I've just handed my financial records over to a dishwasher aptly named Dishy in Date Everything. Sassy Chap Games' co-creative lead and voice actor Robbie Daymond prefaces my meet-cute with the kitchen appliance by calling him the "closest thing we have to a villain" in the studio's debut dating sim, so you could argue this is quite a rash move. But hey, sometimes you have to take risks to find out if you can make a love connection, right? I can talk to the dishwasher and give him what I'm sure is very necessary information thanks to a magical pair of glasses known as "dateviators". The special shades make the house I'm in come alive, and I mean that in the literal sense, as I can essentially fire hearts at objects to transform them into anthropomorphized versions before my eyes.
Producer and voice actor Amanda Hufford says the dishwasher is "a little unhinged", and I soon discover what that actually means. Dishy begins downloading my own "dishwashing experience", which begins with the sentient appliance saying "beep boop bop" in an unending cycle. Daymond points out that Eric Bauza, who has also played Bugs Bunny, is the voice of the character. I can't help laughing along with Hufford and Daymond as the beeps, bops, and boops go on and on and on. Just when it finally seems to be at an end, Dishy declares he's at last downloaded… one percent. No way. After all that? Now I have the option to quit this interaction, or keep it going, and I opt for the latter. I have to see how long this will actually go on for.
