Über das Spiel

Julian Luxemburg has prepared a dinner for two at his place ? but things go awry when the date does not show up and he is left waiting at his dinner table, the clock?s ticking growing unbearably loud.



?Dinner Date? is the character portrait of Julian: by becoming his subconsciousness you gain a clear vantage point on the worries which take a hold of him. As the wait for the beautiful girl grows longer it becomes evident that Julian?s real problems may not even begin originate the girl: what of his work and his boss? And what of the headhunter, his fascination with Byron and his friendship with Jerry who, all things considered, was ultimately the person who pushed Julian to go on this date?



You are not merely listening ? in the unprecedented role as his subconsciousness you tap the table, look at the clock and, as Julian bares more of his mind, reluctantly start to eat, your actions resonating with Julian?s thoughts to form an absolutely singular form of intimacy.



In this manner you will experience ?Dinner Date?: with some glasses of wine, some bread, some soup - and with a clock which slowly mocks the constant wait for when she comes, this elusive girl who will solve everything.



Key features:


  • Julian?s story lasts a fully voiced 25 minutes and is told through various unique animations, set in a real-time 3d environment with the unique interface of playing as a subconsciousness, the first of its kind.
  • The game is complimented by an original score, written by Than van Nispen tot Pannerden.
  • At the Independent Game Festival 2011, ?Dinner Date? has been nominated for the Nuovo award, an award which ?honors abstract, shortform, and unconventional game development which advances the medium and the way we think about games.?

Die Verabredung taucht nicht auf und Du sitzt mit Selbstzweifel am Tisch. Das wünscht sich doch jeder bzw. wollte das schon immer mal spielen. Naja, Spielen ist zu hoch gegriffen. Man kann im Sitzen auf die Uhr sehen, die Hände bewegen, Brot essen, Wein trinken, sich umsehen, etc. Vor allem dem eigenem Gejammer lauschen. Kunst beiseite, Spaß sieht anders aus. Erinnert alles sehr an deutsches Kino, entweder Drama oder flacher Humor. Letzteres fehlt hier ja komplett! Wer noch nicht versetzt wurde bzw. noch keine Freundin hatte und das Erleben möchte, sollte zugreifen. Der Rest kann sich das sparen, für den Preis wird da zu wenig geboten.

Im Grunde handelt es sich hier nicht um ein Spiel, sondern eher um eine Art interaktiver Arthouse Film. Deshalb kann ich auch eher abraten.

Man spielt das Spiel aus der Sicht eines Mannes, der auf seine Verabredung wartet, aber offenkundig von ihr versetzt wird, Während man also das selbstgekochte Essen selbst auffuttert, sich unfreiwillig besäuft (da man den Wein jetzt allein trinkt) und eine Frustzigarette raucht wird man von den eigenen Gedanken verfolgt.

Mehr bietet dieses Erlebnis nicht. Nach knapp 30 Min ist es vorbei und man wird das Gefühl nicht los, die 30 Min in jedem Fall anders besser genutzt zu haben. Speziell wenn man selbst schon mal im Real Life versetzt worden ist, bietet sich einem hier nichts neues. Nicht selbst kaufen, sondern darauf warten, dass es einem Indie Bundke beiligt. Und auch dann zweimal überlegen, ob man nicht etwas besseres zu tun hat.

Ein Dinner Simulator ohne Dinner und dafür mit mehr Selbstmitleid.
Das soll wohl so eine Art Kunst sein. Die 20 minuten könnt ihr euch aber genauso gut sparen!

NOPE!

A 22 minute game about an English man feeling sorry for himself, getting drunk, and feeling more sorry for himself. Game will essentially play itself if you don't touch it.

While it's a relatively early indie game and the tools weren't quite there yet at the time, there's just not anything to it, be it gameplay or story, unless you really want to get in the mind of a 27 year old white guy upset that he didn't get to have sex with a 20 year old Japanese girl.

Dinner Date is a stilted short story about the social constructs that a modern man faces in the dating world, masquerading as a video game. Which I think is honestly the point, fair enough. That's not a condemnation of the game or the story. As a story, the game is fine. But almost nothing you're able to do in the game matters. So you're mostly just listening to dialogue for a few minutes, and hoping that your dinner date is thicc.

I couldn't imagine paying full price for the game now ($3.99). But maybe it's worth it on sale for a dollar, if you're interested in alternative game design. No one else should buy or play the game.

