Virtual Date Girls

Last Update

2010-09-13T14:14:00.003-07:00

The Site has now been relaunched as www.VDateGames.com

Go there now for further updates.

September 1st 2010

2010-09-01T09:01:00.001-07:00

So, Yahoo just sent me an email asking me to rate their customer care. Hmm...

August 31st - Website issues cont'd

2010-08-30T16:10:00.000-07:00

So, after numerous emails yahoo is being very uncooperative, essentially sending me copied and pasted replys every time. I therefore have no idea what their problem is and will probably have to move the site.

The offsite is still functioning at www.vdg-offsite.com and remember you can still play all the free games at www.playforceone.com

I'll make some noise when the new site comes online wherever it may be.

August 27th - Website Down

2010-08-27T01:14:00.000-07:00

Many of you will have noticed that the main VDG website is down. Occasionally there are hiccups on the yahoo end and the site dissappears for a day, but when it did not come back, I contacted yahoo.

Apparently my site has been delibrately taken down for violating the terms of service. Unsurprisingly, I am now in talks with yahoo to find out WTF they're talking about, but I may have to move to a different dot com.

The blog and the offsite are both still working so keep checking both of them for new links.

August 5th 2010

2010-08-05T06:58:00.001-07:00

Just a quick post to point out that I've changed the upcoming date's name to Lucy to avoid confusion with another game.

July 30th Update

2010-07-30T09:49:00.000-07:00

The preview for the next date, Amy, is now online. Here are some details for those interested.

This will be the next free game, not for the offsite.

This game will also work a little differently, as I want to experiment with a few different gameplay aspects for this one. The first big difference is that this time, you will be playing as the date, Amy. You will control her actions throughout her evening and hopefully give her a happy ending. This is mainly to introduce some new challenges to the gameplay. Similar scenarios may occur, but since you are the woman, you will have to solve them in different ways.

Also note that, although you play as her, any interactions with a male (you), are still in first person. Also, since you control her choices, you can do things like focus on women more, maybe ditching the guy altogether, maybe even trying to get two women to come back to your house if you want to.

The format is designed as an experiment, so not all future games will be like this, although that depends on popularity of course.

On a last note, this game will also use an engine similar to the Latricia date (and the arianeb game before it), rather than the cookies based one. The last time around that I tried it, I got very frustrated with the way you have to implement the instructions, but I've altered the way I assemble everything now, so it's not so bad.

Final words :

- This week I will be reuploading the games to a different filehost. If you want to read the info about my current trouble with rapidshare, see the blog post from a little while ago. I will also be uploading some games translated into French from a very helpful fan.

July 6th 2010

2010-07-06T14:53:00.000-07:00

The Nelena date is now on the offsite for anyone who wants to play it.

June 28th Update

2010-06-28T11:05:00.000-07:00

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! :

Rapidshare, who I use to host my games, are changing their policies from tomorrow. There will be a new system in place based on a points system and bandwidth usage which will limit how many people can download unless I pay for it. Based on Rachel having around 10000 downloads in the first few weeks, by my math it would cost me around $400 a month for a new game to be hosted (plus only a limited amount could download per day, and keep in mind that people will be downloading other files from my site/account as well). Read more here if you're interested : http://www.rapidshare.com/news.html

I will therefore be moving everything to Megaupload and 4SHARED. Hopefully this won't delay the release of the new offsite game, but we'll have to see.

June 18th 2010

2010-06-18T09:21:00.000-07:00

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ! : From Saturday June 19th to the 27th, I am on Holiday. If you send me any emails etc be prepared to wait until Sunday 28th to get a reply.

June 8th 2010

2010-06-08T11:05:00.000-07:00

Just another quick update to say what's going on-

- A slightly expanded version of the Rachel date has now been uploaded to the offsite.

- A preview of the next game has been added to the coming soon section.

May 27th Update

2010-05-27T05:08:00.000-07:00

Mainly a note for the offsite members today. The extended version of the Rachel date should be avaliable for you to download this weekend. There will be two extra endings and you will have access to the nightclub, the sex shop, and your boss's office.

May 12th Update

2010-05-12T10:52:00.000-07:00

What I believe will be the final Rachel date for just now is now the downloadable and online playable versions. If your still having problems playing, make sure you have the latest release.

