My Dating Agency Demo

I ADORED this demo!! This is basically one of my dream game concepts, honestly - matchmaking agency, but the clients are romanceable! I really enjoyed getting to know all the characters and their personalities (particularly Atlas, would love to see him as an LI in the future!!). I also really liked the character customizer - the clothing and hair options were especially beautiful! I look forward to seeing what is in store for all the characters and the MC (and her old company)!

Also is there an Instagram/Twitter/Mailing list or something where we can follow the development of the game? I'd love to be informed of the progress/when it is finished!

so i suppose im a tad confused... albeit very enamored with the premise of this game! not to give you an impression i disliked it or anything! im just wondering, are we, as the mc, potentially romancing our clients? or are we just there to offer friendship and advice?

i really enjoyed this demo, btw. very very fun and great writing here.

hi !! loved the game, just wanted to say that there is a bug where it keeps going back to deans consultation after the credits and then to credits just to go back to dean again over and over, had to close the game completely to exit sadly. Love the characters and trying to match them up <33

I wasn't exactly sure what to expect playing this game but I absolutely ADORED this concept and the way it's implemented. I got very invested in everyone's story and kept wishing there was more. There's a diversity in the characters to keep things interesting, each one dealing with a different kind of thing and requiring a different approach. The interactions felt so realistic and human. The MC really exudes this calm energy, I would trust her. I also love how things are not black and white but there is room for compromise and negotiation. I loved the character creator, too. My MC looks so adorable I can't stop looking at her, it makes me happy XD Plus I'm very interested in the main arc even though it's only hinted at. Long story short, I'm very invested and can't wait to see more!

Maybe the text could be slightly larger.

I enjoyed this demo, the game felt so cozy! The characters were so diverse and human, with their own personalities, tastes, worries, problems, etc. and it was cool that everybody had their individual soundtrack.

I liked every client but Rachel was definitely my favorite since I relate to her the most. The highlight for me was the banter between MC and Atlas every now and then (I love him!). I'm curious to find out more about the MC too! 

This game is so cute! I really like the depth that the characters have. 

This is a super cute game! I love the wholesome vibes and how the characters feel like real people. My faves are Zaid and Cliff so far but Dean is also really sweet. I'd love to be able to play more! It would also be cool to be able to spend more time with Atlas, all the characters seem so fun I just want to learn more about them!

This game is so so cute! I love the concept, and I adore Atlas. All of the different characters are so warm and human, even when sharper or more hotheaded. Working through the real issues is so nice, and I love that you can make any of the three options work, though some seem better than others. I have had a few glitches, like people saying lines that don't match their words (usually Rachel), Zaid clipping the desk when he fades out, and once it gave me the credits suddenly, I was playing Dean's Stella route with none of the keys and an MC who set him with Lila? So, a little buggy, but largely very very good, and I really like the art. Art can sometimes make or break a game for me, and i love this art a lot.

Oh this one was SUPER fun. I really enjoyed the concept and getting to know all of the clients! They're all varied and unique with their own quirks and issues. I liked the fact that I could find something that I liked and disliked about all of them, which really made them feel well-rounded and, well, human! There's also just so much variety in the dialogue and I think the voice actors were a great choice and killed it with their roles from what I've seen.

My personal favorite client so far is Zaid because while he is definitely rough around the edges and mildly prone to running over my consultant on the way to his seat, I personally see Zaid as just a big clumsy puppy that so desperately wants to be loved (๑˃́ꇴ˂̀๑) And I love that for him. I want this guy to find that and be happy like nothing else. I am probably a piddling fraction of his overall mass, but I want to pick him up like he's a small dog and hug him and tell him it's gonna be alright and that sure yeah I think he could stand to slow down a tad but I know he's doing his best and just auuugh (,,> ω<,,)

(That said, Atlas definitely has my heart a little bit. I love the banter between him and the MC aaaaaaaaaaaaaa <3)

Additionally, I love that MDA doesn't shy away from heavier topics and attempts to handle them with care and advocates for open communication. I'll try to keep it spoiler-free, but I definitely had a few moments of, "YES! PLEASE TALK ABOUT IT! LIKE HUMAN BEINGS DO!" and "AND IF THEY'RE MEAN OR JUDGMENTAL TO YOU ABOUT IT, I WILL PERSONALLY BEHEAD THEM okay well that's an exaggeration but I will certainly have a professional but stern word with them and they will not come out unscathed (╬ ಠωಠ)و"

There is one little thing that bothered me a bit, and please correct me if I'm wrong about this! (⁎˃ᆺ˂) I often found myself needing to load previous saves to review information on clients and prospective dates, and started wishing there was a way to access and review client/date profiles or information. Again, if there is a way to do that and I am just looking in the wrong places, please disregard this bit! I understand that what is currently out is a demo and submissions for game jams, so I also understand that certain features may not be implemented yet; it was just something I found myself doing often while considering matches. For example, I was once considering a client's specification regarding ages, but then I couldn't remember how old the client was and had to look around for that information. So I thought it'd be worth bringing it up (x ω x;; )

Anyways! I'm very excited for what y'all have in store for the future and will keep tabs on this project (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))) You've all worked very hard and should be proud of what you've achieved!

I LOVE RACHEL I KINDA RELATE TO HER
