Love Tester Overview
Love Tester was one of those simple, curious games you'd find during the Flash era. It didn't have complex graphics or a story. It was just a small, straightforward program that promised to measure something intangible. You'd stumble upon it on a website, often while looking for something else entirely.
You control nothing but a cursor. The moment to moment play involves typing two names into separate fields and then clicking a button to start the analysis. The main objective is to see a numerical score, a percentage that supposedly quantifies the romantic potential between those two names. Recognizable mechanics include watching a progress bar fill and little animated hearts or graphics appear during the calculation. The pacing is instant; there is no difficulty beyond spelling the names correctly. It feels like a digital fortune cookie, a brief, amusing diversion that held your attention for exactly as long as the fake calculation took to complete.
