Melody VLT Dates Brainstorm

Hey, Science Team! As our player and Melody are out saving the world, we still want to make time for dates and private hangouts for you to enjoy with Mel. With the polish being put on VLT to debut in an upcoming release, we’d love to hear what kind of dates you want to go on with Melody within the city!

What is this about?

You will be able to suggest date ideas for the player to take Melody on in Virtual Little Tokyo. This will be part of a multiple suggestion/poll series for all of our locations, where you all get to help us design and bring those sweet moments to life!

Example: "Melody and the player go to a maid cafe, and learn the magic love spell from the maids to make bagels even more delicious. After a delicious meal and some hyper-kawaii entertainment, they head back to Mel’s apartment to try the love spell on each other to see if it makes them yummier~“

Some key locations that will be in VLT:

  • Maid cafe

  • Konbini/Convenience Stores

  • Clothing Shops

  • Bakery

  • Cafe

  • System HQ (home of the system agents)

  • Restaurants

  • Parks/Gardens

  • And many more to come!

Where would you like to go, and what would you like to do during dates (and after)?

Guidelines

We’ll be accepting responses through September 29th, after which we will pick from your best and/or most popular ideas (and some of our team’s) suggestions, and create up to 5 poll options that then can be voted on by all patrons with a voting tier. The Brainstorm itself is public, so any Melody fans can put forth ideas, but the poll will be exclusive to our supporters.

Based on the likes your post receives, the likelihood of our team picking one of your suggestions will rise.

Be aware that in case any of your ideas already exist in the game design document, we might not be able to tell you why we did not pick your idea - even if it was a really really really good one.

Taking Melody dancing sounds like a great date! Or to like a virtual beach. Honestly I think this game is going to be an absolutely amazing!

Walking the vegas strip but like a cyberpunk version but you get to eat at different restaurants, go shopping & Go on the farris wheel or on the rollercoasters. Or even watch concerts & magic shows like Like the blueman's group(But your guys's taken on them). An even go see the golden nugget or the motorcycle dome but all with a cyberpunk look to it.

Mel takes us to her favorite strip club, to meet some of her friends, enjoy some talented dancers, and hang out, Maybe if she's in the mood, a lap dance to end the night

It is generally accepted that Mel's number one superpower is her S tier music taste, so I was thinking that a date to a Music store, a karaoke bar, or maybe even a live performance would be a great way for her to show off. I can imagine her getting excited talking about a current music obsession or a style of music she's in the mood for. It would give us a chance to get to know another facet of her personality. I would be surprised if Mel didn't have a music related story that she could share with us. As a bonus it could lead to a conversation about the kind of music she will want to have playing later if the date goes well.

Itd be fun if there was like a dating im storyline but intead of using text, you could find things or do things to expand the like meter and unlock new girls/customizable scenes (adventure mode)

This concept could work with a group of characters, or just Mel and the MC. After (or during) the tour of VLT, Mel shows the MC her favorite club/bar. The two go there to hang out, and end up playing a game (or series of games) with seriously lewd undertones. Truth or Dare, Would You Rather, King's Game (one of my personal favorites, but it would likely only work with a group of characters), Strip Poker, etc. This is definitely a loaded idea with a lot of possibilities and routes that can be taken, but I thought I'd just throw out this nugget of an idea. This would allow Mel and the MC to get to know each other better, whether it's through questions, dares, or any other game gimmicks. The games don't have to all be lewd. They can start off more casual and/or wholesome and slowly derail as the atmosphere and drinks get the better of Mel and the MC.

You and Mel go to the bakery where they are having a class. You have a game between you two to see who can go the longest without making an innuendo while making doughnuts, eclairs, pies, etc. The scene afterwards can be determined by which ones the player makes jokes about. Doughnut for anal, eclairs fir vaginal, pies for… well… you get the idea. May even have the option of leaning into a feeding scene for anyone interested.

