![]() What would the game look like in a year or two? These videos sparked many more questions for me but I also liked the insight into the game’s development. The resizing of objects so easily and freely I think would come in very handy especially if you weren’t too sure how something would look because of the size of the object or the placement but you could then go and make the object bigger or smaller in just a click or two rather than having to potentially find an alternative object instead.Įvery time a new video was released I was curious to see how over time things had developed. There was also videos of object placement and resizing as well as one that showcased how the audio would sound and work with different objects. ![]() The flexibility of building a home with the tools that have been shown really gives you the idea of just how many possibilities there are for creating that dream home. These included curved walls, split level building tools, lot editing, the range of different units of measurement for when you are building as well. I didn’t think too much about it and put it to the back of my mind.Īs the rest of twenty-nineteen continued the creator of Paralives, Alex Massé followed up the initial screenshot with a series of short videos that showcased some more early development features. Taking a closer look I realised it wasn’t but you could see some similarities. At first, I thought it was an early development screenshot of the next The Sims game as it looked somewhat similar to The Sims 4. The first time I heard about Paralives was when an image of a small looking home started to appear all over my timeline on Twitter a day or so after it was first uploaded in early July last year. The name Paralives is a reference to parallel lives, allowing players to live different virtual lives and build homes to stage them.” ![]() That’s why Paralives let’s you explore a cozy open world neighborhood filled with shops, parks, workplaces and other interesting spots to discover and meet people. Just select an object, pull the corner anchors and make that window larger or upgrade that single bed to a king bed!Ĭreating the best life for your Parafolks couldn’t be possible without enjoying what the town has to offer beyond the walls of their houses. You want to recreate your real life home? Use the in-game measuring tape to recreate the exact dimensions! You can also fully customize object colors and textures as well as the size of windows and furniture. Your perfect house contains curved or slanted walls? Paralives has the tools for that.

The simulation mode allows players to explore a city full of events, people to meet and ways to make their Parafolks evolve and live a happy life (or not, if they choose to)!īuilding a dream house requires a lot of flexible tools. ![]() The game features innovative build tools that are easy to use but powerful for advanced builders. In Paralives, you are free to build homes, create characters and manage their lives inside their homes and all around an open world town. “Paralives is an upcoming doll house life simulation indie game for PC and Mac. Now if you don’t know what Paralives is, here is a quick description of the game. It is simply a reflection of what I personally think about the game and what the community has seen through development updates and reveals so far. I haven’t made this post as a Paralives is better than “X” game or to start arguments over aspects of the game. Let’s fast forward to twenty-nineteen and an Indie game called Paralives appears and it started to gain a fair amount of attention which is great! While the game is still in development at this moment, regular updates are provided online via the creator’s Twitter, Patreon, the official Paralives site and a number of fansites.īefore I talk more about Paralives, I need to make this clear. As convincing as it seemed, Project Vie was, in fact, a hoax. The game gained a lot of attention and claimed to be better than The Sims as well as being a direct competitor to it. This was until the past few years.īack in twenty-seventeen, a game that was going by the name of Project Vie started circulating online. In the franchises twenty-year life span we haven’t really seen many games that are incredibly similar to that of The Sims. ![]() Yet, when I think of life simulation games, my mind instantly goes to The Sims franchise and admittedly for many of us it would be the same. If you were to type life simulation games into Google it would give you a vast selection of games including the likes of Bitlife and Animal Crossing to name a couple. ![]()
