To BeLoved
To BeLoved is a psychological dating sim that shows you the importance of loving yourself before loving someone else.
Menmi’s making her move…
A fresh start in distractingly dazzling Applecore City is *just* what hopeless romantic Menmi needs to realize her dreams of meeting her other half!
But the past is never far behind. When Menmi’s new beau shows signs of emotional peculiarities, Menmi must confront the one thing she came to the city to escape: her own feelings.
Learn to Love and Be Loved
Featuring three love interests who are as predictable as they are emotionally available!
• Joule: A personal trainer with a heart as big as his pecs.
• Devan: A picture-perfect professional who supervises Menmi.
• Naji: Menmi’s charming childhood friend who works as a bartender.
Get Psyched for Self-Care
As Menmi’s Conscience, only you can guide her towards a more mindful and kindful approach to life through novel game mechanics including:
• Intrusive Inner Voice
• Self-Awareness
• Customizable bathtime/self-care routine
I felt like I know some version of all the characters, so it felt like hearing my friends tell me about their love lives.
Game in Process
While I can’t compare it to my ongoing journey for self-acceptance, creating To BeLoved from the ground up was one of the toughest and most rewarding experiences I’ve had in my life.
While there are still plenty of story and features to be realized, I’m proud of what we produced for the demo, especially the Miro board we developed as a prototype to show how image and text would interact in-game.
