You should be able to use it even though it can't be verified, I would search google for the how to for all that. If not you can always use a virtual computer program and run it as windows or linux that should bypass the macOS and allow you to play games outside of it. Hope you find a solution, its a pretty awesome game.
It's the same with every AVN on a mac, have you not played any before?
when you get that warning, click Cancel. open System Settings, go to Privacy & Security, scroll down to where it mentions The Headmaster, click Open Anyway. Use Password, then Open.
Got me there. Still a great game either way, not many manage to write characters well, especially with the amount in this one. I'll be sure to awaken from my hibernation twice a year to play the updates.
"From version 0.13.2 onwards we will no longer be releasing a dedicated android version. Please use the windows version on Joiplay. Instructions on how to do this are provided"...as per the line directly above the comment section. They even have a link.
Wow! What an awesome light BDSM game packed with young attractive girls and sprinkled with an occasional MILF! One, if not THE, best corruption and harem games out there, with a ton of missions and storylines. The graphics are not top notch, but they get the job done. Highly recommended
Maxine's arc was done later, you need a lot of other stuff to be finished:
Debbie has to be a prefect already.
You also have to spy on Rachel (twice), Cassandra, and Amy on nights after giving them private punishments.
I had a situation on one playthrough where Amy didn't advance because Cassandra misbehaved in class, and I guess advancement took precedence somehow. It also may have been me screwing something up. Took me a couple weeks of gametime before I realized Amy hadn't advanced.
I don't know if there is on for the new stuff, as I don't use them first time through, but there used to be a link for it around here someplace. f95 had the same one up as well. Google will know.
Update: looked around for one, but did not see a v16, the newest was v15 beta. It is an extremely extensive document, hundreds of pages, so I can't imagine it was abandoned. Might be available only in Patreon now (you'd have to ask elsewhere) but even then, the final version of v15 would probably be out.
I wish this can be one steam all the characters are eighteen years old is because they are small boobs/flat chests people assume these are lolita characters there petite woman that exist.
Steam would allow a game all about a character sticking his fingers in girls butt because I bet that man paid that $100 once fee because I like to have itch games publish on steam because the updates are easy.
Some of the shared assets and tools that allow games like this to be made at all are not, last I looked, allowed on Steam at all. Until that changes, don't count on it.
If I were a small-shop dev, I wouldn't do it anyway. I worked in the Valley in a legal capacity, and even for me, it was nearly impossible to get an actual person at Steam, even when it was them that approached us. I have to think they treat small-shop games like this (adult or otherwise) the same way Apple and Google treat app submissions: you show it to them, they own it.
Have reached the end of Hostess with the mostess, however when Priti walks by her in the cafeteria after standing up to Harriet Cassandra is still mean and even suggest that they harass her.. which does not seem like her new improved kinder and gentler more caring for persona
I have an issue with Amy as well (I searched before posting) I have it where I caught her and Tai but failed to get the event at night with her and Tai and now she doesn't ever show up doing anything bad, my discipline level is 150 so I doubt she'll show up again meaning I can't train Potts, meaning I can't get the rest of Mary and Louise content either. Also means getting 12 influence, meaning I can't do Maxine Charity event.
Have had something like this happen very early in the game, where Amy runs into MC in the hall, MC teaches an afternoon class, Cassandra misbehaves, and Amy's level doesn't increase after punishment, so even though quest updates, you need to get run over in the hall again to advance.
I know you have just finished updating the game to v0.16.2 and released a new version to the public 8 months ago but I was just wondering when you plan to release a new version to the public since it’s been a while. great game btw, I finished it about 3 years ago and came back around 7 months ago to finish v0.15.3.
Why grades don't increase? they are stagnant at 50 both he and the discipline, so I can't continue in the story, help please. I need punishment with my own hands for sequence the story
You need to complete Ruth's quest to advance to chapter 2 and increase discipline above 50. Make sure to read the emails in the recycle bin of the headmaster's computer.

