Hey y'all! It's been a minute! We wanted to tell you about what to expect from Date Me Dammit in 2024.
First, an explanation. Last year we were playing through ANIMAL LOVER, as you may recall. We had most of the game recorded, but Mackenzie got a new computer and also needed to switch editing software. Once the latter was taken care of, we discovered that pretty much all of the audio from those sessions is gone. And while it's been a while since we recorded it, it's hard to redo something like that and make the spontaneity of the humor for DMD still work. So, unfortunately, it's joining Dragon Age: Origins in the DMD scrap heap.
Animal Lover is an absolutely adorable game, though, and if you want to find out what happens, check it out for yourself! Listen. Romance Frankie. Frankie is clearly the best boy. We won't* judge if you don't romance Frankie, but you should definitely play Animal Lover.
In the meantime, we're starting out our 2024 run by debuting a new game and a new format. To spice some things up, we'll be swapping out between the regular Date Me Dammit cast playing a game and then a game played with our side feature team: Date Me, Dammit! Love Never Allies. This is where Maq (often along with Annie) invites a friend to play a date sim together. Our first game back will be a Love Never Allies game, with Maq and Annie featuring guest player Anna Emmaline, who runs Jemjammer!
And the game we'll be playing is one by a writer near(?) and dear(??) to our hearts, Michaela Laws, creator of such fine games as Seduce Me: The Otome and Seduce Me 2: The Demon War. This time around we'll be playing Love and Romance - A Study of Intimacy, a VN wherein a romance novel writer learns how to write smut. Sort of. Listen, it's..... well, bless her heart.
New episodes of Date Me Dammit begin on the weekend of April 5th! We're so excited to bring you more games about kissing. Join us, won't we?
