How do you like your pro wrestlers? Whether you like them big and hairy, mysterious and deadly, oiled-up and angry or friendly and hideously-mutated, we've got the man for you!
In Wrestling With Emotions you'll take on the role of a lonely young wrestler, entering a new league and searching for the perfect match. Create a new persona using Team Lazerbeam's brand new "Look Out Lovers" (or LOL) character creation system! Then prepare to meet the man of your dreams as you speed-date your way through 8 unique hunks! Who will you choose to join you in a steamy embrace? Only you can decide!
Key features!
- Explore 400 unique possibilities as you use LOL to build your ultimate alter-ego!
- Speed-date your way through 8 sweaty studs!
- Advanced arousal system that secretly keeps track of how other wrestlers feel about you.
- 10 mega-excellent songs!
- Tons of state-of-the-art-punk graphics!
- Plus! Heaps of the kind of hilarious (and sometimes bewildering) writing and radical mechanics that have made Team Lazerbeam a household name!
We hope you'll enjoy this game, the latest from Team Lazerbeam; the dorks that brought you Snow Cones and Pizza Quest!
Wrestling With Emotions will return in 2017 with "WWE2: Summer of Sweat" 2024 with "Wrestling With Emotions: New Kid On The Block"!

I want to buy this, but I don't use Paypal. Is there any other way I can pay you directly for the game?
Hi there. Itch unfortunately doesn't offer any alternate payment options, so not sure what to suggest on that front.
But if you are keen to get your hands on Wrestling With Emotions we'd be happy to swing you a key. Join our Discord, leave a wrestling gif, and we'll shoot you a link via DM!

Bad Ass! I just joined your discord
hi. i just got the game in the bundle. but it says it wont run on my mac. mostly an FYI if there's a possibility of an update. I'm going to try to run it on a virtual machine in the meantime.
Hi! Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately none of our older games will run on 64 bit Mac OS.
The good news; we might just be working on an update for this one!
Last video for the demo
What a journey! Thanks as always Spuddies!
Always a pleasure and really looking forward to playing through the full game
Made another video for the new demo
Another one? YES! YES! YES!
Made a video for the WWE2 Demo
Love to see it! Thanks as always!
Loved playing it and really looking forward to the full release to see what's beyond Demo Dawg
I played this together with my partner and we honestly had such a fantastic time reading out and acting out these lovely and kindhearted wrestly boys <3
Such an incredibly sincere and lovely game! And i'm happy that we ended up with King Pretty Guy as our new partner🥰!
WE CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SEQUEL!!
After a full year on Bumble and Hinge with no matches nor dates, I was beginning to lose hope. Darkness was all around me until, one day, scrolling through the valleys of itch.io, I saw a light cresting over the mountains. Wrestling With you Emotions. Through this game, I found my wife and soon after our seventeen children. I thank God and Team Lazerbeam for bringing me here, to this state of euphoria and bliss. Thank you, thank you a hundred times thank you. Watch this video and see how I allowed the light that is love to pull me from my barbed coil in the darkest abyss. Thank you.
Kieran! Thank you so much! This just made my day - what an awesome let's play! posted a bunch of high fives and thanks on youtube as well - this was really lovely!
PS - So glad to hear that Wrestling With Emotions helped you find the mother of your 17 children!
Thank you! Me and my new wife found it to be a lovely experience. ;{)
this was freaking awesome! so much fun <3
Ah, that's so good to hear! Glad you enjoyed it! Would love to do a sequel someday!
Did that "Wrestlr" parody of your game by Free Lives ever get released publically?
Megafat! OMG - so sorry for this terribly late reply!
Unfortunately, I don't think that paraody game is online anywhere! It wasn't made by Free Lives, but rather Liver Fees, which is Robbie (who really does work for Free Lives) and JW and Kitty (who've done heaps of awesome things, the most recent being Minit). We're honored to have had our game bootlegged by them!
Thanks for the reply despite it being a bit late, wasn't expecting one but posted anyway on the off chance for one.
Bit disappointing that it wasn't posted online anywhere, but what can you do?
Yeah, what can you do? Play some Minit I guess?
This game was SUPER AWESOME!
Haha! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks heaps for playing!
This was amazing. The art style really complimented the whole mood of the game. I loved the wide range of characters and the hilarious dialogue. It almost had me crying at one point! Super awesome twist on speed-dating sims. Thanks for making this gem!

