MARKET ANALYSIS

"Dating Simulation" games, otherwise known as "Dating-Sims", are a fairly popular genre in today's market.

This current trend is beginning to stray towards its eventual endpoint. We are already beginning to see the completely out there dating-sims arrive. "Date Everything" being the current 'wackiest' game I can thing of.

Despite this current trend, there are shockingly few dating-sims that involve mermaids, or fish of any kind for that matter. So, that on its own gives my game "Plenty of Fish" a fin up on the competition.

Beyond mermaid-similarities, one thing that a lot of dating-sim games are is "visual novels". This will not be a focus for "Plenty of Fish". We will have a large focus on the fishing gameplay between your mermaid dates.

One final item that seperates "Plenty of Fish" from the competition is our target of choice. Both the mermaids and the player character will be women. There was no conscious effort to make a game with only lesbians, but that is what we are rolling with now, and it is another niche that Plenty of Fish finds itself in.