I'd vote for some outdoorsy fun at the park, maybe in the bushes, maybe in plain view, who knows~

I got two idea on the locations listed with the bakery you could have the bunny chef holding a baking class and take it with mel to make cupcakes you can chose to make it wholesome and sweet or make the treats look suggestive. With the maid cafe it think it be fun if you or Mel could order like a concert from the staff but you could have Mel join the staff for the dance or Mel puts in the request to have you join the staff for the concert.

If one of the girls is into exhibition you could have kinky side quests/ date in the park at night. Have it be like a stealth section where the girl (or both of you) go streaking through the park and you’re trying to “finish” your date with out getting caught. The riskier you do the date the higher the reward.

I have a few ideas, so I'll number them for clarity. They're not in any order, though. 1. Bring her to an arcade, or back to her place, to play games together. Watching her play games and get better is fun in general, and I'd love to see her MGL side represented... And you can include fun interactions like having her just do button mashing, or letting her win. The scene could also get romantic by with something like having her ask for tips, and then you wrap your arms around her to have our hands over hers holding the controller and guide her through the buttons. 2. Blair's lab, or the witch's place, would be an interesting location to bring her, and then she realizes that Blair (or the witch) is not there so you mess around with inventions or potions that you find. This could easily lead to more niche scenarios/fetishes that won't work in normal scenes, like opening a portal that tentacles come out of, or accidentally using a shrink ray on either her or yourself. Then when they come back and find you both messing with their stuff, Mel can just yell "I HAVE A CONDUCT DISORDER" and run off, with you following close behind. (She says that a lot on streams) XD 3. I've always loved the idea of having Mel stuck in a phone, and carrying it around to tour a city, showing her all the strange locations she asks to visit. 4. Since that may not work to well in the game, it'd be fun to have her request to see "Piss Alley" or an alley with a similarly odd name, just to get there and have her get ADD make her bored and either try to get lewd or want to move onto somewhere else. She mentions wanting to see it fairly often in streams, and that's how I always imagine how a visit would actually go. 5. Another idea would be fishing, in either a park or a specialty restaurant that cooks what you catch, since Mel has proven quite inept at that in general (unless she uses a net). XD That also opens the door for several jokes, like having her reference the anime meme with a like like "Shall I pleasure you with a fish?' And maybe if you meet a mermaid later on in the story, she could reference the date with lines like 'We didn't eat any of your cousins, I swear!" 6. Go to a store like IKEA to play hide and seek, grab some food, and hide out in the furniture section while eating together. Basically, scenes that focus on fun and silly character interactions and her personality, instead of just being chances for lewd scenes like most h-games.

I'm gonna go out on a wild card and say the System HQ, my reasoning is two fold one, because it would allow the player to see a different side to Melody. The other being it could also be a place where in a more intimate moment narratively speaking, Melody could let her hair down. Allowing for a moment of character growth between both parties.

How about a walk date through a park and just enjoy some wholesome time together. You have casual conversations and maybe find yourself in a hidden area for some "extra curricular activities". The. You head to her apartment cause you lost your keys in the park and spend the night.

Robert Day · September 8, 2023

Yes, I love this.

How about a cooking date inside of the apartment, where you teach Mel how to cook or visa versa. Cooking/baking accidents can happen and you could have a fun time cleaning each other up

Robert Day · September 8, 2023

Cooking with Mel sound good.

Nendario · September 8, 2023

How about a reading cafe (book themed cafe) or a library, we could find old book maybe with a little magic or ritual could trun into a bigger side quest thing

Finding the karma sutra with Mel would be cool.

Maybe movie night at her place, shopping date so she can try out new outfits and the player could rate them, video games too with dares

E
Elisha Sywassink · September 8, 2023

How about a classic arcade trip where you get to play a few games with the goal of competing with melody. Who ever comes out on top in this date gets to be "top" the next time the player and melody have fun together.

I feel like having a date at a sex toy shop could have many funny and sexy moments
