Léa here to bring you fresh screenshots from the game to showcase new build mode items!
Designing a Full House to Explore the Live Mode
As you probably already know, the team has been working hard on various aspects of the Live Mode and we needed a small home to test various aspects of Paralives’ gameplay. Our Parafolks needed to have access to many items to take care of their needs, so might as well make it fun and colorful!
A complete floor plan with everything our Parafolks need to fulfill their needs.
We wanted a big living space to showcase our modern furniture and decor. We chose to lean more into an industrial interior with metal, leather, and dark colors.
A cozy living room with everything you need to distract yourself from a stressful day. On the walls, you can see a new painting called ‘’Kroy Wen’’ created by Chloé.
Next comes the kitchen. Obviously, our Parafolks needed somewhere to cook their meals and have a cup of coffee in the morning. Because sometimes you need technology to simplify your life: dishwashers and small appliances are making their way into our Parafolks’ home!
A colorful kitchen with clutters on the shelves and small appliances. Keep in mind that this house has been made to test things out, including those small interactable objects, you might not be able to place them as they are on the picture if it leads to technical issues later on. Also, some items might not be functional and just be clutter.
What is that behind the curtain? A washer-dryer set! We still haven’t decided on their use in terms of gameplay, but at least you can enjoy the view and remind yourself that you should probably do your own laundry.
After a long day of cooking and distracting yourself, it’s time to get cozy: grab a book, or practice your musical skill! We added new industrial pieces of furniture, a brand-new bed, and a piano.
A small bedroom with a comfortable bed and lots of books!
The dresser from Maggie’s loft has been reworked and we added lockers to create a matching set. In the foreground, you have a closer look at the new piano!
The house being small, it was perfect for our new independent shower head.
A tiny bathroom with everything our Parafolks might want to use to tend to their hygiene need and a new mirror for them to reflect on their existence.
Finally, with summer just around the corner, it was time to add our barbecue to the mix and create an outdoor living space for our Parafolks!
A cozy and intimate patio that the Parafolks can access through the bedroom.
We hope you liked our little house, it’s gonna be really helpful for us to test all the new Live Mode features. We’re still adding more pieces of furniture, appliances, and clutter to the game. We look forward to showcasing them soon!
Have a nice weekend!

I’m sure you’re obviously working on more furniture styles, but with this game giving off such a cosy vibe, more cottagecore style furniture would be amazing! Brilliant job so far though, I’m so excited for this!

OMG!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I WANT IT ❤️❤️
I like that the style of the game is like a watercolor painting. Makes it seem more laid back overall. Also different from The Sims and Life By You. I am looking forward to playing Maggie's Loft a lot. Always wanted to live in a loft like that and can act out the fantasy.

This is so beautiful! What a cozy and colorful home. I love the cat picture above the bedroom and I love the touches of clutter. It makes it feel lived in.