Rating: D+

P.S. If it takes longer to read your review of this game than it does to play the game, you're a traitor to the human race and you should be banished from society.

Bought this game for my stream to give them a realistic idea of what a dinner date would be. They were comforted by how accurate the game way. 10/10 would recommend. Great game for the whole family.

Sexier than anything I have seen on Reddit. Clearly a masterpiece too great for human eyes. When the date finally gets there, it is so worth it. Five Golden Stars!

Dinner Date is a very short indie title about a man waiting for his date to arrive and I fucking hated it.

The main reason I hated this game was mainly due to the usual false expectations scenario. Rather than just completely rip this game apart let me explain what I thought the game was going to be, and then what the game actually is.

What I thought Dinner Date was going to be:

Everything I thought this game was going to be came from what people posted about on the internet. Nothing I am writing in this section is what I hoped the game would be, this is what I expected based on others experiences with it. Like I mentioned above, this is a game about a man waiting for his date to arrive at his house. However, I was under the assumption that this would be 1st person, without any narration, and you are completely free to do whatever you want while you wait for the date. You do not know who the date is, or why this man is possibly being stood up. Maybe this is him being dumped, maybe he murdered her, maybe he doesn’t have a date and he’s lonely, we just don’t know. While waiting for your possible date to arrive, you are free to do whatever you want in your apartment. Doing actions will affect the outcome of “The Date”. Maybe you could eat your entire meal before he/she shows up, would that have an effect? Maybe if you drink the whole bottle of wine you will pass out and miss the date entirely, never knowing if the person came by or not. Maybe you could just sit there and wait the entire time, twiddling your thumbs, eagerly watching the clock. Maybe you could just fucking kill yourself, the point is what sold me on this game was mystery. Every time I looked into this game online, for whatever reason, the game was completely shrouded in mystery, and this made me want to play the game so badly. I was honestly expecting to play this game multiple times just to see what else I could make happen. There could’ve been so many possibilities, so many outcomes, but as you can guess I ended up being tremendously disappointed.

What Dinner Date actually is:

A monologue. The game is literally just a monologue disguised as a video game. If there are any David Cage fanboys reading this, buy this game right now. NOTHING you do while you “wait” for you date matters. I only played this game once and I went in with the intention of killing my character through alcohol abuse, but even though I am drinking down a glass of wine every 5 seconds, the character doesn’t shut up…even while he is drinking. You are forced to listen to this guy whine and complain and there’s nothing you can do about it. Yeah, there are actions, but they are fucking meaningless. I’m pretty sure if someone smoked 47 cigarettes in a row he would maybe cough a few times in the middle of his bitching. The game kept giving me hope that something good would happen. Oh look! He’s getting up! Can I jump out the window? Nope. Can I open my fridge? Nope. Well, can I grab that endless bottle of wine again? Not right now, nope. When I realized that I could just sit back and the game would play itself I decided to stick through to the end, with the hope that maybe something interesting would happen, but of course not. You listen to this guy whine and complain about life for awhile and then that’s it, it just ends. He doesn’t kill himself (sadly), the date never shows up, nothing fucking happens. The best part about the uh experience is the torture is short. My game time for this is 23 minutes and I waiting till the credits ended.

So that’s it, I can’t even recommend this game to people who enjoy monologues, or hearing sad..ish life stories. Rather that waste your time listening to this guys issue’s you could go hang out with your friends, and maybe help them with their problems. I can promise in that situation different outcomes and functionality that makes an impact, I dare you to try and drink as much wine as I did in this game while hearing your friend talk. In other words, real life is more of a video game than Dinner Date.

Terrible news. I hit 150 hours played and can no longer launch Dinner Date. I think I got banned :(

CONCRETE EVIDENCE THAT THE TRIBUNAL IS A BROKEN SYSTEM

Good news everyone I am unbanned from Dinner Date. 151 hours in now and she hasn't showed up. I hope I didn't miss her while I was banned. Guess I'll wait to see if she comes back.

247 hours. I reinstalled the game. Lost my save file so I gotta start over. Waited about 8 hours and she hasn't shown up. She's definitely coming this time though. I can feel it.

287 hours. Maybe she fell asleep on the train. Soup is getting cold at this point.

302 hours. Maybe she's infected with a deadly contagious disease and has been quarentined for public safety. Probably a good thing she hasn't showed up if that's the case. In other news, the day/night cycle of this game is really unrealistic.

314 hours. Maybe she's trapped indoors by a blizzard and can't leave her house. Guess I'll have to keep waiting.
