INTEREST CHECK
INTEREST CHECK
Hi there! This is Shay, and this is my silly little shipping game idea. Welcome to the HOLIDATE interest check! Thank you for giving the game a look! HOLIDATE is a shipping game themed around winter holidays and Christmas romance tropes specifically. It borrows heavily from Are You the One?, both the reality television show and
starswept's short-term game from earlier this year. The premise is borrowed and tweaked with her permission!
HOLIDATE is a short-term, private game that will run on a weekly event schedule from Halloween to mid-December, with an "off" week with no major events to accommodate Thanksgiving. Each week, characters will compete in romantic challenges and dating scenarios while trying to find which other participant the game runners have selected as their Perfect Match. If all matches are found by the end of the game, every character will win a "Holiday Miracle" and be able to have a wish of their choice granted. While the basic structure is reminiscent of other short-term setups like murder and mafia style games, it is my intention that HOLIDATE remain low-pressure throughout its run. The short duration and end goal for the characters will still create the incentive for rapid CR development; however, participation in every single event isn't mandatory. This is my Christmas gift for my friends and I want to make it a positive, cozy experience.
If you haven't already, please check out the premise, rules, and FAQ for more information about the game. If you have any other questions, I'm happy to answer them as well! I'm very excited to play with everyone, and I hope the premise has piqued your interest!
The interest check is now running! Go wild in here, enable each other, hype one another up, and most of all, remember to make some holiday wishes come true!
If you're interested in playing, you can use this form to post your interest check comment in style!

Character Considerations: closes my eyes.............................it's just Eustace from Granblue Fantasy because I have one brain cell and also I need someone whose tags I can do in my sleep if I want to survive. I still hate being a one-trick pony though, I want that stated on record.
Certainty: 75%? Maybe??? It really depends on how fast-paced this game is please don't be too fast, my body is so weak
Questions, Comments, Concerns?: I don't think so???? You told me he could pet at least one (1) dog at some point in the game and I'm holding you to that, that's my join condition.
Anything else?: WAIT ONE MORE THING can we have a cute lil kotatsu so I can replicate this in-game, thanks.

I AM JUST KIDDING: there will be a dog petting opportunity.
You know I want only the best for Eustace! I think since folks will have to huddle for body heat AT LEAST ONCE, it is only reasonable to have a kotatsu or two.
god i'm so magnanimous
