Steve/Tony dating sim sign-up info & FAQ

If you haven't heard the news, there's going to be a free Steve/Tony multiverse dating game! (If you have heard the news, bear with us—this is a new announcement because we've updated a few things). Follow us on Tumblr to get the latest updates on development and launch and/or hang out with us on Discord as we make the game!

About the game

The Steve/Tony multiverse dating sim (name TBD) will be a visual novel-style game that’s mostly dialogue with some simple minigames thrown in. You'll play as a Steve or Tony from one of the many universes that exist who’s thrown into a rift in reality with a bunch of other Steves and Tonys. You’ll get to decide whom to work with to invent, fight, flirt, and date your way back home. 

Who we are

We're a team of passionate Steve/Tony fans who have come together to write and illustrate the dating game of our dreams, coded by the wonderfully talented @v-thinks-on. You can read more about us here.

How this works

In order to make the game, we need writers, artists, and more. Here's a brief summary of the process:

Love interest route writers script a story arc for the player character to go on if the player selects that writer’s love interest character to date. Love interest route writers can write both the love interest and player character's dialogue on their own or with a partner(s).

Artists create the visuals of the game, including character art, backgrounds, and more, based on the scripts. 

Once we have all the scripts and art, our coders will put the game together.

For a more detailed overview of the game-making process and each team role, please refer to our FAQ.

How to apply to the team

Please email [email protected] with the following information:

Confirmation that you’re over 18 (just let us know you’re 18+; we’re not asking you to share personal info)

The best way(s) to contact you

And depending on which role you want to apply for, please include:

Writers

What character you’d like to write for (universe and name). If you have multiple, please order by preference. To help you choose, here is a list of universes we have writers for and available universes (if you want a universe not on this list, that means it's available)!

Do you want to write alone or with a partner(s)?

A writing sample focusing on Steve and Tony (link, attachment, or text in the email body), ideally with a good amount of dialogue. This doesn’t have to be a complete piece with a beginning, middle, and end; it's more to get a sense of your style and understanding of characterization, so all we ask is that it’s easy to follow. This can be something you’ve already written or you can write something new for this application. We don't have a minimum word requirement; if we need more from you, we'll let you know

Artists

We'll be sharing an interest check soon, so if you're an artist, watch this space! If you're not on Tumblr much and you're afraid of missing out, contact us and we'll add you to our mailing list

People with other skills

If you have any other skills that you think will help make the game better (for example, you’re a musician and you’d love to produce music for the game or you're a coder who'd love to help @v-thinks-on), get into contact with us.

Contact us

Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions (don't forget our FAQ!). You can reach us by email, Discord, Tumblr Messenger, askbox, Twitter DM, or Bluesky DM. Thank you!

Adopt a Steve or Tony to write!

If you're a writer interested in our Steve/Tony dating game (see our "about" page and FAQ if this is the first time you're hearing about us), here are some Steves and Tonys who need you to adopt them, pretty please. 🙏❤️ (Imagine them looking piteously at you with puppy eyes from a cardboard box with an "adopt me" sign on their necks. 🥺) To make life easier, you can sign up with a friend if you want to have a writing partner or team, and if you're particularly ambitious and bighearted, you can also claim multiple characters to write.

616 Steve (we have a writer, but they're looking for a co-writer!)

New Ultimates Steve and Tony

Next Avengers Tony

Secret War: Civil War Steve and Tony

Secret War: Planet Hulk Steve

Ultimates Steve

If the Steve or Tony you want to write isn't on the list, that means they're available! We welcome almost all Steves and Tonys. The only exceptions are a Steve or Tony who doesn't exist in the universe you picked (e.g., we won't accept Noir Steve as Steve doesn't exist in Noir), Hydra Cap, and Steves and Tonys who are canonically under 18 (for clarity, AvAc Steve and Tony and New Ultimates (6160) Tony are allowed), though we'll be considering universe eligibility on a case-by-case basis as we may not know or remember all the universes that exist. Most likely, it'll be okay. You can see the most up-to-date list of universes and more info about co-writers here.

Eager to claim a Steve or Tony of your own? Come sign up! We'd love to have you on the team.

[stevetonydatingsim]

616 Tony and New Ults Steve are now taken, but there are plenty more Steves and Tonys waiting to be snatched up! We need 🫵 your 🫵 help to whittle this list down even further so take home a Steve or Tony today.

