A strange anomaly of a game. It's not really a so-bad-it's-good type of game, but it has its moments for sure.

A pretty fun first-person speedrun platformer. It's rough around the edges, but it's still a good time if you're into this kind of game.
The developer's record times aren't holding back and are a fun challenge to beat.

My first run in this game was spent chuckling at all the booba beach activities and casually trying to give gifts to the other girls. At the end of it, all the girls' enjoyment levels were low but mine was relatively high. For my second run I wanted to reach a win condition -- some sort of "good ending" for one of the girls. By the end of this run, the girls' enjoyment levels were high but my enjoyment was crushingly low.

The game feels dead-set on parting you with either your time or your money. And it's banking on PS4 titties and one-way conversations with virtual women being enough to keep you playing.

The optimal way to play this game requires spending a lot of time grinding in the casino. Most of my playtime in this game was at the poker table. The skill curve of this game is determined by how optimally you can gamble.

As a side note: The inclusion of the manager mode is confusing and barely relevant. Swapping to "Manager Mode" feels like a weird choice to always have as a gameplay option when it'll barely ever have a beneficial effect on your run. It feels like it only exists to watch the AI play minigames and to sell you DLC outfits.

Maybe by having most of the game's playtime in a casino, the game is trying to make some sort of statement about dating? "Love is a gamble"? Maybe "To find true joy you'll experience loss along the way"? Or perhaps "Relationships will rarely be a walk on the beach. They'll mostly require hard work, time commitment, and disposable income"?
