Lovelink is a free-to-play romantic visual novel app published by Ludia where the player matches with different engaging and appealing romantic partners in a Tinder-esque interface. I wrote the storylines for seasons two and three of the time traveler characters (Nicholas Adley/Elizabeth Baker), season five of the romantic photographer characters (Adam Johnson/Dominic Wright), and seasons one and two of the charming fae character (River Nightshade).

On this project, I…

• Wrote 54 episodes (or over eight hours) of interactive romance content for Lovelink across multiple romance subgenres and love interests, including a passionate photographer, a beguiling fae, and a time-travelling English gentleman.

• Outlined five seasons of story content, including special “asynchronous” episodes that can occur at any time during a storyline.

• Wrote and refined dialogue choices that allow players to express themselves via multiple distinct personality options and designed “premium choice content” that is appealing, but non-punishing for those who choose not to pay.

• Carefully studied previous story arcs before writing follow-up seasons, creating cohesive, naturally evolving storylines that call back to previous events (including recurring character, Leonardo DaVinci).

• Translated studio direction for a new character, River Nightshade, into dialogue that embodies the character’s playful, teasing, and seductive personality.

• Navigated different levels of “spiciness” for different audiences, taking different approaches to sex scenes and intimate moments based on the interests of a given player.

• Worked closely with an editor, responding positively to their notes and addressing them in a timely fashion.
