⚠️ STRICT CONTENT WARNING (18+ ADULT CONTENT)

🛑 MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY (18+)

Class of '09 is an explicit, unfiltered dark comedy visual novel intended strictly for adult audiences. It contains:

  • Extreme coarse language & offensive humor
  • Substance abuse (illicit drugs, prescription pills, alcohol abuse)
  • Severe mental health themes (depression, suicide references, self-harm)
  • Sexual harassment & predatory behavior depicted for satire
  • Dark, cynical social commentary

Please ensure you meet the legal age of majority in your region (18+) and are comfortable with harsh dark comedy before playing or downloading this game. Discretion is strongly advised.

🎮 What is Class of '09?

Class of '09 (and its sequel, Class of '09: The Re-Up) is a critically acclaimed narrative comedy visual novel set in an American high school during the late 2000s.

Unlike traditional visual novels where you read silent text blocks, Class of '09 plays like an interactive audio drama:

  • 100% Full Professional Voice Acting: Every single character (Nicole, Jecka, Emily, Kelly, Jeffrey, Coach Colby, Mr. White, etc.) and every line of dialogue is completely voiced by top-tier voice actors.
  • Branching Storylines: Packed with dozens of high-stakes social choices, resulting in over 15 unique, wildly chaotic endings.
  • Ultra-Low PC Specs: Built on Ren'Py, meaning it runs smoothly at 60 FPS on any budget PC, older laptop, or integrated graphics chip without lagging.

🔊 What Does This Mod Do?

While the voice acting makes the story great to listen to, blind and visually impaired players previously could not navigate the silent image menus or know what choices they were picking.

Class of '09 Access bridges every visual element directly to your screen reader:

  • Direct NVDA & Tolk Client: Communicates instantaneously with NVDA through nvdaControllerClient, with native fallback to Tolk (JAWS / SuperNova) and Windows SAPI5.
  • Spoken Branching Decisions: Automatically announces choice menus and options. Arrow keys step through choices with spoken feedback (e.g. "Choice 1 of 2: HUMOR THE SCHOOL TOUR"), and pressing C repeats choices anytime.
  • Live Dialogue & Character Names: Speaks speaker names and text in real-time. Press H to repeat the last line, or D to toggle dialogue TTS (voice acting only vs voice + speech).
  • Accessible Menus & Save Slots: Silent graphical buttons on the main menu are replaced with accessible buttons and numeric shortcuts (1–5). Save and load slots announce date/time and empty status.
