Dating sim template
One person, three meetings, and a score that changes what they say the next time. Tokimeki Memorial (Konami, 1994) is the calendar this genre inherited. Hatoful Boyfriend (PigeoNation, 2011) proves the calendar can be absurd and still a system. Monster Prom (Beautiful Glitch, 2018) lets you see the number. If the third meeting could have been the first, the score is fake. The AI dating sim maker is those meetings.

What the template starts with
The dating sim template starts with one character, three meetings and an affection score. That is the smallest version of the loop that defines the genre: spend time, choose replies, grow a relationship.
What to change first
Take the cold path and the warm path to the third talk. The lines should not match. A heart icon that moves while the text does not is a sticker.
2D or 3D
The dating sim template starts in 2D.
