Explosions, Experiments, and Espionage.

---------------------------------------------------------

Objective:

Numbuh 62's (Anon) assignment should've been a simple one; Testing experimental weaponry, keeping the armory up to standard, and provide security detail to Sector-G, one of the most technologically advanced R&D facilities within the organization . 

SHOULD'VE, being the keyword.

It would have been, if not for the fact that his teammates, while nice enough girls, were either manic, secretive, and/or morally-ambiguous at the *best* of times (and outright bonkers at the *worst* of times).  Keeping up with them is enough to drive the poor guy crazy, almost as crazy as they are.

ALMOST, being the keyword.

Living with the day-to-day insanity of spontaneous explosions, secret cameras, and scientific monstrosities has taken its mental toll on the young operative. However, knowing that he is the only thing standing between his teammates and who knows WHAT they might do to the rest of...well...the world, he does his best to try and keep things normal (Or rather, as normal things can get at Sector-G).

TRY, being the keyword.

---------------------------------------------------------

Current Operatives:

Features:

>An engaging and immersive story, faithfully inspired by the original show.

>Unlockable CG's and Animations.

>Original Soundtrack and Music Player.

>In-Game Codex and Archives that provide additional details about the world and its characters.

>Hours of content for the base game, in addition to Iterative episode releases.

I love it but numbuh 1 was in game?

(+1)

Honestly? One of the best visual novels on the website. I know it's been slow-going, but the quality of art, writing, and code speaks for itself (especially those first 2). Can't wait until the game has enough content for me to *really* sink my teeth into and get really attached to these awesome characters. 

Is cool huh

IDK how to install zip please help

Yes you will

Got any instructions?

(+1)

I download this not sure what to expect but I love this it is very well written and hilarious. I look forward to what will come from the creator. 

Does Rupert's Rampage take place the day after Scout Squabble?

I don’t know if im the only one,  but i find difficult to find all the full cg's in ep 3 scout squabble. I've tried every option but I could only get 8/9 full cg's. How can I get the last one?

I know that one set of full CGs involve 404 choosing either Juice or Milk.  Then having 62 go left where he sees Kourtney in the Laundry Room.  If you chose milk, then Kourtney's washing her top.  If you went with Juice, she's washing her skirt.

(-1)

out of curiosity will there be a chapter where they go on a mission to Bully Island?

(+7)(-1)

i am quite fond of this 404 character

(+2)

I love this game its just perfect i have no faults with it but others might especially those who try to get things taken down just because they dont agree with it but i hope it stays and i have one question is season two going to be in the same download or is it going to be like a separate one called season two

(+1)

it will be in the same download don't worry it will be an update to the game it's not a separate one

Anyone else experiencing a hard crash after the 1st choice now? Like after the SPICER gets trashed, or the room switches to the kitchen? 

(+1)

Really enjoyed this and it definitely feels super KND. Hope to see more as updates come out.

(1 edit) (+3)

Ive left my praise here before, but its worth doing it again for this latest update. An excellently crafted game, that both excels in the adult aspects, and really *feels* like KND, which is something for which I cant give enough kudos. If your on the fence, give it a try. This is a good game!

(+1)(-2)

after playing this version I say I deserved the wait It gave me more than what I asked for so thanks 

and if I say something that I wish in future updates is the call between NUMBuh 202 and NUMBuh 78 after the sector X got defeated I think It will be better for it to be similar to the first call you know with the models of the characters being shown with the Expressions of the characters I hope that my point is cleard 

(+1)(-1)

When I try to download the latest version I always get the "No compatible downloads were found" error. How can I fix this?

(+4)

Now the first season is done I will say this I really enjoying this game. 

As big fan of K. N. D. I really appreciate the forethought that comes to this fan visual novel. It feels like something straight from the show but with NSFW twist from the tech and additional characters and comedy.

Having the main setting as one of the R&D department is really  ingenious on a creative standpoint, the fun of K. N. D. Was 2x4 tech and again you nail it.

And I do apologize for being a bummer about the last update I didn't mean to pile on like that.

With all that said congrats for your team for making a great visual novel and look forward to seeing other projects from you guys in the future like that MLP game. 

A additional thing I do like how every character musical Themeh as a name. 

That just neat and always cool.

