Good day everyone, while we finishing plot for next part of update and polishing other parts, want to share with you my vision about dates and "dating update".
So, right now it's a way to grind lewd and friendship hearts, where you call some one with phone and asking for a date choosing the place. Which girl has her own preference about place during current season, so if you guess you got bonus score to final amount of earned friendship, also you can make one choise during the date which gave you additional points(or opposite). Simple and easy, but not too interesting I suppose. Moreover it takes a gift slot so you have to choose to give a gift or go to date.
As a remaster work I want to adjust dating mechanic. So each girl will still has her prefered place to go, but during the date you will have to raise here "mood" score which will be converted to friendship directly after the date. In way to increase it you can choose right place, give additional gift(yeah the dates will not take gift slot anymore, but there will be only one date per one character in week) and play conversation minigame. When you will reach certain amount of "mood" you can flirt to raise lewd hearts and stats of charcter. But all action will take certain amount of time and you will have to manage it to succed the date in 3 hours(or more, I'm not sure right now about final balance).
It will also affect on interactions in sex minigame. Perfectly we also wanted to add addiational story events connected to dates, but I can not promise anything right now.
All this new "dates" mechanics I hope to implement this year in parallel with girls stories updates(like "Abigail update"), so stay tuned!
Thank you for your suppot and good luck!
