FOCUS on YOU, developed and published by Smilegate Entertainment, is a virtual reality romance experience that aims to capture the delicate emotions of youth, first love, and human connection through immersive technology. Rather than presenting a traditional game structure filled with objectives and branching outcomes, it functions as a soft, emotionally driven narrative where interaction, atmosphere, and intimacy take center stage. The player assumes the role of a high school student and aspiring photographer who meets Han Yua, a cheerful and somewhat shy girl who becomes the subject of both your lens and your affection. From this simple premise, the game constructs an experience that feels less like a simulation and more like an emotional memory you are allowed to inhabit. The game opens gently, placing the player in familiar, everyday spaces—a park, a café, a classroom, and other quietly beautiful environments that act as stages for the growing relationship between you and Han Yua. The photography mechanic serves as the primary form of interaction, but it also becomes a metaphor for focus and attention: each photograph you take represents not only artistic expression but emotional investment. As you position the camera, adjust angles, or wait for the perfect moment to capture Han Yua’s smile, the game makes you aware of how attention and empathy form the foundation of human connection. The moments shared are deliberately small—a conversation about dreams, a stroll through a park, a shy exchange of words—but they are presented with a sincerity that gives them weight. Visually, FOCUS on YOU is striking not because of technical prowess but because of its design choices. The environments are clean, pastel-toned, and infused with soft lighting that enhances the dreamlike mood. Han Yua’s animations, crafted through extensive motion capture work, display small gestures—slight head tilts, hesitant hand movements, and fleeting eye contact—that give her an authentic, lifelike presence. The realism is balanced with gentle stylization, which keeps the tone light and idealized rather than uncanny. This careful balance allows the game to immerse the player without crossing into discomfort. Combined with high-quality voice acting and subtle ambient sounds, these visual and auditory elements create a believable intimacy that makes each interaction feel personal and tender. The narrative unfolds linearly, with minimal player control beyond conversation choices and photo-taking segments. Rather than offering multiple paths or endings, the story flows naturally toward a single emotional conclusion. This simplicity can be seen as both a strength and a weakness. On one hand, it ensures that the pacing and emotional beats are consistent and well-timed, free from the mechanical distractions of branching design. On the other hand, players looking for depth, complexity, or replay value may find the experience limited. The entire story can be completed in just over an hour, making it feel more like a short film than a full-length game. However, additional downloadable content such as the “Studio” and “100th Day” expansions provide new interactions, outfits, and events that extend the life of the experience and reinforce the emotional continuity of the relationship. The heart of the game lies in its use of virtual reality to evoke genuine emotion. Through the VR headset, the distance between player and character dissolves. Han Yua’s proximity feels real—you can sense her presence as she looks directly at you, speaks softly, or reacts to your gaze. This immediacy is where FOCUS on YOU distinguishes itself from traditional visual novels or dating simulators. The sense of immersion transforms otherwise simple gestures into meaningful exchanges. Even the act of nodding in response or adjusting your perspective carries emotional significance. This is the game’s greatest achievement: using technology not to overwhelm with spectacle but to recreate the subtle tension and warmth of human connection. However, the game’s narrow scope also exposes its limitations. Beyond its emotional storytelling, there is little in terms of gameplay variety or mechanical challenge. The photography system, while thematically central, can feel repetitive, and interactions are often scripted. Technical issues occasionally surface, such as inconsistent tracking or small glitches that break immersion. Some players may also find the tone overly sentimental or the dialogue slightly predictable, echoing the idealized tropes of romance fiction. Still, these shortcomings are offset by the game’s sincerity and charm—it never feels manipulative or artificial, and its quiet pacing suits the themes it explores. FOCUS on YOU ultimately succeeds as an experiment in emotional VR storytelling. It delivers a heartfelt, human experience that lingers not because of its complexity but because of its authenticity. The bond you share with Han Yua feels innocent and personal, and the sense of presence that VR brings transforms what could have been a simple visual novel into something more intimate and contemplative. It is a brief experience, but it captures the essence of youthful affection with a sincerity rare in modern games. For those seeking high-intensity gameplay, it may feel slight; but for anyone interested in the emotional possibilities of virtual reality—how technology can make someone’s glance, smile, or silence feel real—FOCUS on YOU stands as a gentle, memorable example of what interactive storytelling can achieve when it focuses, quite literally, on the human heart. Rating: 9/10

This is what a VR dating sim should look like. Pros: great visuals, beautiful animations, realistic facial expressions Cons: too short, story is rushed and limited

Finished the first "path" of this grand visual novel of a VR Title. If you're on the fence about this game, it's on sale from the time of writing this. I highly recommend the game. It's something that VR has 𝙮𝙚𝙩 to accomplish. One day there will be an entire genre/platform like this with a freedom of movement, freedom of choice, NG+ type of experience. However, for now, we have to take what we can get with this game. I enjoy being able to experience what I felt a long time ago. And not that I'm not going to be able to ever experience a moment like this ever again, it's a refreshing view as a single guy to feel garnering a connection with someone while being able to capture a moment. Also, since the game can have no audio, at least for me, how I was able to solve it is like this: **Disclaimer: I'm on Windows 11 24H2 update** - Launch the game - Tab out and look at the sound settings in the lower right (or wherever you have your taskbar aligned to). - You should see your HMD, your audio interface for Windows, 𝘈𝘕𝘋 another audio device (mine said Realtek Audio) - 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 that audio driver It is also recommended to follow the guide the devs put in the community tab with Audio Mirroring too. Voila! The game should output to your HMD! I give this game 9 "take my pictures for this fashion contest" out of 10 "MC can't take a hint depending on the path you take"
