The Dating Demonstration

Welcome to a short interactive fiction about going on dates with infernal mates on a mysterious app called 'Cinder' that downloads itself on your phone. Will you get your heart broken? Will you find your eternal infernal love bug? Will you even survive the date!? Well that's up to you buddy!

  

- Three dateable* infernal pals (and one fourth secret option)

- 60 minutes of play time about 20 minutes for each route. Even more if you want to go back and get all the secret endings you maniac!

- 25+ endings!

- Very minimal character customization! No picking your pronouns here! Instead of coding that in because that seemed quite hard, I just made it so everybody refers you by name, or not at all!  

- Very in depth insider Applebee's® knowledge (just kidding, please no one come for me)

- The definitive answer to life's biggest questions! Yes!! It's here!!! In this game!!! Which questions? Ah ah ah, you'll have to play to find out the answer to that one!

- A couple slightly steamy scenes!!! Where one might!!! smooch another!!! or even!!! perhaps!!! hold hands!!!!

- Varying degrees of violence!!!

- So many spelling errors!

*Some of these characters are more dateable than others.  It depends on your definition of 'date'. They have various preferences and some will be more forth coming, others might be a slow burn, some are comfortable with kissing, some prefer different showings of affection. 

See content warnings in the game, use your judgement, +17 to cover my ass!

Whether or not you want to throw a few bucks at this game, is completely optional. If you do, it will go towards coffee,  no funding will go towards the makings of any futuristic bloodsports. Unless you want that.

Currently mobile unfriendly!
