I sadly can't post a comment on the game's page so I'm typing here but !!! I played this after seeing one of your posts on Twitter + decided to check through your profile for your list of created games.
I really really really adored this game. I started off with Jamie/Orion's route and wasn't entirely too sure what to expect, but going through and seeing the end was a really pleasant surprise. After that, it was really fun going through and seeing the different combos of 'first dates' and how each character differed depending on who you matched them with. I loved how the pair kept trying to be in-character and sometimes struggling with that-- the portrayal of their relationship was seriously sweet and I loved reading through the planning notes as well.
Seriously adored the writing too! The charm it gave off made it really easy to get absorbed into gameplay and the humor sprinkled throughout was really really enjoyable. Overall, this game was such a mood lifter and I'm so glad I had the chance to play it! 100% worth the time, I love short games and I spent a good few hours playing through-- I'd definitely want to come back to this again.
Oh, and along with the writing, the art and the music were both great, too! first date/can't relate is just really really sweet all around and had the perfect touch of humor and care with its wholesomeness. I love this and thank you <'3