A big thanks to everyone who helped in reporting the bugs. It turned out to be a very useful way of finding errors to the point where I'm considering releasing betas for any future games.

Just as a note for any online players ; sometimes the yahoo error page displays if too many people are visiting the one page (even happens with the site's index page sometimes), so if you come to a dead end, just trying again may solve your problem.

I will be uploading the Leilani part of the game when I have the time and can get it working, and the extra bonus stuff for the offsite members (including the nightclub, sex shop and extra endings) will probably be up next week.

I know some offsite members who got their access blocked have tried to contact me recently, however I think their emails may have gotten lost amongst the bug reports. If you've sent me an email requesting your membership be extended, please resend it and I'll have your profile altered.

On a last note, it is finally time for me to move house this coming weekend, so if I disappear for a little while, don't worry, I'm just busy with that.

May 8th Update

2010-05-08T14:10:00.000-07:00

RACHEL DATE : IMPORTANT INFO

I am currently uploading the Rachel date. It will be online within the hour. Note however, that I am releasing the beta at this time. Due to the size of this game, I have not been able to test for bugs in every part of the game. I am also only uploading the firefox version, and only to rapidshare (although you can still play online).

If you want to avoid the possibility of being frustrated by lots of bugs, wait until tomorrow evening when a more fully analysed version will be avaliable, as well as an IE version and one on an alternative filehost.

If you're feeling up to braving this version, go ahead, but you have been warned.

Please remember to report any bugs you find using the form on the main site.

May 7th 2010 Update

2010-05-07T11:47:00.000-07:00

A quick post to let you all know what's happening.

There was a what I thought was a minor delay to the game which turned out to be a big problem. To give a quick explaination, the Leilani ending involves playing a mini game, but some of the links got tangled and the whole thing ended up as a mess.

Since the rest of the game, comprising of about 430 images and six endings can be played without it, I will upload the rest of it for you all to play tomorrow (saturday). Hopefully, I should be able to add the Leilani segment a little later. Leilani will still be in the game, but you won't be able to go all the way with her for just now.

April 28th 2010

2010-04-29T06:06:00.000-07:00

Those of you keeping an eye on the coming soon section may notice that the Rachel date has been put back by a week. This is partially to allow more time for bug checking, but also because I want this one to be a much more complete game. For instance, I'm working on the part of the game involving Kelly right now and the middle section of her 'path' actually has two routes (adding more fun if you want to reply, or an alternative to try if you find one route too hard). It's little things like this which are taking up my time right now.

On Sunday however, I will be uploading an updated version of the office party game. This will mainly be to remove any bugs, but I will be adding a little new content too. Hopefully, that will keep visitors busy entertained for a week.

22nd April 2010

2010-04-22T08:30:00.001-07:00

Just a quick post to reinforce what I've already written in the coming soon section. The new date, Rachel, will hopefully be avaliable next weekend.

This will probably be the largest game I've yet done for the site. In terms of images, this was a record previously held by the expanded Crystal version at 420 pictures. Rachel should be over 500 by the time it's released and include at least 6 endings.

April 12th Update

2010-04-12T13:54:00.000-07:00

Todays announcements :

- There is now a countdown section added to the coming soon page. Feel free to check in regularly to see how progress is going until the next release.

- Any users who have had problems playing the Crystal date online may find their problems solved. Please use the feedback button if not.

- Finally, as a point of clarification to all Offsite members, if you had your access temporarily stopped, you still get four months of access. The time you were blocked for does not count as you were not an actual member at the time. This means you had three months of access left if you were stopped after only one.

April 6th 2010

2010-04-06T08:14:00.000-07:00

Today I've reserved the entire day to work on the Rachel date, so it seems like an appropriate time to talk about it.

Rachel will be the last date to operate under the current game system. The games that follow will still have the same basics (play via a browser, date based storyline etc), but I want to introduce a new interface, a new set of girls and a slight change of game mechanics that will vastly enhance the gameplay.

As a result, I'm trying to make Rachel a slight send-off to the current girls (although I'm sure they can return again if needed). There will be a 'solo end' for the main date, but the emphasis will be more on you and Rachel having fun with extra friends. In other words, I'm trying to get every previous date involved in a threesome ending.

I'm determind to get every ending I have planned for this, which is why I have not posted a release date.When I'm at a point where I can guarantee that the game will be uploaded on a certain weekend, I'll be making an announcement about it.