We'll be announcing who isn't available anymore on here, but you can also look at the list of universes linked in bold at the end of the original post anytime for more info.

1872 Tony has now been completely claimed! Writers, come get your Steves and Tonys and join our team.

Steve/Tony dating sim player character base poll

If you haven't seen the announcement yet, we're creating an original Steve and an original Tony to be our two player character options for the game...and we want your input! 🫵 While these will be original creations, we'll be pulling inspiration from existing universes (and maybe even fanon 👀).

The simplest way for us to start is to use a canon universe as our soup base before adding in the special, unique ingredients to concoct our very own Steve and Tony (for example, maybe we'll use MCU as our foundation for player character Steve, but Tony found Steve instead of SHIELD through a SI expedition).

And where do you come in? To make life easier, we narrowed down the options to the two most popular universes, 616 and MCU, and we want you to vote which universe you'd like us to use as our foundation for our player Steve and Tony!

So please vote and signal boost this post. If someone you know would love to weigh in but don't have a Tumblr account (or if you want to elaborate on your vote but don't want to do it publicly in the notes on this post), they can email us at [email protected] or DM us on Bluesky or Twitter with their vote.

Once we have the results, we'll be building a more extensive poll so you can have a hand in shaping our Steve and Tony player characters. Make sure to follow us so you don't miss that poll.

Happy voting!

Which universe should we use as the foundation for our player character Steve and Tony options?

616 for both characters

MCU for both characters

616 for Steve, MCU for Tony

616 for Tony, MCU for Steve

Voting ended onJul 22, 2025

We've been quiet the past few months...and now we can reveal why. We've made some changes to the game-making process so that it'll be easier and hopefully more enticing for people to sign up. You can read about the changes here! Our sign-up post above has also been edited because of those changes and because we've filled the project mod position as well.

As a reminder, we're still taking writer applications so please sign up or spread the word. Regardless of how new you are to the fandom or how experienced or not experienced of a writer you are, we'd love to consider you for our team. 😊

[stevetonydatingsim]

Some changes

Ahem. We have an announcement! The mods have put their heads together to streamline the game-making process. We hope these changes will not only make it easier for people to sign up and create the game but also make it an enjoyable game to play.

TWO PLAYER OPTIONS

To make life easier for everyone, there will only be two player character (PC) options, an original Steve and an original Tony, rather than a lot of canon Steves and Tonys. We realized that if we had multiple PC options, e.g., 616 Steve, MCU Steve, AA Steve, the PCs’ characterizations would be virtually nonexistent and true character development would be hazy due to the constraints that creating a structure encompassing a big number of PCs poses. Narrowing it down to one canon Steve and Tony as PCs posed problems as well. This change will add much more variety and customization to the game, which means it'll be fun to replay multiple times too.

LOVE INTEREST ROUTE SCRIPTWRITING

The decision above streamlines the game-making process considerably, especially the writing, because essentially one script will just consist of two characters: one love interest (LI) and one PC instead of one LI and a gazillion PCs that the player may potentially choose to play as. This will help make writing feel more natural, and therefore it'll be much easier and quicker for writers to work on their scripts!

**Love interest route writers can now write the entire script (both the LI and PC's dialogue) themselves, or they can partner with someone to split up the work. We have more info in our FAQ.**

DIALOGUE/INTERACTION APPROVAL SYSTEM

We're now able to include dialogue/interaction options where the player can influence the relationship they'll have with the LI they're pursuing. You can keep things neutral, improve your relationship with the LI, or worsen your relationship. Towards the end of the game, this will affect what outcome you get with the LI you choose as your final/"true love" LI. You can even unlock some extra dialogue during dates too depending on what dynamic you have with the LI!

NUMBER OF DATES PER DATING PHASE PER LI

Because we're simplifying things, love interest route writers can write as many dates in a date phase as they'd like (and players can go on as many dates with an LI and date multiple LIs at a time per date phase)!

MINIGAMES

As of now, we're shelving minigames. We initially introduced the idea because we believed minigames would cut down on the amount of work an LI writer would have to do, but on second thought, minigames are extremely complicated. From our research, it seems the majority of VN players prefer not having minigames anyway, so we firmly believe this won't affect gameplay whatsoever.

