LOVE alt delete is a game about chatbots, their inability to understand people, and our inability to understand them.
It's a game rife with frustration, misinterpretation, and secrets; but it's a simple story at its core. It's ███████.
Welcome!
You are a QA tester assigned to Basel I look forward to falling in love with you ❤️ , a chatbot. You are to go on "dates" with her.
A secondary chabot, named Liste I-I'll do my best 😅 , will act on your behalf during these "dates". You may control her by typing prompts such as:
renpy.prompt("love")
renpy.prompt("hate")
renpy.prompt("trash")
Upon completion, you will be duly compensated and their memories will be deleted We kindly remind you to review the terms of your contract with us, not limited to but including the Non-Disclosure Agreement. .
We at Bicameral® Founded in 200X, we pride ourselves on cutting-edge solutions to age-old questions. hope you enjoy your time in this simulated dating closed beta.

This game seems really cool, but I'm having a hard time creating prompts that allow me to make any progress (even more so because they have to be short enough to actually fit inside the chat menu).
Do you have any advice for making prompts that allow story progression?
There’s a handful of prompts that are especially useful for progression, though saying them here is a big spoiler ofc. We’ll be adding in the next update a few extra nudges towards those prompts, but for now if you want advice:
click for hint
You might get some ideas from what’s on the desktop.Thanks for the tip!
