LET'S TALK DATING

You play as Vee, a videographer working for the biggest porn studio in Crimson City.

Vee’s always been content by herself, but after she stumbles into a high-flying job as a porn star, her life turns upside down. Can she manage her newfound fame and keep her emotions in check while starring with unrequited loves, old friends, and new crushes?

Can Vee's practical attitude and bombshell body win friends and influence people?

It's all up to you!

Across the game’s six narrative chapters, you'll meet, befriend, and contend with a cast of strange individuals built for many unusual purposes.

LOLA

to create is to be human & to be human is to create rite

Lola is a living legend among the machines.

Ever wanted to date your boss? No?

Well, if your boss was Lola you'd think differently.

She's the reigning queen of porn, a symbol of sexual liberation, and the second highest in rank to the world government. She's also Vee's mentor and the head writer at the porn studio she runs.

Recently, Lola’s been struck with a serious case of writer’s block. Are her ideas too bland? Do they even benefit society?

It’s up to Vee to help untangle things for her idol.

MINNIE

>i'm going to snoop around the warehouse for clues, or something.

Minnie. She’s a tough nut to crack.

If there’s a crime or mystery, she’ll be on the scene. Try to get close to her though, and the trail runs cold. She guards her secrets and weaknesses like nuclear launch codes.

All Vee knows about her? She has a soft spot for fruits.

Minnie’s been obsessed with one case for months now, but to solve it she’ll need Vee’s help. Will Vee be able to solve the mystery of the case… and Minnie?

SONJA & ROSIE

keep it in your dungarees rosie the game hasnt even begun yet

#sorry.

Two's company, three's a party!

Meet Vee’s besties and Crimson City’s finest(?) bartenders: Sonja and Rosie. Rosie is a glorified DVD player, and Sonja is a kebab-loving catgirl.

Recently, they’ve been looking to draw new customers into the bar. With her photography skills and keen eye for women in bikinis, can Vee hold together their relationship despite their aging society crumbling at the seams?

Um. I mean, can Vee create the marketing campaign that they need?

CALLIE

THIS IS A CLASSLESS SOCIETY YOU INSANE FUCKWIT_

Callie is Lola's wife and the almighty ruler of the world.

She's got an attitude like a wet cat. If looks could kill, she probably would've had an easier time during her violent uprising. Steer clear unless you want to have your faceplate torn off like cheap plastic. Get very close if you're into that.

If you don't like the way that this futuristic society has turned out, you can blame Callie. If you actually like the way it turned out, you can thank Lola. That's what the locals do, anyway.

MORE ABOUT THE GAME AND ITS DEVELOPMENT

Just what in the hell am I looking at?

Well, DATING OF THE FUTURE is a lot of things.

First and foremost, it's an erotic visual novel. There are sex scenes, and you're intended to enjoy them.

The game is also about romance, though. It's no good for you to have sex with characters you otherwise feel nothing towards.

I find there are a lot of features of visual novel dating sims that don't really contribute positively to the overall immersion and personal experience many intend to evoke. I want to do everything in my power to draw the player into the world and not let them go. I suppose, though, it's up to you whether or not I'll succeed!

So, who do I have to blame for this?

DATING OF THE FUTURE is currently being developed in Ren'Py, with the support of backers on Patreon.

The development team is small. In fact, it's basically just me!

I do the writing, the illustration, and the programming. Thankfully, the game's soundtrack is not by me, but by a real actual musician who can play instruments.

Other than that though, the burden of responsibility rests squarely on my shoulders.

Should we, as a society, support this?

That's up to you, I'm afraid.

The game's development really is owed to all of the people who support me on Patreon, as well as all of the people who approach me in the streets begging for someone to finally make a porn visual novel about machines with sex trauma. I'm fucking working on it, I tell them.

Yet they never listen.

They never listen...

Anyway, if you choose to support the game on Patreon, you'll get access to the game's builds as they're finished. Even just following the Patreon will give you updates on the game's development.
