Monospaced Lovers combines several genres. It is a platformer, an adventure, a visual novel, and a bullet hell. Here you need to jump on platforms, explore locations, complete quests, chat with NPCs, look for secrets and clues, solve jump puzzles, solve puzzles, and even fight bosses. Fights with bosses resemble boss fights from scrolling shooters, but with the only difference that here you can’t shoot back. The heroine simply has to dodge a barrage of enemy bullets and shells. To win, she needs to hold out for a certain amount of time, trying to avoid getting hurt. You can control her movements using the keyboard or gamepad. She can walk left and right, dash in both directions, interact with the environment, and jump.