April 5th 2010

2010-04-05T07:49:00.000-07:00

Just a quick important announcement.

My email appears to be having some problems for some reason. If you've tried to contact me, please be patient and I'll respond as soon as I can.

26th March 2010

2010-03-26T07:35:00.000-07:00

Just an announcement today. On Sunday, the site will be down for a few hours in the morning (9 to 12 EST roughly). Do not worry, I'm just uploading the new version of the site.

This includes the offsite.

20th March Update

2010-03-20T11:30:00.000-07:00

Just a run down of what's going on right now.

- A new game has been added to the offsite. Tammy's story is now playable to the members there.

- Later this week, probably Thursday, I will be uploading a new (and hopefully final) look to the site. There won't be any new games, but there will be a few new features that I hope people will like.

- At the same time, what was the VIP section will be merging with the offsite content.

- The next free game will feature Rachel as the main date. I have already starting working on it and will post up a release date later this week.

28th February 2010

2010-02-28T06:23:00.000-08:00

Just a quick, formal blog update today.

In case you hadn't noticed, the updated version of the Kelly date is online. There are three new endings for you to discover. If you find any bugs, please send them to chaotic@virtualdategirls.com so I can resolve them.

In case you hadn't realised by the recent poll, the next game to the site will feature Rachel. This game will also include the removed ending from Kelly involving Alex from the office game, as well as several others of course. An ETA and more details will be posted at a later time on the site.

As an extra note, from March 1st, VIP will not be open to new subscribers. This is because I will be amalgamating it with the offsite, so everything from VIP will be moved over. It seems a sensible thing to do for a variety of reasons. The merge will happen on April 1st to give any recent VIPs the full month they signed up for.

18th Feb 2010

2010-02-18T09:10:00.000-08:00

Good news.

I've finally managed to find a way of altering expired members on the offsite.

It's a tedious process and I have to trawl through all the records online (with no search ability), but it is possible. Pardon my French, but thank Fuck. To say I was getting a little stressed out over this would be an understatement.

If you previously signed up for the offsite, but only got one month's worth of access, email me at this address : vdgoffsitereports@googlemail.com

Please do not use the usual admin email address. This will allow me to keep things better organised.

Email your username, password and the email address you signed up with and I should be able to alter your membership to the longer version.

Please be patient as updating the information isn't a simple case of ticking a box and, as I said earlier, there's no search function.

Now, I'm going for a drink.

17th Feb Update

2010-02-17T05:33:00.000-08:00

Just a quick update to point out what's happening with the offsite.

Epoch, the internet billing company who handle the memberships, don't seem to have a system which simply allows a one time payment and infinate access. I have found however, the option of how to create new subscription options. The sign-up to the offsite is now a one time payment for four months of access.

This way, anyone who signs up will have a third of a year to enjoy any updates. It feels a little better than one month for $19.99 as I don't feel the amount of games there just now warrent the cost. The original point of the offsite was to help with my house moving around May 1st, and my big thanks to everyone who subscribed so far (especially if you did it for that reason), but a constant source of finacial support for the site also helps keep it going, so my aim is to maintain the offsite like this. There is the VIP section, but there really aren't that many people who take it up (27 right now currently subscribed I think), and since the price is about the same now, I am considering merging the two.

If anyone who's membership has run out wishes to resubscribe at the new rate, go ahead, but there is no new content just yet. When there is, it will be announced on the main free site.

11th February 2010

2010-02-11T07:42:00.000-08:00

Just a few straight forward statements for this blog update.

The next game to the site will be an expanded version of the Kelly date. See the coming soon section for more details.

Due to a misunderstanding in how something was phrased, the offsite is only actually giving access to people for one month (it is not rebilling though, so don't panic too much if you signed up). I don't think the billing company has a service where they just give permanent access. I'll have to decide what to do about it.

The 'Super date' I have planned is going well and should be finished around the April time I intend. I'll add a preview to the site once the new Kelly game is online.

4th Jan 2010

2010-01-04T06:10:00.001-08:00

First of all, happy new year to everyone. I've a few things to get through in this update, so let's begin.

First of all : the new year plan.

I've been meaning to do a big game for a while now, and I mean a big one. Something with well over a thousand images, ten endings, multiple options for threesomes (maybe not even with just an extra girl. I've gotten requests for endings involving another guy). I've finally worked out a plan for it I like, and I've already started a bit.

