Natalia

I’m so glad I caught you guys in early development and I can be a part of the growth❤️ you guys are doing amazing

N00dlex

Looks very good! Do you already have plans concerning testing and whether Patreons will be able to apply for testing?

Maxayn Henderson

So I had a question...how did you do the steps?? I love how they are angled in the corner.

Luther Duncan

I’m soooo happy I found this game development in the very early stages and I’m very excited to be apart of the para-community and helping filter ideas into what is to be the simulation masterpiece of this generation !!! 😭👏🏽

Michael

Also, upgraded my membership to Hero. I wish I could contribute more, but I am on disability right now. Keep up the great work BTW. Love Mike.

Michael

Watched the video today and did the Wholesome Indie video stream today too. I wish they could have shown a longer video of Paralives. Most of the people were watching were there just for them! hehe

Elizabeth Gonzales

Wow, this is so beautiful! I love the furniture!

Heaven Moore

This is absolutely astonishing! Ya’ll are so fantastic!!

I love 'Sausage Chair' as a furniture name.

tey711

Can't wait to see more...loving it all, and congratulations on your beautiful design and function! Awesome team work!!

Leopoldine

That's sooooo cool, congratulations 🎉! Also I love the "sausage chair" :D !

Catalina Lunessa

Wow I love this!

I'm lovin 'it. It'd also be great if you added plugs and stuff to have a more realistic decoration. Thnx!!

Christina Ozeki

Fantastic :) :D

ramaru

Loving this! Its such a cozy warm vibe. The (temporary) minimalistic UI is also looking good, I think I can see the vision of what it's going for because for some reason or another, it kind of reminds me of looking through an actual magazine catalogue. Im also really digging the art style, it strikes a perfect balance between realism and stylized. Can't wait to see the video, I'm sure it'll add an entire new level of charm and life to these images!

Kanchaross J.

Look so cosy! I can't wait to see the full videos both on the Wholesome Direct and Youtube. Also, The UI is nice and simple!

Looks great! Question: are the modular couches suppose to look mix matched or is that lighting? :)

Breanna

Every time you guys post something it makes me want to play this game even more! As an avid builder in the “game that shall not be named” I’m loving what build-mode is looking like and the sheer amount of customization possible! Lots of love from BC ❤️

BooDotBoo .

I can’t wait to see the video! I love the living room; I actually like the name “sausage chair”, lol.

Fran Smith

I made a comment elsewhere, but I'm actually wondering, will Paralives have optional and user editable key bindings? To help minimise the user interface and make some often used options quicker for those who play a lot?

Fran Smith

I'd actually like to see them pop out from a kind of minimal side position. Most computer screens are quite rectangular these days, too rectangular, as if they were built for cinematic use. There is more room lengthwise then there is at the bottom - game pictures already are too narrow vertically. Lots of newer games are putting them at the side these days. If you play a lot, you get used to them regardless of where they are situated. I'd like to see either a small popup button on one of either sides of the screen, or even better an option to have them not visual at all, just optional binded keyboard shortcut, perhaps, so that they take up no space on the screen until you need it. Lots of user editable key binding opinions would be great! (hint, hint), eg numbers for choosing a Para, V for verbals, I for inventory, C for change clothes, T for travel, S for sleep etc. Lots of other options too.

Codi

It looks so good

JessIsMore

Well done team! Thankyou for your hard work! We are all excited, but we all know that good things take time - so keep taking the time you need and we will be cheering you all the way!

!!! Our first proof a real playable game exists! Finally we can tell the haters to go somewhere else when they call this wonderful project a scam.

Alex Massé

Thank you! We are aiming to make it so you don't necessarily have to pause the game to build and buy objects

Jasmine

I really like this game style it reminds me a little bit of the tenants

Tini

I can’t wait to see the video tomorrow, it looks so cozy ❤️

Tamari

It looks amazing!

Brandi Werthner

Just when I think I’m not excited enough there’s a new post 🤣🖤

I can't wait until tomorrow!!

Alina Gold

So exciting omg it looks awesome 😭😭

hjs_wells

I love how the UI looks very simple and clean. It's definitely the intuitive approach that I'd love to see in a life sim game. I like how the build mode catalog is able to expand down the length of the window as its easier to skim through. Is build mode still accessible during live play mode? I ask because the play button is highlighted in one of the pictures with the build mode catalog toggled.

Anja Hoffmann

I want to move in there ... honestly, this looks so nice and cosy.