(+4)

I'm a little confused here this game shows up in the NSFW area or at least under the adult tag but it looks SFW from the pics and how the description sounds.  Which is it NSFW or SFW?  It looks like it will be fun either way but some clarity would be nice.  

(+2)

There is no sexual content in this game.

(2 edits) (+2)(-1)

Heh. Yeah, good point. The most "NSFW" stuff you'll see is bras, panties, and I think you see nipples twice. And one of the characters uses a shower head to pleasure herself. I believe, beyond that, that's it. (EDIT: New update also sees an ass, so...) Seems like a waste of someone like SoulCentinel, but I can't say I haven't been enjoying the game all the same.


But yeah. It's marked NSFW merely for the ecchi content contained therein. If it weren't for those things, it would definitely pass as a SFW parody.

OK thanks for the clarification. 

(+2)(-17)

is there an FAQ or something about the lack of sex? This was too soft core to pay money towards.

I think a lot of the answers regarding that have been limited to dev interactions and...I think I read there was a Discord? I dunno the specifics, but there HAS been discussion on it.

Whether said discussion has been positive or not has been inconclusive.

Like I said back when we had the Discord server: N.O.V.E.L. will not go past ecchi for the most part.

(-2)

Not to be petulant or demanding, but could you add in something like that in the description?

(+8)(-1)

(+12)

Alright y’all, the test group did their thing, we fixed up what needed fixing, and work finally chilled out enough for me to say—the update is dropping in a couple of hours, along with a devlog!

Also, my bad for the unexpected delay. Had some hiccups with communication after my Discord account got nuked, but we’re back on track now. I’ll go into more detail in the devlog soon.

TL;DR: Update’s done. Devlog coming soon.

(+2)(-1)

Thank you big man very cool.

(+2)

thanks for your work we appreciate it this game means a lot for us so that's why we appreciate your work

(1 edit) (+2)

Oh magic conch! Will anondive ever post the final update to season 1?

(+9)

don't worry man, I swear on EVERYBODY'S life (except mine) that the update is tonight

(+3)

(+1)

And correct you are. 

(1 edit) (+1)(-1)

people calm yourselves the reality is game always gonna have delays because nothing ever goes right close to release

(+6)

At this point I'm 100% convinced that people are just memeing, no one here is mad or something.

Hey y’all, Irrelevant here!

So, real talk—this week has been absolutely wild, especially today. Between IRL commitments (Valentine's Day and all), the test group still combing over things, and... Oh yea! My Discord account getting nuked outta nowhere, we’ve definitely had our hands full. Because of all that, we’re pushing the update back to tomorrow night (2/16/25) at 8PM EST.

Appreciate y’all’s patience, and we’ll see you tomorrow!

It's over... (Shitposting aside, take your time. Real world responsibilities come first. Appeasing random internet people comes last.)

(+1)

Thanks for the heads up!  I appreciate the response to the delay.

Dont worry about it friend, I appreciate all of your hard work and hope you have a great day, thank you for the transparency!

thanos from avengers endgame is kneeling down with a sword

Honestly, I'm surprised you even have (had?) a discord account, seeing how insanely trigger-happy discord mods are with the bans.

I suggest alternate mode of communication.

very excited!

is everything alright with the update let me guess you have more bugs to deal with? ok take your time

it may just be the itchio servers being difficult

(+3)

Eagerly awaiting the next update. Stumbled upon this during its early development and was very much looking forward to it's finished product and I couldn't be happier to rediscover it. I really appreciate the slow burn moments between the cast and numbuh 62. Keep up the good work.

Just downloaded newest update, but the game keeps crashing on the recording. Is anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

(+3)

Hi Dev, I'm here to express my love for this incredible game, I've never been good with words, but I still want to come here to say that your game is simply perfect, thank you for creating something so incredible.

(+5)

Hi Dive and friends. I created an account to leave this comment. I'm absolutely amazed by the content you've made, and after reading the most recent updates, am sad that haters are gonna hate. I check here monthly to see if there any updates, and absolutely love this project.  Outside of Twitter, is there another way to see how updates are going. Patreon? Discord? How can a common fan best support your project? 

Can't wait to see what comes next! Have a good day.

(+5)

Since the game's more episodic, how many seasons do you guys plan on making before the game's truly finished? 