Obviously though, this will take a while. I may not even finish until the end of April. The plan is therefore to work on this 'super date' game, but at the same time add some smaller games to the site which don't require too much time to make. There's a few ways of saving time : reuse people already in the previous games, reuse locations, make the stories a bit more linear etc, so I'll employ as many as I can but still hopefully come up with something fun.

For instance, I haven't quite decided yet, but I think the next game will be a 'Day at work scenario', continuing on from the office party, and may have as a main character the redhead from the fantasy games who only had a cameo. I'm yet to officially decide though.

Second of all : the offsite

www.vdg-offsite.com

The offsite is a new paid for section of the site and the combination of two things. Firstly, I'm moving house in about six weeks time(yey!), and to be blunt, I could do with some extra cash to help with it. Secondly, I think I mentioned it several months ago in a blog post that I had a friend who was interested in making games similar to mine. He never quite managed it, but we have managed to do some stuff together, and two of the games on the offsite are a result of that. By the looks of it, we'll probably be working together again as well, and hopefully he'll have learned how to do the javascript parts by then so it won't just be my job.

If you wish to sign up, it's an automated service (which means you just type in your payment details and you get access right away), and to gain access is a one time only payment of $19.99. There's no rebilling on a monthly basis or anything like that, and there will be updates to the site every so often.

Just as an extra note/reminder. The VIP section is also still going and previews of the forthcoming games (including the new 'super date') will be added there. If any VIPs wish to cancel, there should be a way to do so via your paypal account, or alternatively, send me an email and I'll do it for you.

Third of all : Office party game

The IE version is now online. Remember, if you have have any problems to bugs to report, you can contact me at Chaotic@virtualdategirls.com

I think that's everything I have to report for just now. Hope you all have a good year.

5th December 2009

2009-12-05T05:10:00.000-08:00

As decided by last weeks poll (and myself), the next game will be released just before christmas and will involve what you get up too at your yuletide office party.

There will be too main 'dates' involved, your secretary and your boss.

The new game will also be played a bit differently. Rather than the methodical system of gaining points in certain areas, I will be focusing on creating an interactive storyline where decisions you make will have various affects later on during the five hour party. i.e. Spiking the punch bowl might get everyone at the party drunk quicker, but may also make a rival male employee also with his eye on your secretary a bit more confident. Basically, I can see this one working more like the Crystal date, but with elements of the others.

As stated above, this game will also be the first to occasionally pit you against someone else, so watch out.

There will be at least four endings to the game, and a very, very rough guess at a release date will be Wednesday December 23rd.

3rd November Update

2009-11-03T02:53:00.000-08:00

This coming weekend will see a new date added to the site.

Although the Latricia date functioned effectively, I was never happy using using the engine to create it. It can be a little confusing at times and the amount of bugs I had to solve before I released it was heavy. It was therefore my intention to convert it to the more usual cookie based engine, adding much more content and many more endings along the way.

This presented another set of problems. Basically, the storyline was very arkward to adapt.

I therefore decided to move in another quick direction. There will be a new date for you to play with. Her game will abuse all the areas I was never able to use for Latricia. This means I can get the images for her locations put together very quickly. Since it would be a shame to waste such a cute character, Latricia herself will also feature in it for at least one ending.

The character preview can be seen in the new 'coming soon' section of the site. The story will also feel much more fantasy based this time : she's the count's daughter who you've been instructed to woo.

ETA Sunday

7th October Update

2009-10-07T09:40:00.000-07:00

Just a quick request post.

Can anyone still finding bugs/having problems with the current releases of the games please send a quick email to Chaotic@virtualdategirls.com.

28th Sept 2009

2009-09-28T02:49:00.000-07:00

Four weeks today since the last one, so here's a quick update to let regular visiters know what's going on.

The fantasy date isn't finished yet. It's progressing well, but I'm trying to make it a large one with lots if replay value and around seven different endings. I wouldn't expect it to be done for at least two more weeks.

I was hoping to get a second expansion mod for the ArianeB game done and released this weekend in order to keep people satisfied, but there's a major bug yet to resolve. If I can figure it out, I'll upload it this week.

