It's pretty rare for me to talk about video games, especially ones not out of Japan. But Galactic Arms Race caught my eye for a couple reasons. First, the acronym is GAR, which makes me giggle quietly to myself. Second, it's a top down shooter with "evolving weapons." The game generates new weapons based on the type of weapons that the player prefers to use.
It's an interesting concept, and it got me thinking about whether or not such a thing could be applied to say...dating sims. For instance, if you seem to chase after girls with glasses more often, the game will introduce more girls with glasses as new chaseable characters. And if you prefer the tsundere types, more and more girls you meet will suffer from violent and adorable moodswings until you have a megane who bakes you million dollar cookies, then cuts your head off if you don't confess to her. Good times. We'll call it Machine Operated girlfriEnds, or MOE for short.