Thanks so much! Looking forward to watching both videos!
Hey, thanks to you for making great games! Dress to express we actually played a little while back in a compilation, starting at 2:51 in this video. The guys happened to be a tad drunk when playing your games.
Sounds perfect!
It's Valentines day! We all know what that means! Time to through on our wrestling gear, jump in the ring and get our dating on! Wrestling with Emotions is the perfect game for those wanting to spread some love and maybe some punches!
This game was even stranger and more amazing than I thought it was going to be. It will blow your mind, patch you up and then blow it yet again! This game was a total blast, I couldnt't help but chuckle my way through it. Who knew you could combine speed dating and wrasslin'? Play this game for yourselves you will thank me...just watch my video if you want a sneak peek. Thank you TeamLazerBeam for saving Valentine's Day!!!
This game was really funny. I really loved it . Thanks for making it.

Haha! Bumpin! Thanks for playing and sharing - glad you had fun with this!
Hey, it won't let me access the game on my computer. Any help? I really want to play it haha
Hi hi!
Super sorry to hear you're struggling - trust we'll be able to get WWE up and running on your machine soon.
We're not aware of any bugs or compatability issues that might cause the game to not even launch. Is is just totally unresponsive when you click on it?
Are you using a PC or Mac?
Have you tried re-downloading the game? Maybe something went wrong and the file's incomplete?
It's a PC, an ASUS laptop. If the game was more graphically demanding, that would explain this away pretty easily, but fortunately your animations don't seem that taxing. But the game just says I don't have proper permission to access the game. I've downloaded it four different times, about ten minutes between each time.
Hey, sounds like and admin issue. Does your account have administrative privileges?
Try copying it to your desktop and right click on it and select "Run as Administratot"
It works! Thanks so much
Glad to help! Hope you have fun with the game!
Hilarious! Keeps you on your toes and HIGH replay value!!! A++
Awesome game, super funny and really fun to play
The UNSTOPPABLE PSYCHO BRO[Wrestling With Emotions]
I really enjoyed playing this game
Ah, that's lovely to hear!
Thanks so much for the support!
Looking forward to watching the video!
I definitely plan to play your other games here soon!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy them!

Whats the art style of this game called
Ben Rausch.
I love wrestling, and I love games! Happy to throw a couple dollars at this, if only to show that wrestling fans appreciate people making silly fun games using wrestling. I hope you guys make more cool stuff!
^__^ Thanks for the support!! We're working on an expansion! Romantic Rumble Edition!
This game is awesome XD me and my brothers had alot of fun playing it
I did a video of this strange but very entertaining game!
Had a ton of fun playing this game :D
Awesome! On our way to check it out! Thanks for playing and sharing!
This game is a blast! The character creation at the beginning--combined with the dialogue throughout the sim--appeals to the wrestling fan's heart. Props to Team Lazerbeam for such mad creativity...this game is ridiculously lovable!
Ah, thanks so much fore this awesome feedback Florville! So great to hear how the game resonated with you! We're currently working on an updated version call "Romance Rumble Edition" where we're planning to squeeze even more awesome into this thing!
Thanks for playing and once again for letting us know what you thought!
"Romance Rumble" sounds fantastic! It'd be hilarious to have an expansion where the speed dating is for the purpose of creating a tag team (or heck, even a faction)...with the obligatory homoerotic victory gestures when you trounce your opponents in the ring ;)
Haha! We're totally on the same page! Still need to figure out the details, but the idea is that after making 7 matches you get to participate is an 8 man free for all; The Romance Rumble!
Debuted the first 3 new wrestlers at a festival this past weekend; we're super stoked!
How do you open the game?
oh woops i need the windows one
Did you figure it out?
I forget this site existed.
Yeah,i just downloaded the windows one :P
I loved the art style so much, simplistic but very striking. A really cool, fun game!