01st Sept 2009

2009-09-01T01:56:00.000-07:00

Well, now that Erica, Leilani and Kelly are out of the way, I think it's time to advance to the next level of game style in the same way I advanced after Crystal (Although I will occasionally continue to expand and fix the three girls). After creating an expansion pack for theArianeB game, I'm confident that I can use alot of the mechanics to create something much more reliable for players (I'm aware that the cookies currently used can be hard to control).

One thing that I believe I will be changing for at least one date is the setting. Rather than sticking to the modern theme, I'm going to try a game with a fantasy setting. This will have a number of advantages ;

- More locations. In order to deliver new games and not have them take forever, I borrow alot of background images from mainstream computer games (mainly the hitman series). Different settings means many more places and situations.
- One awkward problem has always been avoiding too many similarities to the ArianeB game. Changing the setting will help.
- I've been wanting money to be a factor in these games for a while now. A budget of ten gold coins will be easier to manage than $100.

I'll post up some further details at a later time.

On an extra note some of you might be interested to hear that a friend of mine has gotten interested in what I'm doing and is looking into doing something similar. I'm not too sure exactly what he's aiming for but he seems determined and if it amounts to anything I'll post a link.

25th August 2009

2009-08-25T01:48:00.000-07:00

My apologies for not updating the blog for a while. There just didn't seem much of a need to do so since the site explained everything.

The Kelly date will definitely be coming this week. It will be around 45 mb and contain two endings (with the possibilty of more being added later, as always). Although the mechanics work similar to the previous games, I have tried to add a few new ways of doing things which I hope will be popular.

21st July Update

2009-07-21T08:59:00.000-07:00

Just a quick post to let everyone know, the update with the new graphics is indeed still coming and will be online either thursday or friday.

The main reason for the delay is because I'm reorganising the site by doing things such as dividing the different girl's dates into different downloads. It's pointless to have them all bunched together, and it's easier to upgrade them all if they're seperate so it's what I'll be doing from now on.

If the site is temprarily down for a while in the next few days, this is why. Just give it a few hours and it'll be back.

14th July Update

2009-07-14T04:27:00.000-07:00

A small blog post just to let players know that there will be a large game update this week. It's debatable at this point if there will be any new activities, the important change being the graphics.

As some might be aware, I spent alot of time last week experimenting with different renders for different models. The graphics are now much more improved, and since I had already replaced most of the Erica pictures as tests, I thought I might as well finish her entire game.

So you can see what I mean, here is the original style compared to the much clearer new one.

Before :

After (now) :
This should also be the standard for any future updates.

3rd July 2009

2009-07-03T16:10:00.000-07:00

A new ending has been added to the Leilani date, downloadable & online versions.

Good luck to any players trying to get to it (look to the leisure center).

27th June Update

2009-06-27T07:07:00.000-07:00

No real update to speak of, but in case players hadn't noticed I felt I should point out that the better version of VDG with bug fixes for Leilani is applied to the online version.

An online playable version of Virtually Date Crystal has also been added to the site for those who have difficulty downloading the games.

19th June 2009

2009-06-19T13:03:00.000-07:00

The game Virtual Date Girls has been updated, most notably with the Leilani dates now avaliable.

Just so you know, there are four endings to find. There were going to be five, but I removed one due to techincal issues. The reason I mention this is because there are some images that will not appear in game, but downloaders may find in the folders (meeting Crystal and Rachel in the bar for instance). These will be implimented in the next release.

Note that there are also two versions avaliable now, one best suited for the two main browsers. If you have issues with either-

a)Close your browser and open it again. Everything will be reset.
b)Make sure you have upgraded to the latest version.

Enjoy the new game scenarios.

16th June 2009

2009-06-16T03:07:00.000-07:00

Just a general update.

The new update will indeed be up this weekend as intended, probably friday. It will include one new date, Leilani, which will be about the same size as Erica's from the last release. There will also be bug fixes concerning the coding, so any players who have had browser based issues should enjoy this release more.

I think the ultimate intention is to have 5 girls for VDG volume one, then eventually adance to a volume 2. Each volume upgrade will have some changes in how the game works. I'm already playing with ;
- money, might be an interesting element for the date if I can get it working, allowing multiple visits to stores but still with restrictions (could also win more at casinos etc).
-Flash. I like the sex/reward scenes in this, but I think I could do better. Loading up an interactive flash sequence just for this bit rather than switching between three looping GIFs might be the way to go.

