Game Title: Love Love Raid

Genre: Simulation, Visual Novel

Creator: LiveinV

Q. Hello. Please introduce yourself, the creator, LivinV.

A. Hello. I am Park Jun-hyeok, the representative of the 'Live in V' team that is developing the AI simulation game 'Love Love Raid'. Our 'Live in V' team is developing games with the vision of creating a 'living virtual world'. As a first step, we are building an AI NPC system, and we started developing 'Love Love Raid' because we thought that the game genre that can best express this is simulation. Our goal is to continuously create characters that feel alive!

Q. AI Love Love Raid is unique. I have a lot of questions after watching the first trailer. Could you please introduce Love Love Raid to me? (Development process, synopsis, goals, etc.)

A. [Game Introduction] 'Love Love Raid' is an AI game where the story progresses through dialogue without any choices.

[Game Features] Just like the in-game video in the trailer, you will actually chat with characters, and the characters will respond and act according to their own personalities. When multiple characters appear at once, they will fight each other. You can experience deeper emotions by remembering and responding to previous conversations. Since I thought that seeing the set ending of Miyeonsi is also a fun element, the ending and plot of Love Love Raid are set. However, the story during that process is the core goal of creating a special story for the player.

[Synopsis] The raid buddies you used to play with in RPG games were actually beautiful girls?! A heart-pounding love story that starts from the first offline gathering! (It's still in the detailed stage, so only the beginning story has been planned. I would like to ask for many opinions from fans who are not yet familiar with the game.)

[Vision] I want to continue adding attractive characters. You can choose according to your taste. I am also considering a mode where you can continue the conversation after the ending, like 'Girlfriend Mode'.

Q. I think the gameplay of AI's Love Love Raid will change depending on how the user speaks. However, I'm also curious about what happens in the game if you use sexual or violent words or swear words.

A. As you said, the gameplay changes depending on the user's response! We want to solve this by having the character 'reject'. If you say something sexual or violent to the person you're dating, the person's favorability towards you will drop sharply, right? Rather than preventing this with the 'game UI', it would be more natural and immersive to make it 'game over'.

Q. I am curious whether it will respond even if I speak in a foreign language other than Korean. Is it true that English typing is not supported and only Korean is supported?

A. (1) If you speak in a foreign language, you will be answered in Korean. However, for overseas export versions, we plan to support answers in each language.

(2) English typing support is available! Even if you make a typo like sp(yes), it will understand. Even for English words, it will understand well and answer appropriately.

Q. As a game developer, what age do you think Love Love Raid should be when developing it? I'm also curious as to whether it's rated 15 or not suitable for youth.

A. Right now, we're setting it at 15 years old. But I think it could change depending on the players' opinions. We're working on it with an open mind!

Q. I understand that you are participating in Play Expo. I am also looking forward to the distribution of goods. I am also curious whether the game demo for Play Expo can be enjoyed both online and offline (on platforms such as Stove, Steam, or Google Drive downloads, etc.). I am also curious whether the game can be played even if the Internet is disconnected during the game.

A. The demo for Play Expo is available (offline) at the Free Play Zone + developer booths. (Online) You can download it at the Stove Online Exhibition Hall and experience the demo until May 31st! Among these, goods will be provided to those who experience it at the developer booth and leave feedback. Unfortunately, you cannot play the game without internet. We would appreciate your generous understanding that this is for the sake of smooth conversation.

Q. Is the store page a Play Expo limited demo? Will it go down after the limited time ends? Or will the demo continue to be updated?

A. Stove will continue to be registered until the launch. This first demo version is on May 31st, but we will continue to add content and show new versions of the demo!

Q. I'm curious about whether I can talk to the AI if I purchase the main game, or if I need to purchase a separate usage fee or subscription. So I'm curious about the price of the game. Can I ask how much it costs?

A. This is a cautious answer, but the main part is based on the general amount of money for minors, which is between 15,000 and 20,000 won. As for the girlfriend mode mentioned in the question, we plan to provide it as a usage fee or subscription!

Q. I have a question about whether the server will be maintained. I would like to see something added in the form of DLC. It is an AI dating simulation/interactive visual novel. Is the game a work with an ending and a set play time? Or is it an infinite game that can be played continuously? I am curious about the girlfriend mode. Is it a decoration for the girlfriend MODIFICATION?

A. That's right! Nevertheless, I think it's important to provide a good game at a price that minor fans are familiar with, and to make our team more known. Please buy a lot when it's released. The game has an ending, and the play time is... still being prepared. I'm thinking about making the girlfriend mode a mode where you can continue the conversation, and if possible, I'm also thinking about releasing it as a mobile app to do things like give you a wake-up call.

Q. I would like to know the platform information you are releasing on. I am also curious about language support. I know it will be released on PC first, but I am curious about the platform.

A. I am thinking of steam and stove! I am thinking of languages in Korean, Chinese, Japanese and English.

Q. I would like to know about the Tumblbug funding plan.

A. We are planning to fund it in the third quarter, but nothing has been decided yet!

Q. Q4 2025: I'm looking forward to the early access of version 0.9. I can't help but talk about games. Men. Women. And are you talking about the head of the game guild? Did you also write the scenario?

A. I am writing a scenario, but the game story is not my story. I want to show exciting stories that gamers have imagined at least once.

Q. Lastly, is there anything you would like to say to the users who are waiting for the game?

I'm happy to have this great opportunity to greet you all!
I think the most important thing is to show it through a game! We will give you a new experience with live beautiful girls.
Also, we will continue to show you many things and strive to become a healthy game development team that listens to users' stories.
