Love Stone

Love Stone - The Dating Sim Fighter is an Dating Sim fighting game made by KingofFiction, as one of the thirty-one projects working on DeviantArt.

Synopsis
A unseen protagonist (you) along with their sister are invited to an academy called “Aisuru School” on an Island called “Kokoro Island”, a holiday-like place where there are many attractions along with a school with a single classroom.

But the protagonist notices all the other students happen to be female.

All the girls happen to be those the protagonist has met in the past thanks to traveling over the world many years prior who have all fallen for the protagonist and upon seeing their old friend on that island; the teacher declares the sport known as the “Love Game” will commence and all the girls in the class (except for the protagonists sister) all have special gems called “Love Stones” which give the girls the ability to transform into certain “types” of girls depending on the protagonists choice as long as they impress said protagonist enough.

The rules are simple: The protagonist has to pick one of the girls along with the “form” they’ll take and all the other girls must impress said protagonist with their own take on that “form” which is the protagonist “type” of girl and thus must defeat the girl the protagonist picked.

If a girl loses during the Love Game they’ll be stripped of their Love Stone and won’t be allowed to participate anymore for the remainder of the Love Game.

Whoever the winner is will become the protagonist’s lover...but the results might be different.

Even if they become the type of girl the protagonist prefers...is it all worth changing themselves to please the protagonist or will the protagonist will love for them for who they TRULY are? It’s up to the protagonist alone to make up that decision.

All the girls want the protagonist and are willing to fight over said protagonist but the protagonist can only pick one girl to stick with them in their hotel room for a year unless another girls beats them to take her place but even with a winner...will the protagonist love the girl for who they truly are after seeing a certain side of her? They’ll have to wait and see...

Gameplay
There are TWO segments of gameplay, the fighting and the dating. Let’s go over the fighting first.

The fighting is similar to one may know from Arc System Works, such as Blazblue or Persona 4 Arena, in fact the style would be 2D animated drawn sprites as opposed to 3D models a this game will have that anime look to it.

There is are standard moves, off the ground moves, ground bounces, wall bounces etc.

But there is a special function. On the bottom corner of the screen is an empty heart shaped jewel which is a “Love Stone” and in story it can only be filed with the protagonist’s love for them reaches maximum. To fill it up, the player has to make sure the girl lands a number of hits, because after all when a girl impresses the protagonist so much it makes their heart beat and set their eyes on that girl and therefore with all the attention on her; the more her Love Stone’s power increases so the player has to make sure to keep landing good hits and combos and not take a hit, otherwise the protagonist might go to the opponent.

But what happens when the Love Stone is filled? They become their “Love Form” which is super form that has the girls transform, both their clothing, bodies and personality.

Each girl has a total of FIVE different forms the player can chose from which will be their permanent option for the remainder of the arcade mode and a fight and each form as its own set of moves.

The purpose of the different forms is to test the protagonists “type” of girls. Everyone has a certain type of girl and when picked; all the other girls will copy that type too in order to pleas the protagonist.

The girls can handle a fight as their regular selves but they don’t have any “Super Moves” as their default forms, only their Love Forms have super moves.

With the Love Stone affect in play they will be invincible from all attacks by the opponent for a small period of time. But when the Love Stone goes empty from using up all the energy for the super moves; the girl is reverted back to her old self so they player has to use their time to build it up again.

As said there are five forms to pick from and each one has their own properties in a fight.

Cute: The most balanced out all forms, ranging from speed, strength and defence. In this form the girls become almost superhero-like personas.

Cool: In this form; the girls become a tomboy version themselves and attack with hard hitting moves but is slower.

Beautiful: In this form; the girls become a graceful version of themselves and attacks are much quicker but weaker.

Motherly: In this form; the girls age up to become mother figures. The weakest strength wise and mainly focuses on healing but their love to protect the protagonist like a protective mother would raise their defences greatly.

Lustful: In this form; the girls become lustful beings (in other words, beings of pure fan service, most of them anyway) and the most powerful of all forms BUT it takes a very long time to charge up and when hitting the opponent; their Love Stone will begin to increase power by itself.

