rewards you with general awkwardness in such situations, even though it is visible that she does yearns to belong and wishes to share her feelings. Her overall reservedness rewards the patient with adorkable yet sincere and loving relationship.

Becomes more self-deprecating the deeper in love she falls, as if she feels unworthy of the love she wants. Discussions about love and romance are more deeply personal for her and can win her heart.
"Lovers... Th-they're supposed to...hold hands, after all... Right?"
"Wh-what comes after a k-kiss is... It's..."
