ValiDate: Struggling Singles in your Area by ValiDate Game
ValiDate: Struggling Singles in your Area is a visual novel about thirteen struggling singles navigating through soul-sucking 9-to-5s, quarter-life crises, and the harsh truths millennials learn as soon as they hit their 20’s.
Set in the Jercy City area, our cast of lovers trudge through the dregs of capitalism - a journey, a transition - a rite-of-passage that leads into uncertain mid-adulthood. On one side but not yet out on the other, 13 playable characters find romance amongst cosplay, trash mixtapes, and even poetry straight from the soul.
With over 30 routes to choose from and hours of content, the lives of these singles are in your good (or bad!) decision-making hands.
There are a lot of different definitions of generational cohorts, but I believe all definitions of millennial imply being born before 2000 (and many definitions put the upper limit closer to mid to late 90s).
As such even the youngest millennials are well into their 20s and the vast majority of millennials are in their 30s (with the first group of millennials entering their 40s).
It's Gen Z/Zoomers that are dealing with the life experience of their early 20s.
Maybe it's set in 2010?
That could be a possibility. Funny to think of the 2010s entering "old school" territory.
I think the dev probably just used millennial as shorthand for "young people". Although in reality millenials are increasingly a middle age generation (I say this as millenial in his late 30s😀).