Each form will be given their own moveset so the order of pasts for each character are:

Their default form (which will explain their backstory along with some dating quotes)

All their dating forms (which are given a brief description about how they are like in that form before going into a moveset)

The arcade route (which of course will show off some rival scenes, interludes and ending)

Lastly each form will have a finishing move, no nothing like Mortal Kombat kind, I mean as in a epic instant finish attack that can knock out enemies quickly, like Guilty Gear.

Which ones are your type? I look forward to seeing your choices.

Let’s talk about the dating; outside of fighting, like any dating sim you can bring girls on certain locations just to increase your relationships with them.

However it’s more than just dating to get a girls heart, you have to do other things too and look out

All the girls have certain likes, dislikes, favourite food, favourite dating spot, hobbies and even having a preferred form themselves.

In between “school schedules” it is best to treat the girl you picked as much as possible because they need to rest up before the next fighting match that could randomly happen because they don’t automatically heal after the last match so you have to be considerate.

But giving them what they like isn’t always enough, as outside of dates you can also use the time to improve YOURSELF to make things better for the girl you picked.

For example if you give them their favourite food you bought form the store or ordered at a resturant, they will be impressed but if you learn enough cooking skill and cook it handmade and they like it, their love for you grows even more.

While you would date the girls in their default form, their behaviour for certain dates will change depending on what form you picked for them to have for the remainder of the love game.

After all they want to impress the protagonist with the type they picked by acting like them the best they can but each form has its own advantages and disadvantages.

In fact depending on the form you picked for them; their behaviour will change. Becaues after all for their Love Stone to fill up power to work; they will need to make sure to ACT like the type you picked even if it’s against their character but it’s all for the sake of gaining your love.

Here are examples.

Cute: Again just like fighting; it’s the most balanced one of the girls, considered the “easy mode”.

Cool: Will want to get into fights more rather than dates as they believe that a “cool girl” wouldn’t want to go on dates often, they would rather go out and fight. While applying their wishes would increase their relationship with the player; if they don’t rest after a fight they’ll go to the next fight without a full heal so the only way to do that is to give them some food or go on a relaxing date which would decrease their relationship but it’s either that or risk it and to the next fight with the same amount of health as before.

Beautiful: Will want to go on dates often more than fights as they fear that their beautiful form could get ruined from the fighting but by giving them looks that involve cosmetics (like armor, hairbrush etc.) would be thankful.

Motherly: Will take care of you the most and do all the work, such as making dinner, giving you gifts and would even try to enjoy dates with you to places they don’t prefer going too (After all a mother can spoil you, not the other way around) but if you don’t show any appreciation in return for their kind acts they could tire themselves out and have their health drained when they fight next time so be greatful

Lustful: Will be VERY forward with the protagonist about their relationship but if the protagonist doesn’t do anything back, they’ll begin to think they are being taken advantage off and might not like you in the end at all.

Of course picking their preferred form gives you an automatic bonus increase of their love for you.

There are plenty of locations to take the girls, in fact they are also the stages too if you have a random encounter with another girl.

But the player will have to be careful that they don’t pick a location that the girl they have is NOT interested would decrease their love for them but regardless if they loved their time our ot not; it could be interrupted with a random encounter forcing you to fight

Luckily your sister (who obviously is NOT part of the Love Game) has scouted the island for any threats and would often recommend you locations that are either safe or have someone there to fight, so if you want to either find an empty dating spot or have find someone to fight if the school schedule is right.

With these many options...it’s the ultimate dating experience.

Oh and lastly while you can’t see your avatar, you are allowed to decide both name and gender.

Roster
This is probably the largest starting roster in the Union Jack Universe, since the protagonist has travelled all over the world in the past and has met many people, especially many girls who had fell for them during the travels.

The roster has a total of SIXTY characters in total with DLC planned for the future.

Although some girls are from the same countries as each other; many girls come from different parts of the world, making this the most diverse roster in the Union Jack Universe.

Also as a bonus each girl has a “theme” that their Love Stones model their forms after, making it a fun and imaginative way on coming up with their designs and moves.
