Namco High is a Dating Sim by Bandai Namco Entertainment and Homestuck author Andrew Hussie. The game stars the Cousin of the Prince from Katamari Damacy as they navigate the romantic ins and outs of a high school setting. It features several characters from Namco Bandai's library (such as Lolo from Klonoa and the aforementioned ship from Galaga) and three "exchange students" from Homestuck. Six of the characters (Al B. Tross, Anti-Bravoman, Galaga, Lolo, Meowkie and Valkyrie) are free, and you can get others by purchasing either single characters or characters packs.When it was up, you could play the game on the ShiftyLook website. Sadly, the website is no longer functioning. However, there is a working mirror up here which can be downloaded here (with all the paid characters too!).

The final battle with Evil Namco High generally consists of your character and their romantic partner leaping in, followed by cutting straight to the conclusion. You may get a few other details to make you wish you'd seen more. Meowkie, for example, is apparently quite the Badass Adorable.

Multiple Endings
 Namco High (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: You get a different ending based on who you choose to fight alongside you when you go to rescue Pac-Man from Evil Namco High. From there, you can get three endings: Golden Ending: Successfully obtain your character of choice's three events. You fight with them together and save Pac-Man from Evil Namco High. After the credits, you will get a CG involving Cousin and the character you romanced. Mediocre Ending: You only get two out of three of the character's events, but you talk to the character you choose the day before Pac-Man gets kidnapped. This ending results in you winning, but you don't get the CG. Bad End: You only talk to your chosen character once. When you both go to fight Evil Namco High, you are either defeated or the character you were with grows apart from you (not talking to Valkyrie the third day but the other two still results in a sad ending).

Spiritual Successor: The bizarre premise being the hook for a Dating Sim might seem rather familiar to those who remember Hatoful Boyfriend, the game where a human girl tries to date sentient birds. The fact some of the love interests in this game are similar to the dateable birds doesn't help, like Anghel and Davesprite or Yuuya and Al B. Tross.

So Beautiful, It's a Curse
 Namco High (Video Game) / int_3b9b21c9
comment
So Beautiful, It's a Curse: The description for the Galaga ship about being "THE MOST ALLURING, CAPTIVATING, AND ENCHANTING THING IN THE UNIVERSE"? It's not an exaggeration. The constant attention and favoritism it receives from others has made it unable to accomplish anything on its own merits, and it thinks Cousin is only nice to it because of its beautiful hull. Donko has similar issues stemming from her cuteness and popularity; one of the things she initially likes about Cousin is that she can rely on them to be sincere rather than pouring on the flattery.

comment
Ambiguous Gender: Cousin will always be referred to by non-gender-specific pronouns, to allow players to interpret Cousin as whatever gender and sexuality they prefer. Being that Hussie has previously encouraged gay and lesbian ships in Homestuck, this isn't surprising. However, Taira calls Cousin "Dude", and Davesprite possibly refers to Cousin as a "boyfriend" (he might also be referring to himself from Cousin's point of view; it's unclear). Possibly Galaga as well.

comment
Fish out of Temporal Water: Valkyrie somehow ended up in the modern day, even though she's from a Medieval Stasis series. This doesn't seem to stop her too much, since she pretty quickly picks up Leet Lingo and other quirks of the high school setting. As it's later explained, she was sent forward in time by Zouna, a time wizard from her series. She's concerned about what Zouna is doing in her own time period, and she's attending Namco High primarily so she can find a way to get back.

For Your Own Good: Mr. Driller's father tells him and sincerely believes that forbidding him from digging is for his own good, as he fears that Mr. Driller is poised to become just as obsessed with it as he once was. In the end he realizes it was wrong to take something so important away from his son and that together they can learn moderation in digging.

High School AU: Many of the characters present in Namco High either were adults or never even go to high school in their series of choice. This is particularly noticeable with Mr. Driller's unnamed Missing Mom. In the actual Mr. Driller series, his mom is Toby Masuyo, who in this game is both much younger and completely unrelated.

Totally 18: Parodied. The legal page has very faint text at the bottom, reading "18 18 all characters 18 everyone 18" despite the fact that Namco High is entirely free of adult situations. Presumably, everyone is in their senior year, though Hiromi offhandedly mentions she's 19 (because she was held back a year).

Almost Kiss: In Mr. Driller's route, he and Cousin almost kiss on the roof after they give him a Rousing Speech and reignite his love for digging, but Pac-Man interrupts them. Later on, however, he gives Cousin a chaste kiss on the cheek.

Interspecies Romance
 Namco High (Video Game) / int_8485d41a
comment
Interspecies Romance: Cousin describes themself as an alien in Aki's route, which makes every romance in the game interspecies. Even if one chooses to instead interpret them as Ambiguously Human or simply doesn't know Cousin is an alien, this still applies when choosing to pursue Meowkie (a cat), Davesprite (a half-crow, half-human Exposition Fairy), and Terezi (a different kind of alien). Lolo might count as well, being Little Bit Beastly.

Bait-and-Switch: Terezi tells Cousin they remind her of her old partner, who was a grouchy person. Homestuck readers probably assume she means Karkat. In reality, she's talking about Pyralspite, her favorite Scalemate (stuffed dragon toy). Cousin accidentally rolled it up into their Katamari, sparking the caliginous feelings Terezi has for them.

"Groundhog Day" Loop

comment
"Groundhog Day" Loop: After your first run through with Davesprite, it turns out that his fears of remembering the previous run through were unfortunately correct. Davesprite will watch you run through the game as many times as you please, remembering each one. And the worst part? If you go through Davesprite's route again, he acknowledges this, but has the exact same lines of dialog as before. Davesprite could relive the same romance over and over, and have no damn way to stop it.

Maybe Ever After: At the end of Hiromi's route. Her relationship with her partner Toby is very heavily implied to be a romantic one, with there also being the implication that her feelings for Cousin aren't quite platonic either. At the end the three of them ride off on Hiromi's motorcycle together into the sunset with all of them having become friends; whether its the start of a polyamorous relationship between the three of them or simply Hiromi/Toby and Cousin being a dear friend isn't said.

Offscreen Moment of Awesome
 Namco High (Video Game) / int_c5b47b36
comment
Offscreen Moment of Awesome: The final battle with Evil Namco High generally consists of your character and their romantic partner leaping in, followed by cutting straight to the conclusion. You may get a few other details to make you wish you'd seen more. Meowkie, for example, is apparently quite the Badass Adorable. Cousin's speech to Dig Dug that convinces him to not only give Mr. Driller his drills back so he can help save Pac-Man but also team up with the two of them himself happens off screen and is just summarized by Dig Dug. Apparently they were very persuasive.

Flat-Earth Atheist: Jane, hardcore. She describes herself as a "hard-nosed skeptic" and refuses to believe that anything out of the ordinary happens at Namco High, taking this to absurd extremes such as by claiming that a classroom is too small to hold a spaceship (even though Galaga is sitting right there) and failing to realize that her friends Terezi and Davesprite are anything other than cosplay enthusiasts. At the end of her route, she admits that maaaybe some strange things do happen at the school.
