Advance Dating By Web - Fangame
A downloadable Game
(All of the music is royalty free, so people can stream it. To play the game just download the zip file, extract it, then open up the ADBW application file.)
April 1st-2024 - So a lot of content and minigames were so buggy that they had to be cut out, which caused a lot of the later scenes to be cut out too. I'm hoping to put out a more complete patch within the next month, but no promises yet.
(The homepage of the game still says version 1.5, I'll fix that tomorrow)
Advance Dating By Web is a free Integrated Dating Sim that goes alongside Advance Wars By Web AWBW.
There's been a running joke about an Advance Wars Dating Sim for years and years now.
Imo, the bulk of the jokes started after Intelligent Systems had an interview about Fire Emblem and Advance Wars. Interview with Intelligent Systems In it they talk about their perceived weaknesses of AW compared to FE; how the units of AW were all the same but there were unique characters in FE that would have stories and connections to other units.
"However, the units in Fire Emblem are characters you can be emotionally invested in, they are important people that you can’t just build more of. At the same time there is also human drama between the characters, telling a spectacular story."
And do you know what, to the casual market they're right.
So Advance Dating By Web is not completed yet. The goal is to make an integrated dating simulator, where the actions you make in the dating sim portion and the connections you make between characters also effect the stats and gameplay of the strategy game portion. Gaining compatibility with characters in the dating sim will raise stats and synergies for some characters, making them stronger in some strategy game modes, and automatically shifting gameplay to suit which characters they prefer.
And vise versa; the amount of time you play, which characters you primarily use, how many units you destroy, etc, will all affect your life and relationships with others in the Dating Sim. And consistent gameplay overtime also gives item perks, special events, and hidden backstories within the dating sim.
