The game is entirely touch/mouse based and we hope it’s easy to pick up for anyone with a passing knowledge of how dating apps work, but just in case:

  • Tap on a character’s name or description to hear them out loud
  • Tap on their profile pic or the blue “i” to get a bit more info about them
  • Drag their pic left or tap ❌ to discard the selected character and move on to the next one
  • Drag their pic right or tap 💚 to indicate you like them
  • After liking a character, you can choose to meet them immediately or keep browsing new profiles
  • After browsing all profiles, you’ll see a chat screen with the last message each liked character sent you
  • Tap on a character to select or deselect them
  • Press the button on the bottom of the screen to date the selected character
  • After agreeing to date someone, tap on the main text to stop or resume voice narration

I loved basically everyone's stories except Chris. Seriously, fuck this douche (no, not literally), but other than that it's a great game. :D

All I want is for Arthur to hug me and tell me encouraging things and say I have a strong character

(-1)

Awww you absolutely do! And if Arthur weren't so disciplined about social distancing, I'm sure he'd be hugging you right now.

Bro, this is friggin cool! good job, great art. Wish it was longer, though! I want more!!

Thank you so much! We're considering some new projects in the same vein, but we can't promise anything.

Wow, this really is a cut above the usual smut itch.io offers in the romance section. Colour me impressed!

I am troubled by your username and thankful for your comment!

I am not entirely surprised, but I am pleased you can still take the compliment regardless :)

Anarcho-francoism, is like anarcho-falangism but with a free market economy, catholic social values and no anti-semitism.

Personally I am a great fan of Franco, and feel he is one the most defamed people in history: basically nothing that is taught about him nowadays holds up to scrutiny. The socialists were destroying the country and needed to be brought in-line. I wish we would get a new Franco that would lead Spain to exit the EU and become a great nation again.

Is too interesant, but it has a bug with the audio, sometimes the audio don´t play.

was that the sherlock bbc music during one of the dates?? because the timing of the music was seriously hilarious, it made me chuckle

Thank you so much!

Argentina contra Alemania en 2014. Brillante.

I love the concept and a lot of the content is really funny and well written. I hope not to hurt any feelings when I say this, but... the narration is really bad. Really could have done without it; it takes away from the overall experience of the game. I found I had to mute altogether, which was a bummer because I really like the background music.

It won't load. Advice?

Strange! It loads just fine on my end. You could try a different browser, or a different device (going to davidtmarchand.itch.io/element-date on any laptop, tablet, or phone should load the game).

This is cute, it has lots of personality and got me interested in the universe. I was gonna say that there's not a lot of content but there's probably plenty in Element:Space.

Hey thanks! Yeah, the other game has tons of extra story. It's just more “fate of the galaxy” related.