Toria Stock

I'm of the thought process that those other games are keeping tabs on Paralives because they know they're losing their fan base and are releasing things that are going to be base game in Paralives because we are excited about Paralives

Alex Massé

Thank you Sarah! That's certainly a challenge, yes! We're still working on basements and we'll have to make sure that lowering items into the ground works well with basements. We have an idea on how to do it so we're confident!

Joanna Hinds

The UI is impressing meeeeee

Mari R.

the shift key feature gives me the planet zoo feels! thank you for adding this! the possibilities!!!

teszter.bp

I'm in love with the colours 😍

Aahhh!! I’m so excited! It is so clear that all of you work so so hard to make this for all of us. I’m proud to support you!! Thank you so much 🙌🙌🙌🙌✨

Sarah

The catalog looks so GOOD!! Especially considering it's still in early stages! I LOVE all the detail and clutter (am I seeing coat racks where you can hang items, like the ice skates?!). Also, I can't remember if basements are confirmed or not, but has there been any thought to how lowering items into the ground will affect basements (if they are to be implemented)? I remember reading or hearing somewhere that Sims 4 devs ran into that issue when they tried to allow items to be lowered into the ground. Hoping it won't be an issue for Paralives! :) Keep up the great work, and take your time!!

Alex Massé

Thank you! We'd like to test making it so you can expand UI windows and see more or less objects at once

Lily Tindel

I think there’s a video shown early on that shows the ability to drag items. As in, you can make them bigger or smaller with height, but I’m not sure if you’re able to do so in terms of left or right drag to make things bigger.

Oh my goodness!!!!! 😍😍😍

Maddalena Segato

Loving the simple look of the UI. It would be great to be able to customize the number of columns and rows you see with a click and drag corner at the bottom right of the catalog, so you can decide on the go how much scrolling vs. how much background obstruction you want/need.

Vic

Oh lordy this is FABULOUS

Holly Kinglund

woaw that's beautiful! I only have a small recommendation: I think you wanted to stand out by placing the items on the left side, but it would be good to integrate an option to put them at the bottom, in the classic way because I think it goes quickly be painful. see you soon, I can't wait! sorry for my bad English ✨

Petition for the chair to forever be called “the sausage”

It's fascinating seeing this be implemented so early on while other games are putting in things like L sofas and platforms 5+ years after release. I'm so hyped for this game!

Kiiiwiii

Are we able to resize items as in. "Make the lamp bigger or smaller" not just in dragging it to be a floor lamp instead of desk?

Ahhh I want it now! It looks so great, kudos to the team!

Alex Massé

That could be fun to create a whole house in yellow! Maybe we can look into it later to see if it's possible to add that as a feature!

Shelly Rice

Love it ❤️❤️

BekkiRoss

I just got another idea for the catalog. Not sure if it has been suggested already, but what if you could pick a color on the color wheel, and every item's base/main color in the catalog would turn to that color? Would that be possible?

Jade Young

Please keep the postage stamp looking thing in the lower right hand corner!

Krissy

I agree that it should be called sausage chair lol

Krissy

Wow! That you for sharing this looks awesome. I hope the postage stamp looking things are here to stay I love that look!

Phoenix

The "sausage chair" is the only correct name for that chair.

Aleksandra

Can't wait to see the video 😭 I love it <3

Wooooow amazing😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Sophie Goodman-Merel

I'm sure you already are doing this, but make sure to have very detailed subcategories so players aren't stuck searching through long lists of items for one little thing

BekkiRoss

Looks amazing! 🤩 Can't wait for tomorrow 🤩

Looks amazing!

Sophie Goodman-Merel

Excited about seeing the UI development! Easy searchability for items and category tags make building so much easier

Zahlea

This looks totally amazing. You've blown me away, as always!! ❤️

Deborah Aittokallio

This looks so good

Alex Massé

Look closer!

LightDeficient

This looks absolutely amazing! Good job team!!!❤️🙏

Emma Pelletier

I love it but I'm quite disapointed... WHERE IS THE BEAR ?

Kerry Wong

WOW!!! i can't wait to be able to build in this game myseld!!

Alfie

I AM SO EXCITED

Aww

wow!!! amazing!!! i would just like to add that i much prefer to wait and get a complete and polished finished product than a half-built game by the promised release date where you don’t even have the pool or terrain tools. thanks for the preview! can’t wait for the video!

Moving objects above and below the ground is awesome! I can just thing of all the creative possibilities that this can provide with the many builds to come!
