AV Director Life!

AV Director Life! is a simulation game about producing adult videos while managing debt. You play as Kosuke Yasuda, a former JAV company employee who starts his own production business after meeting Nodoka Himeyama. You choose locations and items, film scenes, edit the footage and sell your work, while balancing production with part-time jobs and debt repayments.

Produce and sell videos

You film Nodoka in different scenes and situations, then cut and trim the footage. You set each video’s title, genre and price. User ratings affect sales, and your camerawork, composition and other creative choices can help earn higher ratings as you pursue the top ranking.

The game includes 17 stages, 34 situations, 18 event scenes, over 800 animations, over 20 minutes of movies, over 35 CGs, five additional costumes, over 110 items and four minigames. It also includes four heroines and over 250,000 characters of text.

Manage Kosuke’s finances

Kosuke must make debt repayments every five days. He earns daily cash from part-time jobs around town while producing videos to raise funds, so you balance his work and business activities.

Characters and story

Kosuke’s business partnership with Nodoka develops into a closer relationship. Nodoka has a boyfriend, Soya Nakayama, who is also her childhood friend; she has not told him about her debt. Three other women become involved in the production business: Maiko Akizuki, Kosuke’s former colleague, secretly has feelings for him and advises him on production; Rem runs a shop selling equipment and items useful for filming; and Yuna, Nodoka’s best friend, worries about her work but feels frustrated that Nodoka will not talk about it.

Kosuke is a former JAV company employee who was fired and then spent his days gambling. He sees an opportunity to make money when he meets Nodoka and decides to start his own company. The game has a stated playtime of 10–20 hours and over 26 hours of voice recordings.