After Leilani, the next date added will be Kelly. I'm not too sure after that as I've ran out of models/outfits/props and need to buy some more (although with money I don't have. Daz models can be annoyingly expensive when you add up all the parts to buy) . I'm sure I can find the money somewhere though.

12th June Update

2009-06-12T02:38:00.000-07:00

For those of you who speak it, a French version of the game has now been added to the site. Full credits goes to Astringues for the work on the translation.

There is no change to the physical content of the game, just the language.

June 6th 2009

2009-06-06T06:41:00.000-07:00

I have added a more thorough walkthrough to the site for those of you trying to find all the endings. I think it will be a regular thing to release the guide one week after each game update.

Updates look like they will be happening once every three weeks. The Leilani date will be added next in about a fortnight's time (it may be sooner however, and/or I may release some Erica additions).

30th May 2009

2009-05-30T07:29:00.000-07:00

Quickly put together an upgraded version of the main game.

Bugs corrected

- A few dialogues in the wrong places
- Error at the Leisure Center which resulted in blank page
- An invisible error at the intro bar where the game registered you having a drink if you didn't (probably why some people keep finding Erica passed out in the nightclub)

Both online and downloadable versions are fixed.

29th may 2009 (pt2)

In case you haven't noticed, the new full site is up.

Enjoy the new date scenarios. I will be double checking for bugs tomorrow, so if there are any (or many), there will be a quickly put together 1.1 version then.

Now. Drinking...

A fairly quick update just to keep those anxious ones of you informed.

The new game is now finished and I am now working on putting together the full site in terms of content, and putting together a downloadable version of VDG (the default is to make an online version and then convert it).

The full site will definatly be up tomorrow, probably midday.

First of all, for clarification purposes, I'm afraid there will not be a new game online this weekend. Nothing's wrong, it's just that I feel a minor Virtually Date Crystal update isnt worth launching the main site with, and I'd rather finish the Virtual Date Girls game and get it out a little sooner.

The new game will probably be online Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. I'm still working out alot of the details for two of the dates, so what I'll do is include the full Erica segment (the redhead), and include smaller demos of the other two girls (Crystal and the blonde). You'll meet them for drinks etc, but it won't really go anywhere, whereas Erica will go, well, everywhere.

Fuller versions of the other two date possibilities will be released a week or so later, after which, if all goes well, I'll be adding more situations for them, as well as adding new dates.

The new version of the date game is going very well, but as a slight bad news, I doubt it will be finished by the weekend. This could be said to be good news however, due to the reason...

Before I got started on constructing the new version, I took alot of time out to work on how it should, well, work. As a result, I ended up with a useful system of setting and reading variables that I could expand into the entire game. Unlike Virtually Date Crystal, which pretty much worked as a maze with lots of dead ends, the new one works on what you could call a simple game engine. There is much more emphasis on replayability.

The point is, the new game is much easier for me to put together, and so I'm adding as much content as possible for the release. As well as the new dates with Erica, there will new dates with Crystal, and even some with the Blonde you may have noticed on the site.

Hopfeully it'll all go well and people will like what I've done.

As I stated in my last post, I may release an updated version of the original Crystal for the weekend, but I'll have to see. It still might be possible for me to finish the new one instead.

If there's one useful way to keep the currently thousands of viewers a day to my site informated, I thought it would be a blog, and so, here we are.

First of all, the all new revised version of the game is still coming. The reason it has taken so long is that I've been trying to come up with a slightly better engine for the game to run with, as well as something slightly more unique. The original reason for making this was to do with how much fun I had playing the ArianeB dating game, followed by discovering the lack of similar games avaliable on the web. This is why, despite some gameplay differences, Virtually Date Crystal is what some have accurately refered to as an Ariane 'clone'.

The new game system now works a little differently. It uses a combination of Javascript and cookies to control the various situations. The player's choices of what to do are divided into verbal and physical. The images are now a little larger. A personal favorite is the player's ability to input their name, which the date then says in conversation. It's a little touch, but it makes a big difference.

Finally, the full site is now moving to something with alot more bandwidth ability and versatility (at least from my web publishing perpective). You'll find the new game at www.virtualdategirls.com.

I'll hopefully have something up there by the weekend. If by thursday it looks like I'm not going to finish, I'll probably throw together an expanded version of VDC with a couple of extra scenarios.

All the best
