The game's story is primarily driven by player choices, with a focus on engaging narrative elements and character archetypes, particularly in the dating sim aspect.

The inclusion of a robotic companion adds depth to the gameplay, allowing for inventory management and relationship dynamics.

stability

The game's stability is a significant concern, with players reporting frequent freezes that require restarting every few minutes or after a couple of battles. Additionally, the lack of community support and guides suggests a limited player base, which may contribute to the overall experience being hindered by technical issues.
- “I wish the game had more of a community; from what I see on Steam, it seems really small and flopped on release. There are no guides anywhere, and when I look this game up on Google, it doesn't show up. Maybe it's because you have to restart the game every 5 minutes or after two space battles because it freezes.”
- “The game punishes you for trying to pursue more than one girl at a time by making them both ghost you, which is frustrating. It would be better if I could earn their trust back in subsequent games.”
- “I wish I received more rewards for successfully finishing the dates. Some money would help because the dates are so expensive.”