Sir, haven't you tried making an Android version, namely by separating the archive.rpa and launchergame.apk files, it looks like that can overcome the limit that occurs on Android due to the game size exceeding 2gb+.
The problem with the android version is that I inevitably have to spend a lot of time making it, and even more time dealing with people having trouble installing it. Separating the installer and archives would potentially make both those problems significantly worse. The question is whether I spend a disproportionate amount of my resources working on an apk and dealing with tech support for a small fraction of my audience. Or, whether I focus my efforts on making new content for majority playing the windows/mac versions.
That said, we have been looking into various solutions, including an a small apk installer and automated downloading of the large image and video archives from a dedicated server. I even had a guy working on it for me before he completely ghosted me. At some point I expect there will be a apk version again, however, it is not my priority right now.
I'm stuck on the pride and president quest, specifically the part telling me to advance lucy's quest, whenever I speak to Nurse Kate there are no options, I've completed all other quests that don't require me to advance lucy's, can someone please help I've been stuck on this for days
Keep doing other quests (specifically Rachel's or Priti's, I think). I don't remember exactly what triggers it, but eventually the nurse will come to you on her own at the start of a weekday and will then teach a sex ed lesson the next time you teach a class. After that, you'll be able to advance Lucy's quest.
You also have to complete Priti's quest before you can advance that one anyway if I'm remembering right.
I followed the JoiPlay instructions but the game systematically crash when loading. It used to work on 13.2 of your game. Others VNs with Ren'Py have also no issues running with JoiPlay. Seems im not alone with this issue. Any ideas? Thanks
Works with Ren'py plugin 8.2.3 from Joiplay Patreon
Just like to say that tonight at bar trivia, I pulled "who was the first woman in Greek mythology" out of my beer-filled head (to the amazement of my teammates) not because I took Greek Mythology years ago, but because I laughed my way through the play in this game several times. This is educational stuff, and should be mandatory.
Hey I've been trying to download the game on Android for a while and it's not working , I get to the joiplay loading screen but after a few seconds it closes I'm sure I'm doing it right because I've used the same system to play other games but for some reason this one isn't working out
Hello,when i try to download the game it crashes after 1-2 minutes. For information the ad blocker, pop-up are disabled and i have a good internet connection, i am on my 5g and i am at 494.89 Mb/s which is considered an excellent internet connection. I am trying to download from an Android mobile and I have tried from 2 different web browsers.
Hello, i played this game recently, then i reached the finish, Wonderful game btw, If an update has been released, how do i update my current game to not lose my progress??
The safest way would be to install the updated game (when it is released) to a different location. Then you can try and figure out how to port your saves, which, while I haven't had to do it yet, I understand to be a quite trivial process.
ETA: the save files appear to be in the <HEADMASTER>/game/saves/
Saves will transfer automatically (they are backed up elsewhere on your computer). Just download the latest version and start playing. If you are using the itch app the process is even easier and you can just update the game to the new version.
Samantha is one of the main stars of the next update.
Hello, I hope you can help me. I really like this game where you can play an active roll and not this "light novel, only reading" scenario. Are there any other adult games this? Where you can play active, or run around.
If you want high levels of interactivity, I can recommend Ravager, Third Crisis and Seeds of Chaos. All three are substantially more interactive than the Headmaster. Third Crisis also has the bonus of being completely finished.
Fair warning, though: all three also go hard on the kink (yes, more so than the Headmaster). For some reason the more interactive games also tend to be the ones with the more extreme kinks.
I can also second Rusty's recommendations of Corrupted Kingdoms and Harem Hotel. That said, the interactivity in Harem Hotel is kinda fake interactivity. You can move around and choose what order to do things in, but ultimately everything plays out almost exactly the same no matter what you do. And Corrupted Kingdoms is somewhere between that and the three I listed above.
Eternum, Once in a Lifetime and Ripples are all good games but are traditional visual novels - you make a few choices here and there but there's not a ton of interactivity.
Sadly these games Zou mentioned are not my cup of tea.
I more like games like the headmaster, like mentioned or if you know Scarlett Mansion is nice, Solvalley town or HS Tutor with some little interaction and fast traveling and so on...
Read the dev logs, the author explains why they dont make apks anymore. If you have an android you can use joyplay from the app store. You'll download the game on the device and unzip it. Then youll add the game to joyplay. Also make sure you get the renpy plugin too. I think it tells you to get it. You can google something like add renpy game to joyplay android. To transfer your safes, you'll have to plugin your phone to the laptop to transfer, or you can use something like dropbox or another cloud storage to transfer. Up to you. But in the future, please try to do research on your own. Tends to be bad manners asking for help with no solutions you've tried. tho there are usually people like me wholl help regardless. xD
woah I love overlord and I noticed the overlord posters. Damn I can't believe how that pleases me. Is this a coincidence or perhaps the one that put that up is a fan?
I love this game. This is really great. but I think i found a small bug;
I purchased the charity mug, the dildo collection and the butt plug tail at the same time. only the mug was delivered, and a rebuy was not possible. so i could not proceed Rachels story unless i load a older savegame and purchased each item itself.

I can't play it on Mac because it is suspected malware.
"
“TheHeadmaster” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware.
You should be able to use it even though it can't be verified, I would search google for the how to for all that. If not you can always use a virtual computer program and run it as windows or linux that should bypass the macOS and allow you to play games outside of it.

Great game, but suffers from yearly public updates
Twice a year, thank you very much.
Ignore the moron. It's better to do a good job, than a quick one.
(just ask ANY woman alive if I'm not correct)
haha
Got me there. Still a great game either way, not many manage to write characters well, especially with the amount in this one. I'll be sure to awaken from my hibernation twice a year to play the updates.
I installed the game on android using JoiPlay but when I try to start it it closes by itself. Help?
It literally says in the description it's no longer supported on mobile devices
I have a question will you ever make it on android
"From version 0.13.2 onwards we will no longer be releasing a dedicated android version. Please use the windows version on Joiplay. Instructions on how to do this are provided"...as per the line directly above the comment section. They even have a link.

Help please, i cant do the second task of the "Pride and president", i finish al the other tasks, when i go to the dorms Maxine isnt in the dorm.
"check what maxine is up to in the dorms at night"
Maxine's arc was done later, you need a lot of other stuff to be finished:
Debbie has to be a prefect already.

is there an updated guide anywhere for this i have one but its v0.10.1 could someone tell me were to find one or link it thanks
I don't know if there is on for the new stuff, as I don't use them first time through, but there used to be a link for it around here someplace. f95 had the same one up as well. Google will know.

PLEASE RELEASE MORE CONTENT HERE. GREAT STORY AND VN
Good news, next update comes out on itch September 19th (Per the Discord announcement)
that's great, i was actually wondering if the next update was scheduled since this is one of the ones that despite being slow is reliable.
I really loves these characters, how can I create an own character for me?
I wish this can be one steam all the characters are eighteen years old is because they are small boobs/flat chests people assume these are lolita characters there petite woman that exist.
Steam would allow a game all about a character sticking his fingers in girls butt because I bet that man paid that $100 once fee because I like to have itch games publish on steam because the updates are easy.

Shouldn't need Amy to do anything at (lol) 150.
We all want Tia added to the character roster.

Man, this really needs more attention and patrons. Great game but unfortunately it takes a long time to update.
Feel free to contribute...
