Ratings and reviews

Im not even through one playthrough yet and I could already tell this is the best life sim out there. Although there's a lack of features given that this is made by one person, it actually understands what it wants from a life simulator game. I loved the custom housing and the inclinations the game gives you, which helps you choose your college degree. Please continue this, its fun 🫶

Your game is awesome and I see great potential I also think you should check out successful games like bit life to see what people like but don't change your game, it's very unique. I also noticed you can only interact with a person once a year and I don't think it's nice for gameplay I also think people respond to interactions based on personality Suggestions Interactions with items in the game, interactions with furniture in houses e.g Bed for sleeping +2 health Interactions with Job

Best part of this game is the autopilot, skipping years ahead lets us watch our character's life unfold without our involvement. Tho, UI needs some improvement(especially study, job & relationship), more varied content cuz it gets repetitive after a while, fix those gender visual bugs, and pls let us pick our lover's gender, dev. Also maybe add graveyard for previous characters & achievement would be great.