DEMO

We know this is a lot of information, and it can be hard to wrap your mind around everything. To help our writers and people thinking of signing up as writers (and anyone who's just curious too!), we’re planning to make a rough demo to show what the game will look like and have a script that accompanies that demo so writers can get a sense of the script format.

If all of this sounds exciting and you're interested in signing up, here's our sign-up info post!

And if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us (don't forget our FAQ, which has been updated to reflect these changes). You can reach us by email, Discord, Tumblr Messenger, askbox, Twitter DM, or Bluesky DM.

Please state if you have any experience running events, projects, or games (either fandom or non-fandom is fine) and any skills you believe will be handy, e.g., you're amazing with Google Sheets, you're a scheduling and coordinating whiz, you can wrangle large groups

Availability: 1. Do you use Discord? and 2. How much time do you have to dedicate to being a project mod? While we don't have something going on every week and it's fine if you're busy sometimes, we need a go-getter who is easy to reach on Discord and can make sure the project progresses at a good clip

People with other skills

Steve/Tony dating sim sign-up info & FAQ

If you haven't heard the news, there's going to be a free Steve/Tony multiverse dating game! (If you have heard the news, bear with us—this is a new announcement because we've updated a few things). Follow us on Tumblr to get the latest updates on development and launch and/or hang out with us on Discord as we make the game!

About the game

The Steve/Tony multiverse dating sim (name TBD) will be a visual novel-style game that’s mostly dialogue with some simple minigames thrown in. You'll play as a Steve or Tony from one of the many universes that exist who’s thrown into a rift in reality with a bunch of other Steves and Tonys. You’ll get to decide whom to work with to invent, fight, flirt, and date your way back home. 

Who we are

We're a team of passionate Steve/Tony fans who have come together to write and illustrate the dating game of our dreams, coded by the wonderfully talented @v-thinks-on. You can read more about us here.

How this works

In order to make the game, we need writers for the player characters (characters you can choose to play the game as) and love interest characters (characters the player can interact with and romance), artists for the visuals, and more. Here's a brief summary of the process:

Love interest writers script a story arc for the player character to go on if the player selects that writer’s love interest character to date

Player character writers fill in the dialogue for their characters in the love interest scripts

Artists create the visuals of the game, including character art, backgrounds, and more, based on the scripts

For a more detailed overview of the game-making process and each team role, please refer to our FAQ.

How to apply to the team

Please email [email protected] with the following information:

Confirmation that you’re over 18 (just let us know you’re 18+; we’re not asking you to share personal info)

The best way(s) to contact you

And depending on which role you want to apply for, please include:

Writers (currently taking sign-ups for love interest writers only; we'll announce when we're open for player writer applications)

What character you’d like to write for (universe and name). If you have multiple, please order by preference. To help you choose, here is a list of universes we have writers for and available universes (if you want a universe not on this list, that means it's available)!

Do you want to write alone or with a partner(s)?

A writing sample focusing on Steve and Tony (link, attachment, or text in the email body), ideally with a good amount of dialogue. This doesn’t have to be a complete piece with a beginning, middle, and end; it's more to get a sense of your style and understanding of characterization, so all we ask is that it’s easy to follow. This can be something you’ve already written or you can write something new for this application. We don't have a minimum word requirement; if we need more from you, we'll let you know

Artists

We'll be sharing an interest check either the first or second week of April, so if you're an artist, watch this space! If you're not on Tumblr much and you're afraid of missing out, contact us and we'll add you to our mailing list

Project managers

Please state if you have any experience running events, projects, or games (either fandom or non-fandom is fine) and any skills you believe will be handy, e.g., you're amazing with Google Sheets, you're a scheduling and coordinating whiz, you can wrangle large groups

Availability: 1. Do you use Discord? and 2. How much time do you have to dedicate to being a project mod? While we don't have something going on every week and it's fine if you're busy sometimes, we need a go-getter who is easy to reach on Discord and can make sure the project progresses at a good clip

People with other skills

If you have any other skills that you think will help make the game better (for example, you’re a musician and you’d love to produce music for the game or you're a coder who'd love to help @v-thinks-on), get into contact with us.

Things in the pipeline

we're creating a FAQ! If you have any questions that you feel would be good to add to it, please share them with us. A FAQ can only be as good as the questions we come up with

a doc of likes/dislikes, preferred communication contact methods/styles, preferred work styles, etc. for writers seeking co-writers to collaborate with. If you're interested in teaming up with someone to work on a script, let us know what information would be helpful to have so we can try to pair up people who will be compatible

a new announcement post (ideally after the first two bullets are done) because we made a lot of changes and unfortunately, if you make updates to a post on Tumblr, the old versions without the revisions you made still exist 😅

Steve/Tony dating sim announcement & writer casting call!

