History VisualNovel / MakingLovers

''For my whole life, I never had a girlfriend. People could laugh at me all they want, but I refused to give up on my ideals when it came to love. I had always pictured a first encounter where I knew right away she was my destined one. After several chance run-ins, we would exchange numbers. Then we would hang out together on the weekends. Only once we'd grown close enough would it be time for a real date.''

''I wouldn't have accepted any love that didn't develop like a storybook romance. Picking up girls at a club or going on blind dates was out of the question for me. And so was arranged dates. How could it be romantic when someone else set you up?''

''I had stood unwavering in my beliefs for my entire life. Until, that is, when the words of a certain girl turned my view on love inside-out...''

''Making Lovers'' is a SliceOfLife [[RomCom rom-com]] VisualNovel developed by Smee and published by Nekonyan. It’s rather unique from other visual novels in a number of ways, most notably that it stars an adult protagonist, (mostly) does not take place in a school setting, and each route is unique to each heroine with very little overlap between the routes. You are also locked into a route very early on, and your choices after that are inconsequential. Routes are also somewhat short compared to other VisualNovels, as the game eschews an overall plot in favor of focusing on interpersonal relationships - or more accurately, how they are built between the protagonist and the new woman in his life.