(+2)

Bueno me encanto el juego está muy bueno la verdad desbloquee todo y debo decir que está genial me encanta la serie.

Bueno espero el nuevo capitulo jajaja 

(2 edits) (+4)(-4)

Okay.  I know this is a repolished season one with extra content.  And it was nice to go through it again.  Didn't mind the extra scenes either.

One thing that bothers me though?  Why merge the first three episodes?  It was FINE as it was.  Even if the first three episodes are shorter.  Your episode 2 title "X vs. G 2" no longer makes sense because you no longer have an "X vs. G."   Furthermore, you still say that "Episode V has ended" after going through "Scout Squabble."  I know you wanted the episodes to be the same length, but that's gonna throw off longtime viewers (like me) who are used to seeing five episodes of your Visual Novel, not three.

If there's anything you should change about this it's definitely this!  That and you have missing backgrounds when you try to go through the archives...and...I can't find those comics that everyone was talking about.

Been trying the update. So far so good. Some of the lines of dialogue need to have a smaller font to fit the screen though. Otherwise they go past it and become unreadable.


Also, if it is not too hard to do, I'd like to ask for a way to rename saves. There are just a lot of good scenes in the game that I want to see over and over again. A named save file will make that easier.

(2 edits) (+4)(-2)

I find the game like one week ago after finding Canterlot Exchange so for me all was new content lmao, and gotta say:

Firstly im so sorry for the drama, make a full game with a small team working to deliver something so cool and polished must be hard, i hope you all keep having fun making the game after this

Secondly, IT WAS SO GOOD, the game got the spirit of KND just right, every character is funny and interesting, the art style is pretty charming, i got very invested in seeing more about the game now, the soundtrack is full of bangers hello!? (Especially Vol 3, Pastime and Pastel Bubbles has no right to go that hard)

Look i understand waiting a year for a update and then for no content at all to appear is gonna pretty much suck, trust me I know how that feels.

But we are talking about four people (correct me if i am wrong) singlehandedly, writing a story,coding a game and making art plus music.

Give them a break, they been taking time from their lives to give you FREE CONTENT.

So please, be a little open minded that life doesn't give a crap about your plans, and they specially give a crap about it if you are working on something and not in a good way.

It's not gonna be an easy ride.

Coding sucks, i know this because I coded some mods and other stuff.

So i understand that this was probably not what they wanted to give us in the end, but they pulled a effort to at least deliver us something and they made something to help our experience with a game they made free for us.

So what i am saying is give the guys or gals developing the game a break, saying shit about them is not gonna solve anything, and if you didn't like it?, well the rating button is here so use it.

Thanks Operation Novel team, looking forward to what you create, not even if it take 84 years.

There seems to be multiple problems with unlocking extras. I used every possible dialog option, but the following didn't get unlocked:

* The comics

* I have only 8/9 of the "Full CG's" in the Scout Squabble episode. I have the "Kourtney as cheerleader", "404 in scout uniform", "Kourtney changing clothes", the 3 pics with 62 in the janitor's closet and the 2 final pics with Betsy. Not sure if there's really any missing.

* Another user below mentioned: "Kuddlefury links in the "Order of the furry paw" causes my game to crash." - I have no idea what that's supposed to be.

On the plus side, I have the 4th episode, which I guess was meant with [Readacted]. I also have 8 recordings, which is probably also the complete batch.

Maybe you could make a version with everything unlocked available for download.

(+3)

thanks and im sorry for being blunt

(+5)(-9)

Glad to see we’re finally getting a new chapter.  Two years was not worth having a truncated season one with just some minor extra content.


Can’t wait to see Rupert’s Rampage at last.

(+9)(-6)

“Hey, Dive. Hey, Irrelevant. Thanks for giving us more free stuff.”


You’re welcome.

(+2)(-4)

This is the internet.

ALL of the stuff is "free stuff", if you are capable of finding a proper piracy site.

Just saying. This game being "free" doesn't free it from the scrutiny.

(+1)(-2)

can anyone tell me how to unlock other gallery content i just finish and they say i have unlock other but unlock nothing no comics redacted or music any help here 

(+2)

go back through the game and choose the other options that you didn't the first time around. that should get you basically everything.