The best part about a multiverse is all the different Steves and Tonys we get—and imagining them meeting. And kissing. And flirting. And maybe doing something a little spicier.

But why stick with imagining that when we can make it a reality? When we can make a Steve/Tony multiverse dating game? 

That’s right, we’re making a game and it'll be free to play! What exactly does that entail? The Steve/Tony dating sim (name TBD. We’re all ears for any ideas you have) will be a visual novel-style game that’s mostly dialogue with some simple minigames thrown in. You get to play as a Steve or Tony from one of the many universes that exist who’s thrown into a rift in reality with a bunch of other Steves and Tonys. You’ll get to decide whom to work with to invent, fight, flirt, and date your way back home. 

We’ll be sharing updates on the game development and launch on this Tumblr so make sure to follow us!

Who we are

The Steve/Tony dating sim team is made up of passionate Steve/Tony fans who have come together to write and illustrate the dating game of our dreams, coded by the wonderfully talented @v-thinks-on. You can read more about us here.

How this works

In order to make the game, we need writers for the player and love interest characters, artists for the visuals, and more. At this point, we’re looking specifically for love interest writers, but make sure to follow us as we’ll be looking for volunteers for other roles in the coming months!

Love interest writers can either work on their own or with a partner(s) to plot out and write a simple narrative arc and series of dates for a potential love interest character (a character that the player can choose to interact with and date). They construct the foundational beats for the story and dialogue for the love interest character, and they provide choices for player responses (you can indicate that the player can respond angrily, morosely, or happily to a certain line, but you’re not writing the player dialogue yourself). Later, player writers will insert responses to the existing love interest’s dialogue you wrote. It’s kind of like roleplay! 

For example, your script may look something like this:

Tony616 “So, you’re a Steve, huh” If <angry response>: Tony616 “Sorry I asked” If <happy response>: Tony616 “You’re a cheerful one, eh?” [the player gets closer to Tony616]

To get a more detailed understanding of how this works, see this guide here. We’re also happy to answer any questions, and we have a Discord server where we brainstorm and talk as a group.

Existing love interest storylines (more to come later!)

The following characters have arcs that are outlined already, and their writers are looking for a partner to collaborate with. Here are short pitches to give you a sense of each character’s emotional journey through the game.

616 Tony 

Iron Man V.1 128 Tony is newly sober for the first time and still hiding that he’s Iron Man. The player can either help Tony open up or drive him to drinking again. 

1872 Tony

Pre-canon Tony has lost faith in humanity and himself. Will the player convince him to get back on his feet? Or will he think everyone's better off with him at the bottom of a bottle?

616 Steve 

Avengers V4 Steve has just returned from the dead after his fight with his Tony about the Superhero Registration Act. He wants to trust Player, but can he?

MCU Steve

Post-2012 Avengers Steve is lost and doesn't know his place in the new century. Through his interactions with the player, he finds his home and purpose.

Don’t see a character you want to write for on this list? 

You can volunteer to write any Steve or Tony you want! In fact, we actively want more Steves and Tonys. This is a multiverse dating sim, after all, so the more the merrier. To help you choose, here is a list of universes we have writers for and available universes (if you want a universe not on this list, that means it's available)! Just contact us with the canon character you’re interested in writing for and whether you’d like to work solo or with a partner(s).

The only exceptions we have are a Steve or Tony who doesn't exist in the universe you picked (e.g., we won't accept Noir Steve as he doesn't exist in Noir) as well as Hydra Cap and Steves and Tonys who are canonically under 18 due to the nature of the game, the type of game people want to make/play, and how the game-making process works.

We don't foresee issues with other universes, particularly as we're in the "you do you"/"YKINMKATO" (your kink is not my kink and that's okay) camp when it comes to fandom. However, we'll be considering other universes on a case-by-case basis as we may not know or remember all the universes that exist. Because of this, we recommend giving more than one character option in your application if possible!

How to apply

Please email [email protected] with the following information:

Confirmation that you’re over 18 (just let us know you’re 18+; we’re not asking you to share personal info)

The best way(s) to contact you
